    I'm getting two BFG 7900GTX 512MB Nvidia cards on Friday

    The copperhead mouse by Razr isn't very good. Get the logitech G5 laser instead. The copperhead has hard-to-reach side buttons.

    Yeah the beef I have with ZA is how when you run it for the first time, configuring each program can be frustrating.

    Wake up call: An FPS worth producing...

    Meh I'm kinda like the same way about my games. There isn't a single FPS game that doesn't have some kind of realism error. I've never played SOF2, but I want to, yet its not in stores anymore I think. The beef I have with FPS developers is 1) The general lack of attention to detail. Simple...

    Help with LAN

    You're gonna have to goto Control Panel -> Network Connections on your 3rd computer. Right-click -> Properties on the LAN connection, and select TCP/IP and goto Properties. If "Automatically obtain an IP Address" isn't selected, that may be the problem. There are other problems that can cause...

    AMD Turion and Athlon CPU's in laptops

    Nonono not gaming. I want a laptop that when I use it for college (like word processing and programming) the battery will last long enough to I can make it through a day's worth of college classes. When I DO game though, it'll be most likely connected to the AC power. Does anyone know if...

    AMD Turion and Athlon CPU's in laptops

    Do you guys know any good laptops that can be used for gaming and can give me at least 3 hrs of battery life? Would replacing the default battery with something like a 12-cell give me a great boost in life?

    Whats the best gaming laptop I can get for less than $1200?

    We don't know whether he still wants good battery life or not. Since he states that he wants a laptop, perhaps he wants something that also has decent life in it (maybe at least 3 hrs). I dunno what the models have, but if they don't have some kind of technology similar to AMD's PowerNow, then...

    AMD Turion and Athlon CPU's in laptops

    Would you rather get the MT or the ML if you were a college student and needed it for both gaming (performance) and studying (battery)?

    Spyware Doctor Worth $10 More Then CounterSpy?

    The best thing to do is provide preventive maintenance. Thats why I use spywareblaster and now I'm totally spyware free and have been for 2 years. PC Magazine rated Spyware Doctor over Spy Sweeper, but their tests were pretty biased and the spyware sample was pretty low in count. Same with PC...

    Looking to Buy Off the Shelf Desktop Sys

    Unless you want to be hassled by dealing with proprietary design, I would go with PowerSpec. Not many people have heard of it because only Micro Center sells it. And not many people have heard of Micro Center because there are only 19 locations in 14 states across the U.S. PowerSpec has gotten...

    wondering about Cyberpower maybe going under?

    I doubt that its going out of business. However PC World's consumer ratings suggested that Cyberpower's desktop PC's aren't that reliable. However their laptops still kick ass.
