From our front-page news: DDR3 first launched on the desktop last May, and since then adoption has been slow. It's no surprise, however, due to high cost of ownership, whereas DDR2 is so inexpensive, it can cost a mere $300 to have 8GB of RAM in your rig. So why pay multiple hundreds for DDR3...

It's not too often that the fastest single-GPU available is also affordable, but the 9800 GTX is just that. At just over $300, it delivers incredible performance at all resolutions and also turns out to be amazingly overclockable. It's just too bad that the 8800 GTS 512 is not much slower...

The first-ever NAS we took a look at was a dual-bay Thecus N2100. We are returning to those roots today by now taking a look at the single-bay N1200. We were pleased to see that Thecus once again delivered a well-built NAS that's not only sturdy, but packs in numerous useful features as well...

If on the lookout for a good GPU at a great price, it's easier than ever. NVIDIA's 9600 GT packs a punch and retails for well under $200. We are taking Gigabyte's stock-clocked solution for a spin to see how it stacks up against our other models. And yes, it overclocks like a beast. You can...

Logitech surprised us at CES with the launch of their diNovo Mini media keyboard, which is not much larger than a cell phone. But despite its size, it packs in the functionality, and is even supported by the Playstation 3. Are we impressed? Let's just say that once again, Logitech has pulled it...

Hi all, You might have noticed that we have begun posting more and more GPU-related content in the past few months, and that's for a reason... people love them! All of the GPU reviews we've posted have performed well, and it's apparent that consumers love to peruse them to help with their...

I don't think it's much of a secret... we love to overclock. In fact, the sad fact is that most of us overclock first thing, post-install. We don't care about the performance at stock... we want to see how far we can push the thing and hope we don't break something :-D So the question I have...

NewEgg is offering Palit's version of the 9600 GT for $149.99, which includes a mail-in-rebate to bring the total price down to $109.99. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814261002 This... is a tremendous deal. Bear in mind that one of these cards can run Crysis just fine...

From our front-page news: Late March, we posted about a new Sonic game that was en route. Although at the time, nothing was official, and the sources were still sketchy, despite having a detailed trailer available. We have to wonder no more, however, as Sega has finally made the game official...

From our front-page news: Notebooks are great for offering computing on the go, but at the same time, the portability can also be a downside. The more the notebook is out of the house, the greater the chance that it could get stolen, even if you only take your eye off of it for a minute. I've...

We were so impressed with the Central Axis upgrade for the Shared Storage II at CES that we thought we'd check out the NAS itself prior to the official launch of that software. With 1TB of storage, will the SSII warrant a purchase, with it's higher price point? You can read Matt's full...

From our front-page news: While not a sign of PC gaming as a whole, the news that EA is pulling Madden 2009 out of the PC is big news regardless. If I had to guess the reason, I would assume it to be that sport games on the PC tend to suck, and from my experience, the graphics, despite being on...

From our front-page news: I admit I've had to sign some odd NDA's and EULA's in the past in order to acquire either a piece of hardware or software under embargo, but never, not once, have I been asked to sign a EULA for purchasing a product on a public e-tailer. BoingBoing has posted news about...

From our front-page news: The Intel Developer Forum is the place to be to get sneak-peeks of what Intel has up their sleeves, but that's a given. IDF in Shanghai is taking place right now, and Intel has wasted no time in breaking out the Nehalem and impressive specs. The demo chip was...

From our front-page news: It feels like forever that PS3 gamers have been waiting to get their rumble on... because well, it almost has been. The PS3 launched in November 2006, which means that we waited a long SIX<strike>axis</strike>TEEN months to see this thing hit the street! What was the...

Need a new router but not ready to take the 802.11n plunge? We're taking a look at a brand-new ASUS model that boasts tried and true 802.11g and offers it at a great price. It lacks in certain ways, but makes up for it in others, such as with the inclusion of a real print server. You can read...

I admit it... I dislike April Fool's. I find it tedious to read the news and not know what's real... it's so annoying. Because of this so-called hatred, I didn't find too much that was humorous... except for this...

NVIDIA's 9-series might be brand-new, but the 8-series should not be overlooked. Most 8800 GTS 512 cards cost less than the 9800 GTX, and can be easily overclocked to overpower it. In the case of this pre-overclocked ASUS card, the 9800 GTX doesn't have a fighting chance. You can read the full...

Although I'm generally not huge on American cars, the Viper is one exception. It's styling is incredible and screams "beast" and "drive me like there is no tomorrow". Well, one of the four special edition Vipers in So Cal are no longer with us...
