I just beat this game, and the endings are both lame agreed. The driving with over 1/2 the screen full of jeep just makes it suck to drive. The Map is painfull to look at. There is no compass, what were they thinking. The cursor on the map is OFF by like 3 jeep lengths to the left and...

Bump for best nvidia video card for the money + best PC game ever made.

I own this exact monitor and i LOVE IT! Make sure you have a very deep desk or you will go blind sitting so close to such a huge monitor. It doubles as my HDTV of course, and everyone who comes over is blown away by its crisp HD image. Bump for best monitor ever made. Actually its only...

mx518 vs. Deathadder, Deathadder wins hands down. I own both, and still use the 518 for work. If you own a 518 and havent tried a deathadder, then you don't know do you? The Razor Lycosa keyboard sucks. I returned it. I bought the Saitek Eclipse II instead, and it has performed well so far.

Deathadder arrived, it is by far superior to the mx518. It has built in memory so I can set it up with the software, then I could take the mouse to another computer and it will keep all its settings! No having to run software to control it. It feels and handles like a cloud of butter, I...

The mx518 feels great, has great reaction time etc.. but I hate Logitech's setpoint software, there is not a single sensitivity setting that I liked, I must be accustomed to windows built in sensitivity switch. And the ability to change the mouse sensitivity on the fly makes sense in theory...

The Razor Lachesis has some bad reviews because of its hand held comfort. For this reason, I will be going with the Razor Deathadder. For a keyboard, I chose the Razer Lycosa because it is high end yet simple. Of course all of this is heavy in the oppinion game, and I am someone who likes...

I am looking for the absolute best gaming mouse, preferable wired. I am thinking about the Razor Lachesis. I already own the Logitech mx518 and I do not like it. I donot like the sensitivity button located where it is accidentally switched, plus it reverts to low everytime you restart the...

The type of onboard sound obviously matters a great deal. AC 97, which is super popular we can all agree has its limitations. AC880 however, is on the level of a dedicated sound card that is a few years old.

First, thank you for the good posts! Ok so now I have been useing it for 3 days. I watch movies, play music, and most importantly play video games. Here is what I have noticed so far. - As far as is the onboard sound good, the answer is absolutely yes. - when connected via optical...

I have onboard sound, and I had to download the latest driver from the manufactorer (gigabyte), and it came with a soundmgr utility. Using this utility, I could set it to 6 ch audio and test it. Check your motherboard manual, it should go over how to setup 5.1 sound.

I just bought Logitech z-5450 speakers for $211 shipped off of ebay. They have 2 optical in ports, and not to mention way better sound than the speakers you are looking at. These retail for $500 and are not manufactured anymore, but do a quick ebay search and you will find some in that 200$...

Come on help, I need answers !

I recently acquired a Logitech z-5450 wireless 5.1 sound system, and I have a Realtek ALC883 onboard sound card. Should I upgrade my sound card? Does it really make much of a difference? I am not an audio-file. Thanks!
