    Fallout 3 GOTY Not displaying menu options (PC Version)

    BUMP I have tried forcing the game to run at my bezel-adjusted resolution of 6020x1080. The buttons are back, but now the mouse moves way too fast in the X direction. Any ideas on how to tweak this?

    Extend Battery capacity with 13,000 mAh battery pack

    I recently ordered a 13,000 mAh battery pack as a backup power source for my phone on long trips, power outages, and camping trips. I was wondering if there was a way I could use it to extend the battery capacity of my Lenovo y500 (which has rather poor battery life). More than likely it would...

    single 980/ 970 SLI vs 670 SLI

    I ended up going with a 970, I just couldn't justify the extra $200 for a 10-15% increase in performance.
