"Do you think using Arctic Freeze 7 Pro cooler will help me reaching @3.8 Ghz? " Not a chance.

DmercIntel will give us ray tracing very easily. Do a search for Quake 3 raytraced and you will be surprised on which machine it is running. An Intel. I'm sorry, over 1 FPS ray-tracing performance was assumed. I can ray-trace a scene by hand in the same amount of time. I'm not interested in...

Finally some quantitative analysis from Tom's, with reasonable methodology and an interesting subject. Well done, you have educated me! Yet, I see that Far Cry 2 was the only title tested and I have no way of knowing if any of these conclusions carry over to any other title. But now I have the...

I'm glad nVidia is still around as who else is in the position to give us ray tracing as the next big thing - Intel? AMD? Not a chance.

How about that, put the CPU on the GPU! I'm all for it...bring it!

What an unexpected twist to your question. It is good that you supplied that extra information as it changes the answer from "Yes, in a manner of speaking." to "It depends on how your navigation systems embedded controller is engineered". On a PC you can trick an OS into thinking a HDD or...

I meant to say SATA instead of USB and I can't edit my post..sorry!

I'm sure the Gigabyte marketing department will thank me when I say... "that's a hell of a board." No seriously, it looks engineered well enough to run in a high temperature, high load PC environment, which is what the board is intended to do with 3 video card slots, correct? Proper power...

Nearly all LCDs panels are equally terrible for gaming. Or equally wonderful for gaming, depending on where you are coming from. I personally think LCD panels, (TFTs especially) are an eye sore for anything other than vivid, well-lit static images. You aren't going to find any 'gaming' 8-bit...

It's called journalism author, go find out the story.

I'm glad I got the G92 ages ago (8800GTS/512M) it is a hell of a card that can chew through anything except high-res Crysis. Nvidia must be glad too, since they keep trying to sell it back to me, over and over and over again!

I think your mobo is a POS. Dual-Channel RAM, (while not a barnburner in raw performance increase especially with your CPU), can and does have significant impact in certain instances with 64-bit AMD CPUs due to the on-die memory controller and lower by design latency. (Windows boots quicker...

You are damn right it is a hassle to re-install your software. It's the digital equivalent of packing up and tackling the Oregon Trail. Windows 7 is shaping up to be a huge giant warm blanket of fail. Vista redux, yuck. What's new in it again? Why am I supposed to want/need it? I thought so.

No book ever had the type disappear from the page on me while I was reading it. No book ever stuck itself closed. No book ever came with a coin slot to keep on reading it. I understand e-paper, might even be kinda useful in unconventional settings, but this Kindle e-book concept creeps me...
