Just got my Cloud 2's today and after some minor testing...I love them. I am coming from a $40 plantronics gamescom open ear set which are obviously not comparable and I don't claim to be any sort of audiophile, but I am very happy with my short time with the Cloud 2's. Most of my testing was on...

I'm not even willing to pay $60 for "AAA" games for any system now! What makes them think people will pay $70+ for VR games? I always wait as long as possible before buying games I want and that's usually when they go down at least half the price. If there is a must have new release with some...

Love the way these look and always wanted to get the pro 2, but it wasn't widely available at the time. Hope the pro 3 is more widely distributed and I will definitely get one.

Everyone's eyes drift to the biggest numbers, but what really matters is the price for performance and clearly the the Sandisk ultra plus 256gb and Samsung 840pro 128gb win out there. I'm glad I have a sandisk and unless you need the absolute best for the highest price, I don't see why you...

As long as you have a new unused product key you won't need the discs. Go to microsofts website and download 2 things: 1)the iso file for whichever windows you need and 2)the usb downloader tool onto a thumb drive of at least 4GB. Stick in the thumb drive and boot from it through the UEFI...

Definitely get a better psu. You can find a seasonic or corsair or something which would be better for probably $10 or more cheaper. You can find cheaper memory as well like kingston hyper x. With those extra dollars get a gtx 760 instead of the 660 and youll be set!

Go with the corsair 500R. It has a gigantic side fan for tons of air flow and is top of the line in its range.

My understanding is that WCing is not worth the time/money unless you plan on doing some extreme stuff with your build. It seems to be reserved for those who: A)have no budget limits, B) love the look of WC components, C) plan to max out most of their components. Today, components like GPU's are...

I can only comment on the hero because that is what I have and I am 100% happy with it. Asus includes a plethora of software tailored specifically to their ROG mobos and all of it is really well optimized for what it is intended for. If you plan to overclock at all I can't see how it gets any...

I guess this will go down as an unsolved mystery. I just hope it doesn't happen with BF4.

Be careful reading the stuff for FRY's. Most of the items that look like a great deal are often REFURBISHED! I have noticed fry's does sell refurbished items often. I have seen ps3's advertised many times as $199, but they were refurbished and the actual new price was $299. Same goes for GPU's...

If $1200 is your budget I think you should: buy a ps4, buy a high end tablet, and spend the rest on ps4 games. That way you'll be the envy of all your friends because you'll have 2 high end items instead of just one nice PC. I wouldn't dump it all into the PC unless you're serious about PC...

I'm having an issue where there is sometimes no sound whatsoever when playing BF3 PC. I have done all of the troubleshooting I can think of and still cannot figure it out. It doesn't always occur and I would say it happens in more than half the games/servers that I join...meaning maybe 1 or 2...

You won't find a legit copy for any crazy low prices everywhere sells it for about $90. Even online the prices for all versions of windows are almost exactly the same as they will be in a physical retail store. Just buy from wherever you get bonus offers from like if you're a best buy reward...
