Wow, this is so stupid. First, he is a programmer and as programmer, we are very lazy and prefer quick and dirty solutions, like emulating everything. YES, havok is very nice because you can compute all physics with your CPU but at a very big cost... no matter how well optimized and how many...

SolidSnakeHeadOh! man, one good reason for this "always on" is like to alway cheack that you have a valid key for your copy. Good bye to the guys who download a copy from bit torrent site and copy the crack over the original exe program. I think I understand EA, they selling game to make money...

Was building a PC with old crap and screws taken from electric applicances and when I turned it on the HDD shorted at one of these screws. It was awful. On another old build, Pentium I, mobo gone in smoke... some part melted. On another old build, computer started to smell burnt circuits...

How the hell apple can have such an EULA... it's like if MS said "you cannot install windows on non-ibm hardware" or "you can only use IE as web browser on windows" (ipod = itune)... I think the DOJ should check this, instead of wasting time harassing ms.

You don't need to have more than 2 cores for games, as very few games are multithreaded so it would be useless... It's better to have more CPU speed. I think a intel system with based on a E8500 would be a far better choice for this price.

I would prefer the AMD build, because for gaming you need 2 things: good video card and raw CPU speed. Games are not very multithreaded and are not very CPU-bound, so 4 cores or enhanced CPU technology will not provide you as much FPS as raw MHZs. And of course the 4GB ddr2 800 is nice... But I...

Lol, nice patent... so I could buy a computer with a 4 ghz max CPU but because I decided to pay less by choosing the basic version it will only be clocked to 1.8 ghz until I buy a key which I enter in my BIOS and that will unlock it to its full potential? Sounds like M$ wants more money from...

Try to update your drivers to to lastest version. Check the card's heatsink and cooling to see if everything is OK. Perhaps you have to repair your directX.

kutarkFor me the biggest advantage of steam, and one that honestly makes me wish i could purchase ALL of my games on it, is that i dont have to lug around my cds/dvds everywhere. Although im glad they're not pulling the securom garbage, still having to put a DVD in EVERY time i want to play the...

Very good job Psystar... it's Apple who is violating anti-trust laws by forcing user to buy mac hardware which is more expensive to run OSX when it could run flawlessly on any x86 machine if there drivers avalaible and apple locks removed.

Very good thing..., it should be a free option. AND WHY THE HELL THE TITLE BAR IN IE IS "Internet Explorer Provided by Dell" WITH DELL LAPTOPS! WTF??? They are just crazy, they have nothing to do with ie! Why they want to put their garbage everywhere? Because yahoo, symantec and others pay them...

Solaris, Linux and any unix based system is safe, as you would need to be root to access such low level functions and you are never suppose to be logged on root. On mac? Who would target a OS with so few users... and as OSX has some unix bases, I think its protected too due to its architecture...

TindytimCertainly not without dropping us into a huge depression. Not only is Chine an economic superpower, it has a large trade relationship with the United States (the superpower of the world) which would just drop the rest of the world further. The world would be better without China, no more...

Lol, and what? China is a democraty? There is no violence done to monks by chinesse army? I think it's time to cut those damn communists from internet or at least to filter them. They only want to prepare a mass disruption of western communications for an invasion.

Anybody remind the CIH virus aka Chernobyl? It was quite evil when it screwed motherboards. There is suppose to have a bios flash write protection on most pc models, I think it would be a good idea to enable it.
