Share your predictions, this is my prediction. I notice virtually all phones and tablets run on android (windows phones never really got anywhere so the only real other OS competition is IOS, but that is only on Apple phones). All other phones basically use android, so many software packages...

On low settings certain games are playable, but in order to get the most out of low end hardware you have to do a few things. 1. Close all unnecessary background processes, sometimes even a restart every now and then is good. 2. Update all graphical drivers if there are newer version out. 3...

You can get back original files in their non corrupted form with recovery programs, they are in the layer of the HDD. How it works from my own experience is like this. Pretend in theory you have a 10mb HDD. Pretend it's brand new, so you put 10mb worth of pictures on it. You then delete them...

Since it's a desktop replacement you could just pull the battery out and leave the power cord in. As far as taking it somewhere, sure you would use the battery then. I doubt large laptops with large screens like 17 and 18 inch as well as powerful CPU's and good mobile GPU's etc have good...

That's so easy. You can make many gaming PC's for that money that will run the latest games at max. So you have. CPU, Can get Intel Core i7-4790 (10k score on passmark). About $310 GPU, You can get GeForce GTX 970 (7th most powerful on passmark). About $315 Motherboard, You can get the MSI...

I have had a bunch of PSU's a few good, and some cheap ones. But nothing ever happened to them, I am unsure the likelihood of it frying components. I know a guy who's CPU stopped working and it didn't do anything to the rest of his computer. I believe from the 240 (or USA 120) volts to 12V...

Integrated graphics used to be a joke, but today it's actually usable and good (especially with AMD's A series). Intel are improving their integrated graphics also. The discreet graphics card in time may be in danger. Like with AMD's A series there are very new games at max settings that...

Brand doesn't really matter too much, many are made in the same factories. As long as you go with a common known brand then you should be good. A fast Sata 2 one is also good enough, depends what you do. Most of the time the bottle neck is elsewhere. After all, once something is loaded into...

I can't speak for every situation, but I did indeed have a HDD that had windows on it in one computer and I did have another computer with a totally different motherboard and I put it into that one and it did indeed boot up and have no problems. So it isn't like it doesn't work all the time...

Well I am well versed but that doesn't stop me from stumbling onto a forum (not this one) and finding some people say some pretty confusing things and they all agree with each other which makes me scratch my head a hit. For example I was reading a forum where a guy was making a HTPC and...

Alright so I was on the flash drive and I right clicked a folder and it said it had like 17gb of data in it. Keep in mind I have other data on there also. I was thinking this is screwy I will pull it out and put it back in. But once I did that the flash drive doesn't work anymore. The light on...

Now I am not saying this forum specifically. In fact I am making thing about another forum where I read someone say something that just is simply wrong. Then I remember a few other forums where people were saying crazy things also. Basically I realize that if you overcharge a lithium battery...

Can anyone on here explain this. I have never heard it before and thought that when overcharging a flooded lead acid battery will only release hydrogen and oxygen gas. This is what all the other educational sites about flooded lead acid batteries say. But I read one particular site that...

Well we all know there are cable limitations on certain interfaces but I hear people explaining the limitations with things that make no sense at all. Claiming that it's because it's "copper wire and limited technology". Claim that it's "Signal loss because of the copper wires in the cable"...
