Re: Zotac GTS 250 X2 Spotted

Let's face it, there's really no DX11 game that is worth it out anyway. Even today its still mostly DX9. The only DX11 game that looks worth having on the horizon is Metro 2033 and that's only because Nvidia is using it as their launch title with their GTX4** series.

Re: Porsche Presents 918 Spyder Concept Sports Car

That looks sexy as hell. Looks like they actually slightly broke out of the Porsche template with this one, lol.

I can't wait to see it in Top Gear.

Re: 50 pin DVD drive

This connector is for laptop optical drives. A laptop to sata converter would run you about $15-20 bucks.

Re: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 480 Video Card Pictures From CeBIT

I'd love to see if a single one of these can handle PhysX + 3D Vision without buckling. My GTX 260 crashes in Batman with PhysX + 3D vision both on.

Re: Opera 10.50 beta for Mac released today

10.5 FInal came out yesterday as well. I love how fast the new javascript engine is. No more 1 sec waiting when loading WYSIWYG editors for me, which is amazing. Also, thankfully, its the first Opera update I did where it didn't overwrite my keyboard shortcuts. lol.

What's your budget?

You've got money to blow = Corsair 800D (full tower)

Re: Black Holes Colliding..?

Black holes collide all the time. The center of the galaxy is theoretically where most of this stuff happens as that's where the oldest stars are and where there is more density (we are located somewhere 3/4 outs in the arms of the milky way galaxy) Space-Time Continuum doesn't work that way.

Re: Clients From Hell

lol that reminds me, my mom handed me a really old photo of my grandmother as a kid to restore in Photoshop. Except there is a giant hole in the photograph where her entire head is.

Can I disable popup msg when USB drive plugged in W7/Vis?

Anyone know how to disable that message "scan and fix, or continue without scanning" message that pop ups everytime you plugin a USB drive in Vista or Windows 7?

I have to plug and unplug my ipod and several thumbdrives throughout the day and it's really annoying.

Thank you in advance.

Re: ATI Radeon HD 5830 Video Card Specs & Pictures Leak Out

wow finally. I know its an unpopular opinion but I thought 5770 was too weak and wasn't worth the $200 when the 5830 was just around the corner. This now should be a proper match to the beast that is the 4890.
