    power supply tester question

    I have a basic tester that has LED's in a circle that just light up if the volatage is ok. My question is that On an old 250 ALL the lights light up fine, but on the latest PSU's I have (650W+ 700W) the -5 light does not turn green. However they seem to be working fine, is it something to...

    Google-Sponsored Satellite Sends First Images

    Does anyone know when they are going to start replacing the current set of images? I'd like to have the updates set of Steve Fossets crash area before they remove the wreckage, or at least put up the ones that were being used for the search (I don't know where they put them since the ones...

    DirectX 11 and 40nm GPUs Coming in 2009

    I guess it was MS that said it 2-3 weeks ago, which is why I just got another 3870 to crossfire until next Christmas (comes out pretty close, plus I really did not want to toss out yet ANOTHER video card especially since this was such a fast release)

    Blu-ray 2008: The Studio Report Card

    You could get away with it for regular DVD's for awhile since the quality was not going to degrade anywhere as fast as it did on VHS, and there were VERY little things called "extras" in the beginning because all the studios were doing WAS making sure you could get the same movie in the new...
