    Can one 670 2gb power 3 monitors?

    I went Radeon last time with a 6870 so I could do 3 monitors on one card (both for extended and surround/eyefinity). I recently replaced it with a GTX 660 ti and it works fine in both surround and regular extended desktop modes with all 3 displays (I have 3x 24-inch panels).

    hypothetical: nvidia in a console -> more physX titles?

    All of the current consoles already run PhysX (the CPU vs GPU PhysX distinction is not as relevant to the consoles).

    New space strategy games on steam

    Endless space is a very solid 4x game. I've been playing it since Alpha and feel like I got my money's worth.

    Valve to let gamers choose which games end up on Steam

    That's about all that you get with some preorders now, so I don't see a major problem.

    Mechwarrior Online (Previously MW5/MW3015)

    There is collision with both friendly and enemy mechs as well as friendly fire.

    I never knew aero was such a vram and performance hog on games

    Read his comment again. Windows 7 will still prompt to change to basic mode when it detects low performance. Now, the detection may not be all that accurate, so there is no guarantee that you won't have "low-performance" events that it does not detect.

    Why resolution blockages?

    It's significantly harder/expensive to scale up the sizes of screen technologies. It's not like a semiconductor fab, where you can plan on disabling certain parts of the product that don't pass validation and sell it as a crippled version. If you have too many dead pixels, you have to throw...

    The Next X: X Rebirth

    I wouldn't even bother with any mods(those are typically tougher to install as you have to splice together resource files to use more than one) as most of the common complaints aren't present. There are enough ships in vanilla to keep you busy, and most of the engine/mechanics stuff is at least...

    X3: Albion Prelude on Steam

    I am enjoying it quite a bit, it feels a lot more finished wrt to features and I noticed that I haven't felt a need to install as many scripts or mods as I would have with TC or Reunion. I currently just have NPC Bailing Add-on (turned on super low as hulls are increased in AP), Cheat Scripts...

    The Next X: X Rebirth

    X3: AP has some nice engine tweaks (bigger UI screens for larger resolutions), better OOS combat sim, more accurate missile combat and turret scripts. I've been having a lot of fun with it and it's almost surprising how few scriptsor mods I've felt a need to add to it compared to previous...

    2 new space games on steam, Sol Exodus and Evochron Mercenary

    Doesn't really. You still control a single ship at a time(I think you can hire merc wingmen, but that's the extent of the multi-ship ownership) and I don't believe there is a universe-wide sim going on like in X3. I've tried the demo of EM and just couldn't get into it.

    Successor or potential successors to LCDs?

    That's relatively recent, though, right? Last I remember, they were still trying to fab all colors and having issues with blue LED lifetime.

    NVIDIA preparing revised GTX 560 Ti with 448 cores

    There's no reason to assume that. The GTX 260 192sp and core 216 variants could be SLI'ed together just fine. Unless they have overhauled SLI detection in the drivers since I jumped onto my 6870, the driver still mostly cares about the model string matching when deciding if it will allow you...

    "I Don't get all the hate for Dragon Age 2" - Take 2

    Frankly, I found DA:O to be completely forgettable and bland and had no desire to ever pick it up again after the first playthrough. Other than the origin story and endgame, everything else felt like boring filler. (Disclaimer, I never got around to Awakening or many of the later DLCs) DA2 at...

    Why is Valve abandoning their games, except for tf2

    The episodic format obviously failed as the content creation costs likely aren't low enough to make relatively short games released more often (which implies a lower price point) very profitable for them.

    In case you're wondering, the Mechwarrior reboot IS apparently still happening.

    The annoying part is that it wasn't even the original unseen warhammer model in the trailer, they grabbed the center torso from a rifleman and tweaked a few other details IIRC and Harmony Gold still blew a gasket.

    Any X-Wing type games around anymore?

    Vengeance or Mercs? If the latter, go grab the free rerelease from Mektek.net. It works fine on Win7 x64 out of the box, and has a ton of extra content (~100 new mechs and a ton of newer weapon systems).

