    Nvidia Adding Nine Sega, Warner Bros Games To GeForce Now Service

    It's Arkham series with a sword (well you get a katana in AK City to fight those clay guys)... Gets repetitive and you eventually start fighting 100s of orcs and a huge clan leader at the same time. Lots of same combos and blocking that then ups your multi to where you can do an insta...

    The Tenda F3 Aims For The Sub-$50 Router Market

    ISPs gladly provide you one for a very easy $10/mo "router fee" etc. Such a scam but it's not like everyone is out buying routers. This is nice if you don't want to flush $120/yr on the ISP crap and can fight with CS until they let you return their equipment. They've gotten very tricky now by...

    The Windows Store: Microsoft's Strategy To Attract PC Gamers

    This is about the only issue I have with it so far. I'm actually impressed that they got a AAA type game to the Store so quickly. I was able to pick up the new Tomb Raider for 80% off (slickdeals) and have played a couple hours of it on my 960. Looks amazing and haven't seen any frame drops...

    Dell XPS 15 9550 Gaming Laptop First Look

    That's only on full spec'd model on the Dell website. The $1799 config with 4k screen and 512GB SSD. The lower ones show they have the 56Whr battery and not the 84Whr. I would prefer to have the 84Whr battery but not at $1800... http://www.dell.com/us/p/xps-15-9550-laptop/pd?~ck=mn

    Fractal Design Define Nano S Mini-ITX Case Review

    Anyone have any advice on how I could cram 5 drives (2.5" or 3.5") into this case. That looks like alot of room between the front of the case and the mobo. I want to setup a mITX Plex Server. I've got everything pretty much spec'd out but can't find a good tiny case to use. Most of the cases...

    Lian Li's PC-M25 Can Fit Many Hard Drives In Compact Footprint

    This is the Plex server case I've been waiting for. Already have a mITX Obsidian 250d gaming rig built. Now I need a mITX storage server. I like the future proof 10GbE on this one: http://b2b.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5761#ov But rock racks looks pretty sweet too. Anyone...

    Microsoft Makes Windows 10 'Recommended' Update, Not 'Required'

    I'm about to finish my HTPC setup in a few weeks/months. I picked up an Nvidia Shield Console and have been using Plex for my Home Theater rips. AndroidTV is an excellent 10 foot UI and has alot of the commonly looked for android apps (This is one of the only uses of Android OS/UI that I...

    Intel, Qualcomm Atheros Collaborate To Ensure A Robust 802.11ad WiGig Ecosystem

    the loss of effective range is more of a downside to ad than it was from n (2.4ghz) to n/ac (5Ghz) I don't know how effective 60Ghz will be through a wall so you are effectively limited to one room being "super fast" on ad. That may work for home theater type setup where you need to stream 4k...
