Heat-spreaders aren't the most attractive out there, but that looks to be the only thing wrong with them :D Great kit,and great build. You're going to love it.

I hate to keep harping on Nintendo, but it chooses the worst names out there, bar none. Case in point: Donkey Kong Country Returns Mario Kart Wii Mario Party New Super Mario Bros. Wii Wii Sports To name a few.

Let's assume Newegg... Motherboard: ASUS Sabertooth 55i P55 - $150 http://bit.ly/9Rysvs Processor: Intel Core i5-750 - $200 http://bit.ly/d5c5gG Graphics Card: HD 6870 - $240 http://bit.ly/97Gwoj Memory: Corsair XMS 4GB Kit x 2 - $150 http://bit.ly/aXN8CW Hard Drive: Western Digital Caviar...

After months of speculation and beta-testing, Microsoft updated the Xbox Live Dashboard earlier today, so the next time you hop onto the service, you'll be prompted to install it. The major feature of this update is to enable Kinect support, but there are a couple of other notable introductions...

Consoles have been doing this for far longer, with Nintendo being one of the worst offenders. I do kind of like my see-thru green N64, though...

I do think things need to change a bit, but we're on the right path. The first problem with Seagate's solution is that it has a measly 4GB of NAND flash, so things like games, most applications and other things don't stand to see a real benefit over time. On the desktop side, I think it'd be...

According to most Web developers, HTML5 is something worth being excited about, because it's designed to take the Web to the next level. While many websites today rely on things like Adobe Flash to run robust content, HTML5 is able to replace them when done right. This is especially true where...

A couple of weeks ago, we talked about a special Japan-only Nintendo Wii bundle that was being released to help celebrate Mario's 25th anniversary, and well, if you were disappointed at the exclusivity there, this news might cheer you up. Either Nintendo had a change of heart, of the demand was...

The allure of an SSD is one that's difficult to ignore, but with pricing still in the realm of limited adoption, many are choosing to wait things out. But what about taking a baby step into the SSD world, with a hard drive that equips a mechanical design with some NAND flash to speed things up...

As far as technology goes, there's little that's quite as interesting as a supercomputer. They're powerful beyond comprehension, and there are many of them scattered around the earth. It's not too often though, that a new supercomputer gets announced that sets the bar much higher than before...

Long before Techgage came to be, a hobby (or perhaps addiction) of mine was discovering and playing MMORPG games. My first real foray into an MMO was with Asheron's Call in early 2002, and that's a game I still play today. Another game I sunk a countless number of hours into was Lineage II...

Of all the things we can do with our PCs, an often ignored task is keeping our personal data safe. Past that, there's also a general lack of planning of what to do in the event of an OS crash. Acronis' True Image Home 2011 tackles both of these scenarios plus many more, and as we've found out...

Hi emblue and welcome to the forums! :D To be honest, moving from 2GB of RAM to 3GB isn't going to make a large difference, although moving from 2GB to 4GB could if using a 64-bit OS. Unless you're juggling huge images in Photoshop, or editing videos to re-encode, it's not too important to...

As has been proven many times over the years, Apple is a company that wants to be the best at what it does. One of its major focuses is integration, and because of such keen attention to that, we've seen some of the smallest digital products on the market come straight out of Cupterino. Take the...

If you were using the Internet about 10 years ago, you understand well what the landscape was like at the time. The hot topic was file sharing, and while consumers were thriving on it, the music industry, among others, were not having any of it at all. In 1999, the trend-setting Napster came...

By the sheer number of SSD-related news posts that get put up in a given day, it's easy to imagine that almost everyone, and every company, are confidently standing behind the technology. But, that's not entirely the case, especially where mechanical hard drive vendors are concerned. Though...

I'm not too sure about that touch button pad under the spacebar, but it does look like it has potential. I'll be honest in saying I'd 10x quicker just get a BlackWidow which retails for less. They look almost identical, and as long as you have some macro capabilities, I don't see the real draw...

I LOVE the cabling on those things. Looks so much better than the usual solid-color plastic.

That's a sweet build :D That chassis for that price looks like a steal. All built, it looks great! I'm constantly impressed by what you get for your money these days... LOL! That's a feeling I know all too well. It seriously sucks when you get everything perfect, and then realize you need to...
