Nice finds! Did you happen to stumble upon prospective prices as well?

Need a new mid-range GPU for under $200? NVIDIA's 9800 GTX+ is a good model to keep in mind, and ASUS' Dark Knight card in particular proves to be one well-worth considering. The card offers great gaming performance for the cash, even handling certain games at 2560x1600 with ease, has a...

I thought I did, but I couldn't find it in the pile of photos I had for the review. The board is all uninstalled now, sadly. Woops, fixed! Thanks for pointing that out.

From our front-page news: Intel unveiled an interesting product last week that I somehow overlooked completely, but it's definitely cool enough to mention now. Solid-State Disks are nothing new and we've talked about them a hundred times in the past, but the company's X-25E Extreme SSD becomes...

From our front-page news: With Core i7 right around the corner (~one month for launch), we'd expect that we would be seeing lot of specialized memory kits, CPU coolers and motherboards being announced, but that's not the case at all. It actually seems a little sketchy right now. Not a single...

From our front-page news: Error screens are a common part of computing, as we've discussed before, but there is one type of "error" that no one ever hopes to get. One so severe, you actually manage to lose your breath at the first sight. I'm of course talking about an error related to data loss...

Intel's P45 chipset proves to be one of the best mainstream offerings ever created, and Gigabyte put it to good use on their EP45-EXTREME. The board offers sweet cooling ability (which the help of a lot of copper), amazing overclocking potential (500MHz stable with a Quad!) and fantastic power...

Hi Mike: I chose the Zalman cooler for that article because it's the same model that Intel sent with Skulltrail for our review, so I assumed they liked it for a reason. The Thermalright cooler is better though, I'll admit, and we'll be using the TRUE Black version going forward for both our...

Heh, I might have set myself up, since I ended up needing to use the application on Fri. I had an HDD issue on Thurs night, so I burned a recovery utility to a CD using that app and had no issues at all. It was fast and the disk worked well (I had to use it all day, heh, not one quirk). I was...

I agree... some of the simplest things change from version to version, and it's needless. As I mentioned above, I used to be able to do a few things in PS7 that were simple, but when CS came out, I was lost. I still haven't figured out how to accomplish the same thing (I admit I didn't look that...

If it was pearl-white or something like that, I'd say that, but I dunno. Their notebooks are similar to that color, so I'm not sure what's up. I don't think that card works with Apple, so it'd be an odd move. It still looks a lot better than their other ultra-high-end workstation cards.

I meant it was painful to just see such a massive price drop. I read it wrong... I thought you said you purchased it when it was originally that price. If not then it's good to see a price drop. It's too bad we can't all just wait ten years and then pick up what we need. This industry is nuts...

We need to get some more in, that's for sure. We've (I've) been a little slow on the ball. We have an ASUS P6T here along with Intel's DX58SO. A Gigabyte board is en route also (not sure which one), but it's been slow. We should definitely be able to cover all three of those boards for our...

From our front-page news: We found out weeks ago that a few select applications from Adobe's new Creative Suite 4 would take advantage of the GPU, and from the looks of things, it's NVIDIA who's out to push the message to the public. Although it appears that the new applications will take...

From our front-page news: The third revision PSP, coined "PSP Brite" by many, is now available all across North America. Sony doesn't seem too interested in selling the console apart from everything else though, as the only way to currently purchase it is by picking up a $199.99 bundle, but I...

I'll be the first to admit that I'll likely never be a PC modder, but I still love reading up on how things are done. It intrigues me and somewhat inspires me to b more creative in other areas. I do know that there are a lot of modders to frequent the site though, so surely someone has some...

I tend to disagree as well... when I look for a CPU cooler, I have no care in knowing when it was released. I know the Ultra 120 from Thermalright has been out for a while, but it still kicks serious ass.

I'm just wondering if the problem was that it was just too much cash to sink into the console. For the most part, both HD DVD and Blu-ray were on par cost-wise, and when the PS3 launched, it was already very expensive ($649 if I recall), so I am confident that an Xbox 360 HD DVD would have had...

Photoshop 3.5? Damn, that is OLD SCHOOL. The first version I used was PS 6, although it wasn't mine so I didn't use it too often. The first version I used on a regular basis was PS 7, which is what got me addicted to the software. That version could do things easily that I can't even figure out...

Thanks for the update man... and it's too bad that that application didn't live up to expectations. If I used Windows on a regular basis, I'd give it an install and see if my experience matches... but alas, the only two Windows machines hooked up now are for benchmarking :-/ It's too bad...
