the thing is they are far from superior. More secure solaris and most version of linux such as red hat or ubuntu are more secure. Windows supports more devices than macs ever will and there hardware is prone to overheating and failure. My cheap dell laptop has been running fine for 3 years now...

Its simple the cable companies are not going to upgrade there networks and wait till the situation in this country gets really bad. Then they are going to run to congress and cry saying they can't afford to update the technology and have the government pay for it. To bad Verizon keeps laying...

As the topic says I would like some recommendation from the community about a new sound card for my computer it can be either pci-e or pci. Price is not a huge object but bang for the buck is still important. I play mostly RTS and FPS games. Also stable driver support is important to me. I have...

I would say that the ati made sense but it was bad timing correct me if I am wrong but wasn't ati purchased right before or after the phenom flopped because of the erratum bug. Fast forward amd is only now catching up to the time it lost they have a talented development team especially in the...

It happens to everyone once in a while just scan remove reformat if necessary and move on

Hello and thanks for the reading. I am currently a student and my schools curriculum has us doing lots (and I mean lots of writing). I am also fairly busy with a job and extracurricular. This leaves me only so much time for homework and I am a terrible writer right of the start often forgetting...

My opinion is to simply go with a Radeon 4870 it can be found for around the same price as the 9800gx2 and I believe offer comparable performance. the 9800x2 would be more powerful in some games but it relies on sli profiles to exist for that game. I know that my experience with the 7950gx2 was...

The performance to price difference for the 4850 compared to the 8800gt even at a 22inch monitor is enough to get the 4850 over the 8800gt IMO though the benchies speak for themselves.
