    Zotac Offers Mini-ITX Solution With Wi-Fi and Nvidia Graphics

    Oh, just noticed that the Zotac comes with a DVI-HDMI adapter according to their site. The intel board doesnt support audio over HDMI apparently, so there is no difference anyways.

    Zotac Offers Mini-ITX Solution With Wi-Fi and Nvidia Graphics

    DaneelWhat about the Intel DG45ID? It has built in HDMI as well as an esata port and does away with all the legacy connectors. But its using crap Intel 4500 integrated graphics. Legacy connectors (PS/2 & ATA) being there or not is irrelevant. eSATA would have been nice on this thing though, so...

    Overvolted RAM May Kill Your Core i7 CPU

    10taclePersonally, I find this information about as useful as a milk bucket under a bull currently. As mentioned in the article, John Q. Public hasn't even seen the first full review yet, let alone being able to purchase it. With that said, one wonders, will the tri-channel configuration...

    Overvolted RAM May Kill Your Core i7 CPU

    "Let us not forgot that manufacturers have always recommended against over voltage and clocking in some form or another – but it does not mean you cannot do it. We are pretty certain that this shouldn’t cause a big issue in the long run. The only real difference is that novices will now be more...

    Apple Sues Canadian School for Similar Logo

    chris312Two things are stupid. This lawsuit and the editorialism this story reeks of. "Symbolizing education in Canada is apparently a no-no because iPods are more important than learning." Why make a strawman out of an already absurd lawsuit? Just present the facts, please. Why not? You just...

    Vista Following the Footsteps of Windows ME

    bourgeoisdudeOn the article: Quite frankly this is a horribly opinionated article that really tells us nothing new. Factually it presents us with NOTHING at all, and it doesn't even mention that the call volume at Dell percentage wise rose higher during the 2000 to XP transition than the XP to...

    Vista Following the Footsteps of Windows ME

    fake1234Tied of reading this kind of stupid artical over and over again. The quote of Telus is stupid too. People in the industry that knows Telus knows it cannot really support anyone. How many times it needed to call the actual vendor in just to resolve some basic installtion problem? Yer...

    StrunfFunny I'm a happy player with 100ms of ping and guess what I still beat the crap of many with much lower pings, the fact is that ping means virtually nothing for anyone that is under 100ms. :| The classic macho-man gamer talk. "Yeah, ping don't matter, it's skill! Anything below 100 is...

    geok1ngA-Does Killer NIC makes all of the improvements it advertises: probable yes-so does an Ageia physics card, a much worse product. Ageia works on 5 games and offers better gaming experience in 2, the Killer at least improves FPS by almost 2 in a score of games...so if you play these games...
