    YouTube issues with Chrome?

    You're right... heh. It was indeed a cache issue. I have no idea why I didn't think to do that, since it's usually one of the first things I do. Just never had a cache affect me quite like that before. Thanks, man!

    All-in-one liquid coolers are everywhere lately with the latest one announced yesterday at the Intel Developer Forum (IDF), still ongoing in San Francisco. Intel and water cooling?

    YouTube issues with Chrome?

    I am having a problem with YouTube and Chrome, which is odd since both are Google products. In Chrome, the videos I watch will never buffer. I even had one sit for 3 full minutes, and there was no progress at all. With Internet Explorer, all is well. The videos start buffering right from the...

    Support for Thunderbolt Strong at IDF

    At the start of summer, we asked, "Is Intel's Thunderbolt Dead in the Water?". At that time, it seemed like that could be the case, thanks to expensive chipsets, cables and even products - not to mention a lack of products in general. With a multitude of companies supporting Thunderbolt showing...

    Google Launches Super-Fast Flight Searching Site

    Google tends to launch more projects than I can keep track of, and despite their volume, it's a rare day when one of them strikes me as being amazing. Google Flights finds itself under that exact description, because after a couple of quick tests, I could see me using this as my primary source...

    AMD Sets Guinness World Record for CPU Frequency

    Well what impresses me most is that fact that this was done with an eight-core processor. AFAIK, the Celeron record before it was a single core.

    Thermaltake Frio OCK & Jing CPU Coolers Review

    All CPU coolers promise effective CPU cooling, but how each one manages their goal can vary wildly. One may be super-quiet but be the size of a car, while another may be modest-sized but sound like a jet engine. The Frio OCK and Jing from Thermaltake aren't so extreme, but make a perfect case...

    Gamer revolt

    I can't help but check out the Steam forums for games I am anticipating right before a launch, because sometimes it's a great way to soak in a ton of info at once, and also see the whiners come out in full force. Nowadays, if a game is delayed at the last minute or it releases to a couple of...

    8 beers in America with plummeting sales

    Though there are some exceptions, I'm inclined to agree - at least where mass-produced beer is concerned. There are still a lot of beers in the US that are good, but most come from the lower-tier of the mainstream or micro-brews (Samuel Adams is one exception of what I consider to be a great...
