When information began to leak out earlier this year regarding the chipsets planned to be paired up with Intel's upcoming Sandy Bridge processors, the 6-series (P67 as an example), one of the more interesting details about it was the absolute lack of USB 3.0 support, something that many...

It's far from being a secret that Windows 7 has been an overall success, and sales-wise, Microsoft's Brandon LeBlanc has re-verified that fact with a report that 150 million licenses have been sold since the OS' launch this past October. Unfortunately, whether or not this number represents...

For most people, there is no such thing as a CPU vs. GPU battle, but for companies like Intel and NVIDIA, there is such a thing, and it's heated. Naturally, gaming wouldn't be stellar if the only acceleration came from the GPU, and likewise, we wouldn't get too far with our OS running off of a...

In a news post I made on Monday regarding OCZ's latest 1.8-inch solid-state drives, I mentioned that where 2.5-inch models are concerned, the options are near-limitless. While I believe that to be true, there's one thing that needs to be considered... where these SSD's can be found. As...

Are you a hardcore Google fan? Think you know all there is to know about the company, it's practises, and products? You might want to reserve that thought until you take a look at a top ten list produced by social media tracking site Mashable. For example, did you know that it wasn't until...

When VideoLAN Project released the 1.0.0 version of VLC last fall, it delivered a piece of software well worth its major version increment, thanks to countless bug fixes and a complete framework overhaul. As impressive as that release was, though, the developers seem to have outdone...

When Thermaltake first unveiled its FRIO CPU cooler, the company promised that it would be one of the best-performing models it's ever released. Now that we've had the opportunity to put our sample through our usual battery of tests, we can attest to that claim being true. To top it off, the...

As useful as the Internet clearly is, connecting to it opens up a massive can of worms where personal security is concerned. With everything from malware to viruses to other forms of vulnerability exploits, there's a lot to consider when trying to improve your PC's security and personal...

It seems fair that expansion packs could be considered, given it's still all one big game and not stand-alone. Thanks to a 1.2GB patch released for Napoleon: Total War just today, the folder's total size is now 22.3GB!

As I'm sure is quite obvious, USB 3.0 was a major focus at this month's Computex 2010 event , with vendors all over displaying their wares for our perusal. Many USB 3.0 companies at the moment consist of motherboard vendors or enclosure manufacturers, not to mention add-in providers, but...

How much time would you say you spend online each day... or month? Think about it for a minute and the result might scare you. Of all that time spent online, how exactly are you spending it? Financial information site VisualEconomics has put together a poster with the help of Pew and Nielsen...

Have you looked at all 37%? :D

Haha, I love it. So simple, but effective. That's just it... there's a major difference between fans singing on occasion and people -constantly- blowing into these noise-makers that emit sounds up past 100dBA. I couldn't imagine being in that stadium at the time. Earplugs would be a requirement.

I think I mentioned it before, but I'm a Dutch fan also... some wicked footballers there! Yes, that was unbelievable. It doesn't make the official look too innocent when he has this huge grin on his face while asking Fabiano if he did a handball. It's as if he knew for certain there was hand...

Same here! I remember when Duke Nukem 3D came out, and I had a 500MB hard drive. I was SO stoked that I knew I'd be able to install the game some 16 times if I wanted to. Of course that's pointless, but it helped me feel like I had a ton of storage back then, haha. Mods don't count! We're...

No, unfortunately, I don't mean largest as in game world. Rather, largest as in how much space it takes up on a hard drive. I thought I saw the biggest before, at around 12 or 13GB, but Napoleon: Total War puts even that one to shame: Does anyone know of a game that games up more hard drive...

The moment millions of iPhone and third-gen iPod touch users have been waiting for is here... iOS 4 has been released to the wild. The OS formally known as iPhone OS is now available for installation (via iTunes) and as expected, brings a slew of new features and other enhancements. Of them...
