    65in DLP 120Hz, 1080p....135w???

    I would prefer LaserDLP, but they are not as much as better than the LED DLP, and I will take LED DLP over LCD any time. I would consider purchasing LCD only for the 'wall-hanging' feature and costs $3000+. The thing that really bothers me about LCD is the "Motion Blur" or "Pixel-ation" on...

    any good Action RPGs?

    I'm a fan of Diablo but I've put countless hours on TQ/IT. There was supposed to be a TQ2, but they didn't have cash to go forward for development. They had a sales demo...but oh well.

    any good Action RPGs?

    Titan Quest + Expansion only costs $19.99. It's not the end of the world if you happen not to like it after playing. I love D2, but I love TQ/IT more. Here is a brief background how Titan Quest/Immortal Throne conceived. The owner of Iron Lore --the developer for TQ/IT-- was a fan of...

    any good Action RPGs?

    I concur with Titan Quest + Immortal Throne. Out of the package, the game can occupy your time until D3 comes out. If that's still not good enough, there is mods (xmax) to the game that enhances the challenge by increasing the monsters 10x and plus battling 3x bosses. If this is not even...

    55 nm GT200 on October 22?

    There are rebates for GTX 260 (old version) to clear out inventory for the core 216. No rebate for the new core 216. However, there are also rebates for the current GTX 280. If there is any indication, like GTX 260, there is going to be a minor update to GTX 280 coming soon. Probably sooner...

    55 nm GT200 on October 22?

    There is certainly something new cooking as there have been rebates from all nVidia partners for the GTX 260/280. It's an indication that they try to clear out the inventory for the new ones. I am try to resist the urge to buy two GTX 260 (old version) for $249 each along with $20 rebates...

    Dual Port 32-bit PCI Network Adapter

    4-ports is going to be overkill for what I need but it is cheaper than mcmilljb's recommendation at newegg (it says pci 2.2 comp.). It's going to be in a linux box. I hope it stables enough.

    Are there any cases like the zalman gt1000

    I agree. Zalman GT1000 is probably the last case you'll ever buy. Zalman design is simple and streamline. I have the case and aesthetically appealing to me. It offers excellent cooling. I was surprised that the internal case temperature is the same as the room temperature. Amazing.

    Any one used a HR-01 original?

    I have used the orginal HR-01 to cool the Pentium D 945. Operate fanless, the cpu is about 50C-idle to 65C-load. By having a 120mm fan attach, the temp range between 35C-44C. You don't need a high RPM fan; the high speed fan actually makes it worst. The fan RPM around 500-600RPM is ideal.

    nVidia GT200 Series Review Thread

    I take it you're joking that it'll cost under a buck per month running 8800GTX? I assume you never see electric bill statement, do you? Obviously, my 36" CRT TV (380 watts) is on an avg 10 hours per day. The lights in my son and daughter's room (age 2 and 4) are on throughout the night every...

    nVidia GT200 Series Review Thread

    It is valid. The electric bill does go up quite a bit. I have the older card 8800GTX and on average I spent on playing game about 5 hours a day. The electric bill usually runs around $175/month. This last couple of months, well I have some other things to do, I didn't spend a single hour...

    Laptop Expected Lifetime

    A business type notebook seems to last longer than the consumer models in term of durability. I have an HP business laptop (4 yrs) and it's still running strong in term of performance. The only exception is game; well the notebook is not a gaming oriented due to a weak graphic subsystem. In...

    Take a look at this rig I want to build?

    There won't be any issue. I pair my Q6600 with 6400 [800mhz] RAM. If you're using DDR2 motherboard, you can opt for the lowest DDR2 speed if cost is a concern but a DDR2 6400 is a sweet spot. one thing though, don't skimp on power supply. The CORSAIR CMPSU-520HX is an excellent PSU and it...

    I made choice Number 1 !

    I've never liked HP consumer laptop models [pavillion] because the touchpad is very slippery LOL. Darn "Hi Definition" is a household name now or what? It seems like every vendor use this term. And Consumers fall for it. Wait for a Penryn notebook...it's coming in a couple weeks.

    Dell XPS M1530 + Penryn = kickass machine?

    For Sony I think the delay is the Penryn shipment. No, Sony has 1920x1200 res. on their 17". the 15.4" goes up to 1440x900 I think. I'm going to get the Penryn AR series...about $2200 I get HiColor LCD and Blu-Ray Writer. Yeah it's ridiculous that these vendors change $300-600 for...

    Their web servers are hosted by EEE PC xxx clustered. The traffic is handled by 9600 bauds modem. LOL, yeah it's ridiculously slow. That's one of the reason I stop buying their motherboard. I'm interested of one of the laptop -- V2S Lamborghini.

    I have the 8800GTX, which is the more logical thing to do? 1. buy another 8800GTX to SLI ($450-500) 2. buy 2 8800GTS(512MB) to SLI ($720-800) and retire the 8800GTX 3. Or wait for the next king of the hill by nVidia? I guess option 1 is a no-brainer because it's cheaper. But I don't know...