    Whos played might and magic 1 lately?

    In MM3, one of the better ways around this was to start buying cheap basic items in Fountain Head and enchanting them to sell back for profit. This eats up gems, though, so worked best if you stockpile them in the bank and siphon off the interest for this technique.

    Whos played might and magic 1 lately?

    Might and Magics 3-5 were like that. You had to take advantage of the banks and interest to make enough money to keep training as the costs rose tremendously and there is a finite amount of monsters and loot if you destroy all of the creature spawners.

    Transformers Universe - Yep, they're making a Tranformers MMO.

    They did a surprisingly good job with that last Transformers FPS, so fingers crossed I suppose.

    Cryptocoin Mining?

    Yes, you need to go install a video card driver with openCL support (the cats usually have a version with or without on AMD's site, and you can optionally install the Stream SDK separately). Slush's pool is the name of the pool in question in GUIMiner.

    Money laundering. I'm somewhat surprised that there isn't an online gambling site that takes bitcoins.

    Installing steam to another drive and system stability???

    You're overthinking this. Install it to another volume if the storage available there better fits your game install needs, otherwise don't bother. The Steam client is actually pretty good about portability. You can mostly drop in the SteamApps folder from an old installation once the client...

    How the Dems killed Yucca, and the incompetence of Jaczko

    The saddest part is that this should be a non-issue and we should be reprocessing the spent fuel. We should opt out of or amend any non-proliferation treaties that prohibit us from doing this, as they aren't accomplishing much when we have all of this waste still sitting around. Terrorists can...

    Steam Daily Deals: 6/20/11 Monday Overlord 2 $2.50 75% off

    I have the original Hacker: Evolution, but just can't get into it. The Unix-y CLI embedded into the game UI is hard to stare at on a larger screen and is just uncomfortable compared to Uplink.

    3 displays on single nvidia gpu possible yet?

    I've seen some non-reference 500 series Geforce cards with dual-DVI + 1 displayport. Not sure if they can drive all 3 at once, but I don't see why not (displayport doesn't need an extra RAMDAC like the DVI or HDMI ports would)...

    Thoughts on "8 Core" Bulldozer and "4 Core Sandy Bridge"

    Because 3d rendering is an embarrassingly parallel problem and has fairly good scaling regardless of which the the two GPU architectural design choices you mentioned. General software that you run on your CPU is unfortunately still not as friendly to multi-threaded execution and there are much...

    Eyefinity: lowest common resolution/aspect 1680x1050 1600x1200 1920x1200

    It's going to look like shit on non-native resolutions anyway and pretty much run any immersiveness that would otherwise be gained, just bite the bullet and get matching displays. Even 24-inch panels are pretty cheap nowadays. Edit: Go try SoftTH first as it you can get it working with...

    catalyst 11.5 released with new and improved controllpanel plus 11.5a hotfix

    Mostly because game developers suck at writing code to a standard, and next month's games tend to have an alarmingly high probability of not working properly with an unhappily high percentage of graphics chips.

    Can I clock my SLI GPUs asynchronously?

    IME, SLI has never been smart enough to override clocks on async-clocked cards. In the past, many overclocking utilities weren't sophisticated enough to independently clock the cards when overclocking, which I think has given many the impression that the driver was always syncing them. Several...

    Why do graphics card designers lock shaders?

    Some people want to spend $500 on a video card and have the best available, others want to spend $200. If you only sell a $200 video card model, you're (the manufacturer) leaving money on the table. Binning has to occur at some point in the manufacturing life cycle, otherwise you are...

    Steam: can I play two games at once?

    That's the entire point, he has a single license. If he wants two people to be able to play the same game, they need to purchase a separate license on a different steam account. He wants to let two players play on the equivalent of a single retail copy, which usually isn't allowed on...

    Steam: can I play two games at once?

    Not at all, I'm pretty sure that ToS that you agreed to every time you make a purchase says that you can't share the account and only the account holder is licensed to use the account.
