    Command & Conquer 4 Includes Internet Connection DRM

    Hmm...I like tactics games after cutting my teeth on Shining Force way back on the Genesis. I may have to check this out even though most seem to think it's terrible.

    Looking for suggestions for heatsinks to review

    Proprietary fans are of the debil!

    Where are all the Fermi haters now?

    Just like with cars there will always be those with more money than brains that will want the best of the best no matter how much it costs or what alternatives there are. Those are the people who will snatch up the initial Nvidia offering.

    Command & Conquer 4 Includes Internet Connection DRM

    CRACK! Again, the only time I support cracking copyright protection is when you actually own the game and don't want to tool around with the disk or in this instance where you need a stable connection just to play a single player game. While I don't like this method it's nice to know that...

    Sun VirtualBox - Free, Powerful Virtualization

    This has a bunch of us at work interested since we are looking to rock out with a Mac OS. Thanks for the info, Rob!

    Where are all the Fermi haters now?

    Ahh, now that needs some explaination I think. The 10.3 drivers seem to show a performance improvement in just about all scenerios and it looks like AMD is giving the drivers the attention that ATI never did.

    Intel Releases TRIM-Supporting RAID Drivers

    I know a greasy spoon here in my home town that would give more rear throughput than any drives in RAID ever could. Nice catch, Tech-Daddy. Hehehe.

    Ooh, good call, Eunoia. I forgot about that.

    Looking for suggestions for heatsinks to review

    What about picking up a quality fan to use right across the board as well? There may be a bomb-diggity heatsink but the manufacturer chose to put a low CFM fan on it or just a plain crappy one and it is affecting performance.

    I thought he left INQ for FUD...or did he leave for SemiAccurate?

    The Sleeper

    Thanks. Didn't mean to thread jack your awesome mod log. I'm looking forward to seeing this, especially since I am a huge fan of the Tempest.

    The Sleeper

    Good to know. I'm wondering if the same process would work on the inside of an Antec Three Hundred? The inside coatings seem similar.

    Where are all the Fermi haters now?

    It's nice being an impartial onlooker based on price versus performance. A lot of what is going on is pretty funny. Nividia touting PhysX like it is a gift from heaven and bashing DX11 as a useless piece of technology, AMD firing away on Nividia on (I believe) the Hexus forum...this is the...

    The Sleeper

    One question - did you use the self etching primer over the existing pain? How did you prep the surface? Everything that I have read says that self etching primer should be used only on bare metal. If it can go right over an already painted surface that will save me a ton of time if I plan...

    EVGA's Dual-Socket W555 Debuts as the Classified SR-2

    Congrats to them and boo to me! That thing could have sold for a small fortune.

    It's coming from Fudzilla but I hear that the yields for Fermi cards are still under 50%. Again, it's coming from Fudzilla so reader beware, especially where Charlie is found.

    EVGA's Dual-Socket W555 Debuts as the Classified SR-2

    I don't recall seeing this entry in the thread. Even a forum search of SR2 in the general section yielded no results. Hmm...

    OCZ Technology Shutters Hypersonic-PC

    Hey, if it makes OCZ stronger then I am all for it. I have used their memory exclusively and have never had so much as a hiccup even when overvolting. They have given awesome support and are even taking my PSU on RMA without the original receipt so I expect to have at least one component in my...

    Which One?

    So I spend most of the night wiping my 3 hard drives in my current rig and installing XP, loading the most current drivers, blah, blah, blah in order to get it ready for delivery to the buyer. I switch out PSU's, throw the switch and...nothing. Well, there was something. The PSU isn't...
