It's in the City of Industry, which is around LA county. Here are some initial photos:

Oh, I'm not participating. I suck at overclocking, and a fact to support this is that the board they're using for the competition is the same one I reviewed a few weeks ago that I managed to only get a 190MHz BCLK out of ;-) I agree though... Gigabyte is really going the extra mile with this...

Hi all: I'm in City of Industry for the final "Semi-Finals" of Gigabyte's global overclocking competition, GO OC 09. At the first GO OC, which occurred last fall, the company held only one event, but in 2009, they decided to take things global. As a result, there were semi-finals held all over...

I have no doubts that the mouse is to blame for a lot of unsmooth cursor movement. I've been using a Func Archtype pad for about three years, and once in a while the tracking on my G5 mouse will go awry and I'll have to slam it to get it to work right again. Of course, the cord (covered with a...

Merlin: What in the? ~11Mbit/s upload? That's freaking insane! I'd kill for that. I upload all the time. Kougar: The fact that they aren't willing to give up is the sad thing. I still can't believe there is such things as caps. When I first got my DSL in 1999 or whenever it was, no one ever...

Well, it doesn't surprise me too much that Nikon is a little bit behind the curve lately. I'm not sure what it is, but I haven't really been drawn to any of their latest releases. The last one might be the D300, but that's been out for quite a while now (like 2 years?). Either way, I'm still a...

I'm not positive here, but I was quite certain that 75 was the level cap from the get-go. The only reason I believe this is due to the fact that I remember comparing the game to FFXI at the time of release, since both shared an identical cap (FFXI, for some reason, has never had its level cap...

From our front-page news: If you purchase a pre-built machine today, or build your own, you can remain confident that it's going to run any of the mainstream operating systems available today. But there's also likely many of you who have old machines hanging around that you can't stand to get...

Just to make sure I have it right in my head. You have two ODDs, right? One just happens to be IDE, and the other S-ATA? Either way, freezing like that isn't natural, so something's amiss. Does it freeze inside of Windows, or during the boot process? If you uninstall that S-ATA drive and things...

Gateway launched three new notebook series just a few weeks ago, with the MD arguably being the most interesting. As a value-focused multi-media series, the models feature a large screen and modest resolution, fast processors and ample storage. This along with superb design, and with multiple...

From our front-page news: Programming isn't easy, and when it comes to designing your code to be as efficient as possible, it's even harder. Some coders don't care as much about their code as others though, and that can result in applications or games ending up with a larger file size. That...

From our front-page news: In the past, some people have asked me if I was an audiophile, simply because I have a good set of cans, a good audio card, and also happen to stick to lossless formats for my collection. But, I'll be the first to admit that I'm the furthest thing from being an...

From our front-page news: Just a few weeks ago, I posted a link to an online magazine devoted to both overclocking and of course, overclockers. In that post, I mentioned that the hobby of overclocking isn't slowing down, and in fact, it seems to be growing at a very rapid pace. Proof of this is...

From our front-page news: It's been discussed numerous times in the past that netbooks have been one of the biggest innovations in mobile computing in the last while, and that doesn't look to change right away. Given their price points (and this economy), they're an extremely attractive option...

From our front-page news: I'd be hard-pressed to believe that not every single person who visits our site has also visited YouTube at least once in the past month. In fact, I'd believe that the vast majority have visited in the past week. YouTube has become one with the Internet, and even if you...

From our front-page news: I'm sure I'm not alone in thinking that sometimes, it's a bit easy to take things for granted, when in reality, things are amazing. Take flying, for example. It's an incredible feat to raise someone off the ground and fly them from one location to the next, but...

Having a home server can bring obvious benefits, but what if it could do more than just sit there? If you're a music buff, then you may be interested in an audio CD ripping solution from Illustrate, called RipNAS. Pop in a disc, and minutes later it will be available for streaming. It couldn't...

Merlin: I have the same mindset for the most part. Since I like to just hop on randomly to a game, I don't like having to either pair up with people I know or have to sit around for an hour waiting for a party to form. Although it's an MMO, I still enjoy being able to solo and not stress over...

Other SSDs require a data wipe? That's odd. This isn't the first FW update I've had to do on an X25-M, and none of those times required me to wipe the data. That would be a huge pain... wow. As for that SMART information, that's interesting. I'll take a look at that later with the drives here...
