    Patriot Viper II Sector 7 3X2GB DDR3 1600MHZ 8-8-8-24

    I love that chassis; it's nice. My only real complaint is that you can't use the USB 3.0 front ports if you install a second top fan. Seems like a weird oversight.

    OCZ Technology at CES 2011

    I agree to all that, but the thing is, it's just not our target audience at all, and with such an exorbitant price, I knew it'd be a humorous joke to them if I asked for a review sample. Sites like AnandTech might be better suited to tackle such products since it handles the enterprise side of...

    Superbowl predictions?

    It's a bit late in the season to begin predicting which team will win the Superbowl, but it's still wide-open, so who cares?! I guess we'll be learning a lot after today's games, but I do expect both Green Bay and Patriots to do quite well... both teams might well end up at the Superbowl, at...

    OCZ Technology at CES 2011

    Ahh, I was being sarcastic. It just happens to be $8,000 and not in our target audience :D They got a good laugh when I asked to review it.

    OCZ Technology at CES 2011

    If you love SSDs, OCZ Technology's suite at the Aria hotel in Las Vegas was the place to be during CES. On display were the company's IBIS drives, the Vertex 3 EX and Pro, the short Z-Drive R3, along with 80 Plus power supplies for both the OCZ and PC Power & Cooling brand, and yes, even some...

    Thermaltake at CES 2011

    At its hotel suite setup for CES, Thermaltake didn't have a <em>lot</em> of product to show off, but what it <em>did</em> is worthy of looking into. That includes the company's upcoming high-end CPU cooler, the "OCK", its feature-packed Armor A30 mini chassis, the "budget" Level 10 GT, its Max...

    Man Gets 30 Months for Selling Pirated Games

    He didn't mean that at all. It's one thing to steal a game because you're too cheap to pay for it, but it's another to steal a game you had nothing to do with and then make money off of it.

    OCZ Technology To Discontinue Memory Products

    22% is HUGE. I'm sure OCZ wishes it was even close to being that high.

    Windows XP Built in LittleBigPlanet 2

    I'd love to know how long that thing took to create. It's pimp!

    Lucid Enables Quick Sync Using Discrete Graphics On Sandy Bridge

    I really want to get my hands on this tech to give it a go. It's definitely a niche product, but it has real potential to be useful if it spreads out into all future platforms.

    NVIDIA Dual GPU Spotted At CES

    It's too bad that the card uses mid-range GPUs rather than something like the GeForce GTX 580, but oh well... it's still an interesting beast. Have any of these dual-GPU prototypes EVER hit the market, though? They seem to be shown off at every single event, but I don't remember seeing one at...

    OCZ Technology To Discontinue Memory Products

    I talked to OCZ about this last week, and I admit... it upset me. OCZ was one of the first memory companies I ever came to get excited about. I loved its products, and loved even more overclocking them. When the XTC design came out, I was stoked... it was a great-looking design and end up being...

    Samsung Develops the First 30nm DDR4 DRAM

    I still can't believe DDR4 isn't available yet. I remember talking to OCZ about it in like 2006, and I think I expected to see it by now at least. Of course, is it even needed? That's the big question. People are still surviving on DDR2 just fine. I agree with this 100%.

    ASRock Transformer - More Than Meets The Eye?

    It sounds a little bizarre to me. It'd be kind of like upgrading a car by replacing the entire chassis but leaving the engine in-tact. Well, in some cases that at least makes sense, but I'm not sure about a motherboard. When you upgrade to a better CPU, the differences can be huge. Upgrading...

    Sapphire to Launch Two High End Motherboards

    The choice if releasing an X58 board at this point in time is a little bizarre, but I guess it boils down to the fact that it's the lone choice for the ultimate Intel high-end, and it might even have been silly to not support it. So far, the board looks quite good. I'm just curious to see what...

    Will 2011 Be the Year of Mobile Malware?

    LOL! I sure hope that'd be true ;-) I agree though, I expected mobile malware to have been a problem already, but I guess such devices are a bit more difficult to get into. I'm just wondering how long it will take before we start seeing anti-malware programs being sold for mobile phones. It...

    House of Marley Audio Products Help Fulfill Bob Marley's Beliefs

    I like the ghetto box there, it looks cool. I really wish I had a chance to listen to anything there, but generally I avoid most "consumer" audio because it's never done too well. I should have broken my rule for these guys.

    Razer Switchblade Mobile Gaming Concept PC

    The potential this thing has is huge. I can't see it being a device I'd use to be honest, but being that mobile is big business, I could see a lot of gamers wanting to take advantage of it. The biggest downfall I see is the lack of a real keyboard, but that's what makes this thing not a...
