    Can't fix high latency problems on Windows 10.

    Have you figured this out? I am in the exact same boat as you. Constantly at the 1000ms range. Right now I am typing this without both the GPU and sound card drivers installed, and still it's all yellow bars just like before I uninstalled these drivers. I feel rather annoyed given that I...

    EVGA quality for graphic cards?

    I've always been lucky with my previous system component purchases, so I've gotten used to getting the same brands by default, but have never owned anything made my EVGA. My question is very specific about the quality of the parts which are sourced by EVGA for their video cards. Do they...

    I Gave My Family A Taste Of VR For Christmas

    I'm with you on this one, but I'm torn as hell. 3D TV was a fad, a "feature", most sensible people knew that it was not redefining entertainment in the long run, nor would it stick effectively. VR tech I think is different. I don't doubt that it's going to be clunky and mediocre (in...

    Gigabyte Reveals GeForce GTX 970 Twin Turbo 4 GB

    The reason I know you don't own a GTX 970 is because if you did own one you wouldn't be writing such an uneducated, emotional comment as the one you managed to compose. This card is 4GB, not 3.5GB... Everybody who knows anything about the topic already understands what's going on, but your...

    Roccat Shows Off Customizable Nyth Mouse, Ryos Phobo Keyboard At CES

    Stay away from the Kave XTD 5.1 Digital! The only thing going for it is the fact that the discreet channel experience is solid, but the quality of the sounds is so thin, so shamelessly bad that I simply cannot believe this product was released. It is THE lowest quality pair of cans I've ever...

    In Pictures: 40 Dirty PC Environments

    Some of these pictures are downright disturbing, I would even say inappropriate to feature here for our amusement as they are very clearly snapshots of people's mental illnesses.

    Which GTX 970?

    I've been going nuts over the 970 release, read all the popular site 970 reviews, and the one clear consensus seems to be that getting the Gigabyte incarnation is a no-brainer. It is long, so that alone might disqualify it as an option, but the OC potential is massive, and the cooling is...

    Bethesda Reveals Minimum System Specs For The Evil Within

    Sorry but this is the most off the wall, insane system requirements I've seen in some time, perhaps ever. The game seems to look good, but not THAT good - I mean I get it if it needs a strong GPU and a good CPU, but in i7?! 4GB of vram?! That precludes a lot of solid, well built systems...

    Quick advice needed on CPU Upgrade!

    Well, so there's no clear consensus on this - I suppose my current i5 OC'd to 4.4 will handle the GTX970 quite nicely, so no real need or overwhelming benefit to dropping the $180 on the i7. Yes, I know the i7 is better, but not for gaming, and I suppose the synthetic benefits of the 3770 over...

    Quick advice needed on CPU Upgrade!

    I have the chance to buy an i7 3770K for relatively cheap (well within an emergency fund I have for unexpected upgrade opportunities) but I'm not sure if it's worth it. Currently have an i5 3570K, and will soon be getting my hands on an GTX970 - besides this new GPU, I don't plan on upgrading...

    The International ARM Race: Rise Of The Chinese SoC

    Please don't bother pulling the Party's BS here, nobody will buy it - keep your Chinese lies in China, we know the facts, and the fact is that Taiwan is a constitutional republic - only communist mainland China spins it otherwise, and brainwashed communists who to this day can't believe it that...

    Intel cooling from 1155 to 1150

    Sorry for asking a question that I know I could track down rather quickly, but I am looking at anyone who has any experience using a stock Intel cooler from their 1155 CPU (i5 or i7) with a new Pentium G3258 (1150)? If it's good, I'd rather use the cooler that's kicking around from my i5...

    Thief Patch Enables TrueAudio And Mantle: First Benchmarks

    How is that a gimmick? And how is it a waste for developers? Heck, it's something new that might create a handful of new jobs at developer level (how is that a bad thing....jobs) and AMD actually nudged Microsoft to have a hard look at what DirectX needs to be at (and will be at) so really...
