Ok, great. Thanks for the response. I'll fill out that form.

Picked up a Seasonic Snow Silent 750 back on 3 October 2015 from the Egg, to power a new X99/5930k system. Had been running good up until about a month ago. Since then, if I reboot or sleep/hibernate or shutdown, I'd have significant trouble getting power to come back on. I would need to toggle...

Imperial president (considering) issuing dictates without the consent of congress, and in violation of the separation of powers? Push me over with a feather! EOs are designed/intended to offer clarifications on enforcement of pre-existing statutory law, not create its own law by fiat.

I need a Corsair SSD to replace my stripe raid... quicker, cooler, fewer volts, and less likely to fail!

I fell in love with the Dodge Viper... first drove it in "Test Drive 4" back in the day. I will buy one.

My understanding of the video was that it was done by "real time rendering". It's not pre-rendered in any sense of the word. This is no cut-scene that is simply being played back; no, in fact, this is being displayed in real time, by the real graphics engine. If it was a pre-recorded video...

I always loved the look of UE3 graphics. High quality textures, lighting, particles, everything... smooth and realistic in appearance. Wow, impressive. Historically, Unreal Engine has been one of the most heavily optimized, efficient graphics engines available. Also, if you check the...

Correct - buy once, play forever. I believe you can get a free trial from their website, too.

@klokwyse: GuildWars is a good RPG - success depends on skill, not gear and not time spent, as the "best" armor has the very same stats as the "normal" armor. The only difference is the appearance. I'm excited for GuildWars 2. Now they just need a release date lol.

Intel, Corsair, ...?? ? maybe WD//kingston//on-sale// dunno

Corsair kicks the crap out of all the other RAM manufacturers because of their reliability. These sticks just don't fail.

Picked SC2 - I'm a storyline kind of guy. I realize the story was short, but I enjoyed it. SP levels were correct difficulty, bonus objectives lent to useful/interesting powerups. Cost was steep, but in the end I enjoyed it enough to be satisfied with the purchase.

I got to the second page of results and couldn't take it anymore... the colors representing the various GPUs weren't even consistent. Plus, why am I reading about "omg framerate!11!one!!" when all I care about is playable vs non-playable at the highest eye candy level? Reminds me why I...

I need to hear my games better, because you can't kill your enemy if you don't hear them.

My first card was a 6600GT, made by XFX. I have since bought 4 more cards, including my 260 GTX, and have directed at least 6 friends to buy from XFX. My loyalty and my recommendations won't change... so, it looks like my cards in teh future will be radeons.
