At work I just received a DAT Optic eBOX-TeSUF 5 bay raid enclosure with eSata, USB, firewire thunderbolt and USB3(through included esata->USB3 adapter). We populated it with 5 4TB WD red drives and are using it in a raid 5 setup formatted for mac (Mac OS Extended (Journaled)).
Right now I...
Xbox 360 version dropped about 2 hours ago, it's a blast to play so far. I love the attack boat, I never had my 2 boat kills pin until this dlc. I used to play this on my PC but now I'm on xbox(pc runs osx only now for work), I know a lot of [H]'s play battlefield on PC, anyone else...
I built the rig in my sig earlier this month and it runs well for the most part except some games will lock up. The screen goes black and it seems like the video card shuts off. In some games it will rarely ever happen (MW2 only happened once after like 5 hours), in others it will happen a...
Hi, I have a logitech z-550 5.1 surround sound setup hooked up to my pc(through 6 channel direct if it matters), I was thinking about getting a headset to compliment the 5.1 system for voice chat in games, like the 360 headset with one headphone and the mic.
Will most games that support voice...
Hi, doing my first build in like 5 years(last one was an athlon 64 2800+ 6600gt agp). And I've got everything together except ram which was delayed (till tomorrow hopefully).
Anyways I've got the 24 pin connector connected from my OCZ modstream pro 600W and I was wondering should the...
Here's an article and a video showing a tech demo of CryEngine 3 being run on ps3 and 360. Goes to show there still a lot of untapped power left in this generation. I personally don't see the need for a new gen of consoles for a few years if devs can keep this up...
I'm looking for a couple recommendations for some wii games, my mom got a wii for christmas with wii fit, after trying it for a while she says she doesn't like it and would rather go to the gym.
So now we have a wii in our basement that doesn't get used, only games being wii sports and wii...

It's only for sale in Canada right now at $419
Viewing angles are only 160 though and it's got a 2ms response time so it's probably TN panel.
It's nice to see manufacturers upping the resolution...
I'm looking for a 20" WS to hook up to my macbook pro. I want to use it for video monitoring and photo editing for personal projects(I'll borrow a spyder2 from work to calibrate it). I was wondering what my options would be in the $300-$350 range, I know I don't want a TN panel, but I dont...
I recently got a D-Link DI-524 Rev E1 wireless router for use with my macbook pro, but I can't get my cable internet to work with it. Both ethernet and the airport can connect to the router's setup IP(192.168.0.1), but I've been using ethernet to set it up and I've gone through the setup...
I have a maxtor one touch II that I use for school(digital filmmaking) and the other day it decided to take a dive off the desk when I was finished editing in final cut. about a 2 and a half foot fall to carpet about 10 seconds after being unmounted from the mac desktop. Now my drive runs...
This has been happening for a few weeks, whenever I try to open limewire my screen turns black witha cursor, you can move the cursor for 5 seconds until that freezes too, forcing me to a hard restart. It's not just with limewire, many java applets do this to my computer almost instantly after...
I bought an xfx 6600gt from a [H] member a while back and just recently tried to hook it up to my tv with an svideo cable only to find out it doesnt have an svideo port but a vivo port. So I checked ebay and most the cables I find in canada are ATI vivo cables, can I use them on a 6600gt or do...
I have a benq x700pro keyboard and it uses a driver that runs in the system tray to utilize all the functions of the keyboard, but randomly the driver will freeze causing all the extra buttons on the keyboard not to work and also it causes normal keys to become partially unresponsive and it's a...
theres one for FEAR but I havent seen a screen thread for Quake 4, so I thought I'd start it. 56k beware and all that.
Heres a few pumped out by my 6600gt:
futureshop is getting rid of their stock of last gen ipods and you can get a 20gb colour screen ipod for $299, the same price as the 4gb nano. Also last gens 60gb has dropped to $429(the same price I paid for my 30gb a few months ago). Great deals for those looking for an ipod and dont care...
Ever since I made the switch from athlon xp to a64 I've had reocurring problems with my internet connection(cable). First problem was internet explorer took over 10 seconds to connect to the internet whenever I started a new window(when you start up it says 'detecting proxy settings' at the...
after updating my rig to a64 from athlon xp internet explorer takes a while to start, it opens right away but it takes about 15 seconds to load the first page(after that pages load at a normal speed) at the bottom during the 15 seconds it says "detecting proxy settings". I'm gonna try...
today I upgraded from athlon xp to a64(reformatted and installed XP home) and twice in the past 20 minutes I've got this message followed by my computer restarting, it's pretty annoying and I wouldn't doubt if it keeps happening.

Today I upgraded my athlon xp to an athlon 64(reformatted and reinstalled windows), fired up windows XP installed the stuff on the disc that came with the mobo(including the reatek audio drivers) now sound effects work(msn messenger) but when I go to play a song in windows media player or itunes...
my mom wanted to buy a computer from a pawnshop for our shop to do accounting on since the old compaq at the office is super slow. Anyway I priced it out and it turns out to be cheaper to upgrade my system to a64 and put my athlon xp components in the office computer(which was about the same...
I want an agp 6600gt, used is ok(as long as it still runs great), preferred if it weren't overclocked by the user. I will pay $200CAD shipped. I would like to buy from someone in Canada to avoid border taxes that comes from buying from USA. I would like to buy from someone with good...
I've had this for a while and stopped using it a long time ago, it's a dazzle digital video creator 80, it plugs into usb and you plug any video/audio source up to it(rca and s-video) and it will import the video at 320x240. Great for ripping vhs to your hard drive.
Here it is on newegg-...
I know there are both dvi and vga lcds and I was wondering if a vga lcd would give the same sharpness as a CRT(also vga), given I'm not buying a no name brand lcd.
my card(msi fx5700le 256mb) is supported by the bf2 demo(fx5200 and up) so I tried running in full screen but it crashes as soon as I try to start a game. So I tried running it in windowed mode(at both 800x600 and 1024x768 low settings of course) and it runs smoothly except for one thing, there...
Since I put another 512mb of ram in my system I decided to fire up the Point of Existance Mod for BFV and I noticed that every server I was going to I was having connection lag(the connection problem message would pop up frequently, ping between 70-100). So I did some speed tests(from my isp's...
