Well, it appears that you can pay for pretty much ANYTHING nowadays, and that includes paying for a "simulated kidnapping" - that's when you are kidnapped at random and held hostage for between 4 - 10 hours. No idea on pricing, but I'm sure it's expensive...

Sometimes... I just can't help but link to headlines that are both borderline retarded, yet hilarious. http://www.reuters.com/article/idUSTRE6622I420100703

Yeah it was little surprise that Villa ended up coming off. I wish Fabregas was relied upon more... he's hardly been played the entire WC. I still wear my Fabregas shirt each match though :D

The thing is, though, it doesn't matter which instructions the GPU can handle, because that's not the argument. The argument is that PhysX, to a limited degree, <em>will</em> use SSE, but on a 1:100 scale compared to x87. The CPU <em>can</em> use SSE, obviously, but NVIDIA chooses to use...

Agreed * 10. So, Spain vs. Netherlands in the final... CAN'T WAIT. :D

In today's high-end computing game, it's not uncommon to see people equip their PC's with at least 8GB or 12GB of RAM, depending on whether they're using a dual or triple-channel memory controller. Personally, I use 12GB, as it's a nice compliment to my Core i7, and yes, I do manage to take...

I don't play WoW, so I'm unfortunately unable to give a screenshot, but the game is on AMD's Validated list, meaning that it's one of the best games to use for Eyefinity. By the looks of things it's not designed for 3x2, but works great with 3x1...

I prefer clean designs also, and the fact that I'm using a CM Storm Sniper as my current chassis makes me feel a little strange, haha. If I could "upgrade" the chassis on a dime, I'd go with something like Corsair's 700D... it's just ultra-clean, and super classy. Like its fan controllers, NZXT...

Where the term "hardcore gamer" is concerned, not everyone will generally agree on what it means. For some, the term "hardcore" comes when you have achieved somewhat of an elite status in a game, or series of games, and for others, it could simply determine that someone games a lot... as in...

Although NZXT produces a wide-range of products, its fan controllers have become one of the highlights of its line-ups. The reasons are threefold: features, performance and price. We were left quite impressed with earlier Sentry models, and we can say that NZXT has done it once again with its...

Valve's Orange Box is considered to be a longstanding success, but some credit the regular updates for Team Fortress 2 as having something to do with it. This week, the game will be receiving potentially its last major class update, although it is sure that future minor updates and the odd new...

I predict Netherlands vs. Spain in the final, and if it happens, that's going to be an exciting match. Still, I can't rule Germany out... I just wish Jens Lehmann was capable of being the GK this time around, miss watching him play.

When Ubuntu's Lucid Lynx (10.04) was set out to pasture this past April, it brought a couple of interesting features to the table. The most obvious might be the desktop theme overhaul, but other important changes included improved NVIDIA driver support, the removal of a default GIMP...

I love mobile computing, but unlike most people, I can't stand using mobile phones or similar devices to get work done on the go, except for the absolute simplest of needs. I tend to turn to notebooks quite often, and if I leave town, I make sure one's never that far from me. If I leave the...

I read about Lamptron's "Spectral Bar" on the Overclock.net forums, and they're kind of interesting. It's a CCFL as the title suggests, but what makes them interesting is that the inverter is built-in. That means there will be no ridiculous box to find room for inside your chassis, enabling you...

Did you buy one? :D

I have no idea how I missed your reply to this thread :o Your PC looks sweet man! Nice and clean, that's for sure. I've never quite seen SATA cables like that... did you do that by yourself or buy them that way? You probably won't have to worry about the orientation of the heatsink really...

Welcome to the forums :-) Have you entered the configuration options from within the game? You should be able to set that up no problem at all. By default, F2 is for reverse thrust if memory serves, so you could just look through the options there for whatever F2 is assigned to and see if you...

Just decent? Are you a Sonic fan?! It looks INCREDIBLE! I just hope that SEGA doesn't force usage of the motion control too much, because that's one of the reasons I haven't even turned on my Wii in over two years... just no interest.

Since it's been a little while since we last took a look at Valve's hardware survey, I figured now would be a good time to do so, for a couple of reasons. The big one being that Macs are now included in the results, giving us a relatively good idea of the success of Steam on that platform, since...
