    Steam tries out Friends List again

    I've got Xfire.. but I don't use it.. :/. Don't have anybody to add really. I've just heard so much crap about the friends list, and it's good that they've finally gotten it done.

    Overclocking Tools

    Well adding Coolbits itself is almost pointless considering it's built into the nvidia drivers. You make a good point that it could be listed by itself, but seeing how it's built into the drivers itself, I don't see a need to list it. You can put a link up if you feel quite so inclined.

    Overclocking Tools

    The new nvidia drivers come with their own frequency adjustments. You just have to unlock the feature ;). Using NvTweak as part of the Ntune program you can unlock clock freqencies adjustment for your video card. It actually has a box titled "Coolbits" with Advanced D3D, Clock Frequencies, and...

    New Chipset Heatsink?

    I've installed an Arctic Cooler 5 on my 7800GT, and ever since I noticed that my chipset temps were a bit higher. I'd say 3-5C or more. I looked at the sink when I first noticed the increase and saw a bulk of the AC5 covering about half of the chipset fan. Right now the cpu is at 26c and the...

    The Un-official Jokes Thread

    Daily Briefing Donald Rumsfeld is giving President Bush his daily briefing. He concludes by saying: "Yesterday, three Brazilian soldiers were killed in an accident." "Oh, no!" president Bush exclaims. "That's terrible!" His staff sits stunned at this...

    Steelpad QcK+

    That's huge!! That's about all I can say. It looks good but man is it expensive on real estate. I actually think that's about the size of my monitor screen. I know that mousepads do make a difference, but personally I like a small pad. The one I have now is only 8"x10" if that. I use a fairly...

    Silverstone Strider ST56F 560W PSU

    Silverstone has been around a good long time and have always provided excellent products. The 30Amp rating for the power supply is very strong. For the price I think they could have wrapped the cables fully. You can pick up a modular psu for about the same price with nicer cables. Either way...

    Vista is not so memory hungry

    It's good to see that the new os is not so resource hungry, but it makes 256mb the standard ram. Which, in my opinion, isn't enough anyway. I had the Longhorn theme for xp and I did like the different buttons and transparency it added. Like others, I won't jump on it as soon as it comes out. It...

    Pizza or Burger?

    There's a burger joint around Bristol, TN. I visited a friend up there and he took me to this place, and OH BOY they make some great burgers. It's called Pal's, and I ate there 4 out of the 7 nights I was up there lol. THere's only 3 stores that I'm aware of, all around the Kingsport and Bristol...

    Microsoft Wireless Laser Desktop 6000

    There's definitely a market for the product, it's just that gamer's aren't it. Like you mentioned, that seems like something a photo editor would love, or even one who types a lot. The ergonomic design is easier on the hands, physically. The dpi in the mouse is another good thing that would...

    Lab Produces 3.6 Billion Degree Gas

    Did you guys actually read the article? http://www.livescience.com/technology/060308_sandia_z.html It's pretty much self-explanatory on how they reached the extreme temps. I don't doubt there's other thermal measurements and devices we haven't seen or heard of being used.

    XG Ninja 2 Case

    That's the same similar case design as my first one. These make great basic cases or for those just getting into pc building. I removed the front and rear fan grills with a dremel to increase air flow. I also added a low flow fan to the bottom blowing in. I like the design and the power supply...

    Nvidia 7900 Is relaesed - review list

    I would wait for the 8x line before doing that. If Nvidia follows the same track you would likely get a better performer for the same price. These cards are quite nice and the performance is pretty impressive, but if you're going all out wait for the next generation.

    BF2 or BF2 SF

    It really is great fun. I do wish it had sequence battles similar to the original, but other than that it's awesome.
