    News RTX 4080 Too Expensive? Gamers Say Otherwise, as Cards Sell Out Within an Hour

    3000? 4000? Who cares. If I have to wait another decade for prices to come out of fantasy land, I'll do it. I'm just fine with my 1070 TI and a Steam library so large, I'll probably die before I finish them all.

    News Steep RTX 30-Series Discounts Suggest Impending 40-Series Launch

    I'm still sporting a 1070 TI, the whole scalper non-sense put my upgrade on the back burner. One of these days I'm going to get that new card but I'm not going to pay out the nose for it. Plenty of other games in my Steam library to play that don't need cutting edge graphics cards.

    News John Carmack Proposes a Way to Fight GPU & Console Shortages

    I gave up on this garbage. I will be just fine with my 1070 TI for a while to come along with the massive backlog of Steam games to play and re-play. Screw miners, scalpers, and the card makers for enabling both of the former.

    U.S. Government Wants V2V Technology In All New Cars To Reduce Crashes

    I can't wait to read about the people that create devices to trick your car into thinking it needs to evade something that is not there and instead, sends your car into a brick wall or something. Should be lots of fun.

    Diablo 3 Expansion Reaper of Souls Sells 2.7 Million

    To the guy questioning WOW bannings. It is certainly possible to get banned even though you didnt do anything wrong. They banned one of my accounts after I spent 12 hours one Saturday farming ore nodes. Apparently the algorithm they use to spot botters decided that I was gathering too much...

    Diablo 3 Expansion Reaper of Souls Sells 2.7 Million

    I think some people just like to complain for the sake of complaining. The drop rate for legendary items now is much better. Not all of the drops are great but there are great legendary items that can drop and i have gotten several already. I've had 3 legendary items drop within 5 mins and...

    Triple TV setup or Triple Monitor setup

    I use 3 of the 46" Sceptre TVs for my 3 screen gaming. Works just fine as long as you don't sit close enough to lick a screen. My chair is an electric recliner. Since your probably dealing with a thick bezel, I would suggest staggering your TVs. i push the side TVs just far enough behind the...

    Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H dead? or maybe not...

    If the power supply was dead, wouldn't the system recieve no power at all? The psu turns on and the all the case fans turn on as well as the CPU fan and the graphics card built in fan. All 6 of my hard drives power up. I've already tried a PSU from a friend's system and that didn't make any...
