Do you have a real Skulltrail board, like seen in the original article I wrote? If so, your BIOS will have a screen like this: http://techgage.com/viewimg/?img=/reviews/intel/skulltrail/d5400xs_bios_05.jpg&desc=Intel%20D5400XS%20BIOS There, you would need to increase the CPU0 and CPU1...

Taken from the article: I should mention also that I had wanted to include results from both Crysis and Half-Life 2: Episode Two, but due to what I believe were driver issues, I was unable. AMD is working to figure out the reason I had such issues, and I will follow-up with results from those...

Wow, I don't envy the hassle you are dealing with. Those are some intense issues man, and really not needed. I guess what you could do, if you really felt like wasting time, would be to install 32-bit Vista on a separate partition, use it for an hour or two and see if the halting continues. I...

Greg wraps up his coverage of the ASUS RoG Con that occurred over the weekend: The ASUS RoG Con is done and over with, so we take a look back at what made the weekend so great. Depending on who you ask, the LAN was a great success, with nobody leaving without some sort of swag in their hand...

The non-gaming GPU games are heating up, and Intel is hot on NVIDIA's tail, but can you predict who will reign surpreme in two-years time? Both Intel and NVIDIA have lots to say about their respective GPU architectures, as well as the competition's. Partly because of this, there are numerous...

No sadly, for some reason that skipped my mind. I had so many issues over the weekend with the card and drivers, that I ended up having to leave out a few things I wanted. The temps aren't a huge deal though, and should be in line with the last HD 3870 X2 card. They are designed to handle 105C...

AMD triumphantly returns with a GPU so powerful, it might just send NVIDIA's engineers scrambling back to the drawing board. AMD has gone too long without a real high-end graphics card to compete with the competition, but they're done with the pity, and prove it with the HD 4870 X2, which...

From our front-page news: Unless I'm blind, today might just be a slow news day. But that downside turned into an upside, as I came up with the most common-sense idea ever... linking to our old content! So from now on, if news is coming in slower than tar dripping from an Alaskan rooftop, we'll...

From our front-page news: In a somewhat surprising move, Richard Brown, VIA's VP of Corporate Marketing in Taiwan, told Custom PC that the company would be leaving the motherboard chipset business in order to focus on more important products, such as their Nano processor (which, as we've seen...

From our front-page news: Regardless of how old you are, it's likely that you enjoy sitting back and reading through an old magazine, or a really old magazine, just for fun. I have many old EGM's, GamePro's, Nintendo Power's and others, and it's great fun looking through just to see how far...

From our front-page news: Although it's been said that PC gaming is on the downslope, piracy of PC games has been steadily increasing ever since it's existed. It's not too often (if it's ever happened before) that a game developer has come straight out and asked, 'Why?'. Why exactly do people...

From our front-page news:Back in May, I made a news post about the certain demise of the QX9650 Extreme processor - the very first 45nm-based offering out of Intel - which we first took a look at last October. Well, the time has finally come, as multiple e-tailers have its replacement in stock...

Both points are true, but I like the slick design to be honest. Makes me feel all tingly inside, somewhat. At first I thought it was a ridiculous name, but I thought the same thing about the Wii when it first came out. Oh wait, I still think that name is truly ridiculous...

From our front-page news:On Friday, I made a post about some Windows Vista themes that where not only great-looking, but completely free as well. Definitely check out that post if you haven't already, if you are interested in spicing up your home PC a little bit. Over the weekend, I set up a...

From our front-page news:The news was first leaked this weekend, but will today be confirmed by Intel: the first Nehalem products launched will carry the 'i7' identifier, officially becoming the 'Intel Core i7' processor. As is the norm, each individual model will carry a separate model code...

There's an exciting event happening in Dallas that comes in the form of a LAN party. Not any usual LAN though, as it's sponsored by some of the biggest companies in the business, including the event leader, ASUS. While the Dallas heat sure isn't fun to deal with, the event more than makes up for...

I can understand why people would like wobbly windows and the like, but that to me got old real fast. I'm on a PC generally for productivity, and all that stuff did was slow me down. At least with a good-looking theme, it's not going to get in your way. Compiz does have some benefits, but give...

I hate these problems, because it could really be anything. The first thing I'd blame would be the memory, so I'd scan that just to make sure it's a-ok. Not that memory should just go bad, but it does happen from time to time, and it could be just a small portion of one of the RAM sticks that's...

From our front-page news: In an attempt to help fill out their workstation line-up a little better, AMD has just launched a brand-new series, called FirePro. Both the V3700 and V5700 cards are designed to give consumers a better choice, because as it was before, there was an $800 gap between the...

From our front-page news: Vista might look mounds better than XP, but let's face it, even the best interfaces can look boring after a while... it's just something that happens, regardless of what it is. But did you know that Windows Blinds isn't the only solution for skinning your Vista? The...
