    sound cards

    If you are willing to spend money, the X-Fi may be the way to go. I use the Chaintech AV-710, which is almost a budget card but does music extremely well. Can't say the same for some gaming though.

    Func sUrface1030 Archetype

    Muddy, I wish I had an IceMat here to compare it to :-/ Shadow_1, I believe that because this is dual sided, one is the Archetype surface and the opposite is the sUrface1030. So technically, you get both types with this one mousepad. Yup, I could use my MX518 on both sides just fine. I really...

    Func sUrface1030 Archetype

    Gamers don't want to put up with subpar equipment... they want the best. Seeing that high-end hardware can be extremely expensive, it's good to start with the modest mousepad! Today, we are taking a look at the Func sUrface 1030 mousepad, which looks to offer much more to the gamer than other...

    Crotale reaches 19.953s at 6609MHz with SuperPi with Intel Penium XE955

    There's no way we'll see an AMD hit 6GHz for a good long while. That is, unless they decided to change how they measure MHz, then maybe we'll end up with a 600GHz puter.

    Xbox 360 Controller for Windows

    It wouldn't surprise me to see hacks for this in the future, but I'd rather see MS release a USB dongle themselves... As they should have in the first place.

    Half-Life 2: 64-Bit - Reason to get excited?

    Deadly, I just tested this out and it works as normal. Glad to see it didn't take Valve *too* long to sort things out.

    Crotale reaches 19.953s at 6609MHz with SuperPi with Intel Penium XE955

    Not too long ago Robert "Crotale" Kihlberg laid hands on both the title of Swedish Overclocking Champion and an Intel Pentium XE 955. He managed to reach 4GHz, both in the Championship and with Intel's new beast, which isn't bad at all as the first meant a 203% overclock but with the latter he...

    FX 60 Review

    Hexus is taking the new high-end AMD chip for a test spin. This is the chip that will push the 4800+ from the Dual Core top spot.. or we will see. Picture two FX55's stacked on top of each other, and that's pretty close to what the FX60 is. I didn't yet read the review, but will soon.

    Cable through my PC?

    I was hoping that in this HDTV age, that I could muster more than 640*480. I know some motherboards are HDTV compatable, but I haven't looked into why that is, hehe. I will have to browse Hauppague's website and see what they have. I know Greg has one he's playing around with, so I will have to...

    Cable through my PC?

    As some of you know, I recently jumped into the HDTV world. I quickly found out though, that basic cable looks absolutely horrible. Even though it's digital cable, it's still a regular NTSC signal. My cable company sells a replacement HDTV digital terminal, which would basically make only the...

    Dell XPS Renegade

    I wasn't able to make it to CES this year, but there were a few items that certainly stood out. The main product was the Dell XPS Renegade 600. XPS Renegade The reason this XPS is different than it's sisters, is because that it's the first PC to incorperate use of Quad SLI. Basically, there...

    AMD 64 SD core

    SSE3 instruction set and a better memory controller. I believe the Rev E's also generally run less hot than the previous cores.

    Damn, the 6800GT OC is hawt!

    Lol. If they give me anything back, it will be a slight downgrade or upgrade. I paid $620CAN for that card and used it for three months. What a waste of money :-/

    Damn, the 6800GT OC is hawt!

    Well it's a review sample, so a regular RMA would not likely apply. I will just have to talk to them on Monday. Just sent off an e-mail to BFG and hope to receive a reply in the next two days. Usually they are pretty quick so I expect one soon enough. I am just hoping they will not try to...
