    abit to Close its Doors on December 31

    I couldn't agree more. It's too bad for those people who opted for their boards and are still having issues... a fix is not going to come along after the company ceases, at least not likely.

    Can Apple Customers Still Feel Special?

    Kougar, that's interesting analysis. I actually kind of find it rather sad, in a way. Apple was always known as a computer company, and lately they've been known as a cell phone manufacturer, heh. I'm interested to see if that will ever change, though. I think Apple's hope was that with the...

    Can Apple Customers Still Feel Special?

    Hah, Mac's aren't literally taking over the world, but their growth is huge. It's just too bad that Linux doesn't support the vast amount of applications out there (like Photoshop)... else I could see it being stiff competition.

    Nintendo Stomps the Competition with November Sales

    I don't think it can be denied that the Wii is far less powerful than the other two consoles. Nintendo did this on purpose. They wanted to offer cool game mechanics while making the console affordable. That's my theory on why the graphics are nowhere near the other consoles, and for the most...

    Antec P182 Performance Mid-Tower

    I will have to change that question... it's "orange and blue", or some variant of. There are like eight variations that will work, but I didn't think people might think yellow. Poor choice of a question on my part. I use this case on my main PC, and don't have a problem with that. To be honest...

    Intel Core i7 - Choosing the Best Memory Kit

    Hi MSongs: If money isn't a huge concern, I'd recommend going with the 6GB, simply because it offers a little more freedom than 3GB, even if you might not notice a difference in most scenarios. Vista as a whole takes up a fair amount of RAM, and so would Photoshop, so with that scenario, you...

    RAM for Asus Maximus Formula?

    Did you happen to see if there was a newer version of their manual on their support site? It would have updated information like that. Even still though, I cannot conceivably see why they wouldn't work, and I'm quite confident they will. The chipset supports it, and so I don't see why it would...

    RAM for Asus Maximus Formula?

    That doesn't make too much sense to me, since the board supports 8GB of RAM. No single-sided 2GB sticks likely exist, because it's not sensible. That means each chip has 2x density, and as a result, would be more expensive, and probably also slightly less-efficient. You might want to check the...

    Extreme Overclockers are a Unique Breed

    From our front-page news: Given that you're reading our website, chances are good that you've thought at some point about overclocking, or even gave it a try yourself. Or it could be, like many of the posters in our forums, your computer is never not overclocked, even if it's by a little bit...

    How Porn has Changed the Internet

    From our front-page news: Despite the fact that pornographic material on and off the web is more popular than ever, it's still one of those things that not too many people talk about. Some people may admit that they purchase such material, while others do their best to hide it in their own...

    HUE HD Webcam

    Hah, Woot.com's sale resulted in a lot of e-mails, but I don't know what to tell most people, since this product seemed to have been a one-off for the company. They came and went very, very fast... it's almost strange. As for your question with regards to two webcams at once, I wasn't even...

    Building an Affordable "Skulltrail" System

    I meant 1.45v for the CPU... it shouldn't go much higher than that for the sake of temps. The FSB could go up to 1.65v without much issue, but the MCH shouldn't have to be touched at all... it has nothing to do with the processor. As for the fan speeds, I'm really not sure, sadly. I looked...

    Oh, how far $80 can stretch...

    Yup, it hurts, but if you don't need it (and a lot of people don't), then it's not such a big deal. For the price, the lack of the inclusion is understandable... I'm just glad that's the extent of the downsides.

    Intel Contest: Tell Us YOUR Processor Story and Win!

    Haha, wow. Good job on coming even that close though... that's a lot of math at play.

    abit to Close its Doors on December 31

    I was also hesitant to believe it as well, but there are so many things that are now falling into place. Even back in late October, I never received a response to two e-mails I sent, so it didn't give me much hope. It's too bad... the more competition, the better. I don't have the benefit of...

    Can Apple Customers Still Feel Special?

    From our front-page news: That question might sound a bit odd at first, but it's a good one. When things, whether they be products or habits, tend to grow in popularity, they lose their initial lustre. If you're part of a rather small group of like-minded people, you might have reason to feel...

    Apple Announces its Last Year at Macworld

    I'm not sure if you realize it, but Apple doesn't own or run Macworld... IDG does. Apple just pays to be there, like any other sponsor.

    Want Scientology Training? Get a Job at Diskeeper!

    I've been on the fence about what to do here. While I think the CEO of Diskeeper needs to get a clue about how employees need to be treated, we've been using their defragger for years and it's become ingrained into our testing methodology, so it'd be a bit of work to remove it. When I feel the...

    Want Scientology Training? Get a Job at Diskeeper!

    From our front-page news: A sad reality is that discrimination in the job market exists. You may not be hired for a position due to your ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, religious beliefs or because you wear purple socks with blue pants. It's wrong, but it happens, even if it's not so...
