    XPS 8300's won't support GTX 600's and Dell will not update BIOS

    Why would a company using proprietary parts let you upgrade your PC? I wouldn't be shocked if Dell went out of their way to make upgrading very hard if not impossible. I tried buying a Dell laptop once. There was a problem with my CC and the only place that deals with this was having some...

    Crucial 512GB for $396.49 on buy.com

    Same price as getting 2 256s. I would expect the price of 1 512 to be cheaper then 2 256s since there is 1 less of many things.

    Crysis 2 PC $8.99 Free Shipping - Newegg

    Funny thing is I still have the first one unopened for PC and second one unopened for PS3. Never got around to it.

    Alice: Madness Returns $5.99 on Steam

    Not a bad game. I always liked the story and played the first one a while ago and liked it. For $6 it's just right. Now for anything more no way.

    Alice: Madness Returns $5.99 on Steam

    Just finished it. SPOILER ALERT I just happen to watch the 10 worst game endings on youtube. This ranks up there. There is no ending. After all those clever puzzles they couldn't come up with an ending? Oh well onto Alice. Where have all the great games of the past gone? I...

    Lowest priced 7970 on newegg now is $460. $60 over your price range isn't that much. Just a tank of gas these days. :(

    Alice: Madness Returns $5.99 on Steam

    Stop making me spend more money.:cool: I always wanted to play that game but never had a 360. I don't think it's out for PS3.

    PC download games on Amazon

    Updates are nice. Can I download the game more then once with Amazon like I can with Steam? Side question. I have physical media for some games like HL2, Portal. Can I throw that out along with CD keys?

    I've been seeing this under some games. Is there any downside to this version compared to the Steam version?

    Radeon 7000 series price drop comming soon?

    Buy it now and enjoy it. How much is a month or two of not doing something you enjoy worth to you?

    7970's must be in short supply

    How many months has it been since 680s were released and still out of stock? Just because they had a short supply at release doesn't make it much different from a paper release. It's not like they didn't know they had a small stock during release and no supply thereafter. So instead of...

    Late to the Metro 2033 fan club

    Going to be replaying Stalker Shadows of Chernobyl and probably will pick up Clear Sky for the first time. Love games that have an atmosphere.

    Late to the Metro 2033 fan club

    That was average fps. Which means that a lot of the time I might be under that. I like to play with VSync turned ON to avoid tearing. It's really annoying to me. :( With PhysX turned off I might be able to stay above 60 the entire time. I just upgraded from a Core 2 Duo and 4000...

    Late to the Metro 2033 fan club

    I just got this game. I had a few questions about the video settings. See my sig for system specs. I was wondering about this PhysX option. I'm only asking because I know it's a Nvidia thing and don't know if it is a bigger struggle for AMD to run it. I ran the in game benchmark and got...

    What price does AMD need to lower to now that the 670 is out?

    I was fine with paying almost $500 just recently for one. :) I was actually on Newegg to buy the 680 but since it was out of stock got the 7970.

    Got a 7970 instead. Even if it does come back in stock from time to time it will be gouged.

    nVidia 670 benchmarks leaked

    Oh don't worry. There are times my stuff is in shipping soon stage for a week. They just don't want you to cancel it.

    Where is the illusive GTX-680?

    That's what I did. Not only with the video card, but cpu and mem. I have no brand loyalty just buy what's best AND in stock.

    will you be getting Ivy Bridge?

    Got tired of waiting for 3770k to come back in stock and got a 3570k from Microcenter. Much like last week I got tired of waiting for 680 and got a 7970 and got Corsair instead of Samsung RAM. So here is what I ordered last and this week. Intel 3570k Corsair H100 Corsair Obsidian 650D Corsair...

    Crucial M4 256GB $209 AC Buy.com

    I am about to make a new build. Getting a 256 SSD for sure. The only thing that worries me about the Crucial M4 is this review. Typically do SSDs have a longer or shorter life then magnetic drives? http://www.xbitlabs.com/articles/storage/display/marvell-ssd_7.html#sect0

    Difference between Toshiba Satellite and Satellite Pro

    I keep searching and can't find what the differences are. Is the case and keyboard exactly the same? What does Pro have to cost a little more?

    Dell Outlet purchase

    I will stay away from Dell for the rest of my life and advise all others to do the same. What I went through recently talking to their Indian support is a complete joke. And this is me trying to fix my order and buy a laptop. I don't know if it's a cultural thing over there, but if your...

    Panasonic 37" Inch IPS-Panel 1080p LCD ($449 shipped, no tax) /// Also 32" for $409

    Looks like 2011 models are out. The only difference I see is 120Hz being added to this model for 2011. http://www2.panasonic.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/prModelDetail?storeId=11301&catalogId=13251&itemId=615006&modelNo=Content01052011021513265&surfModel=Content01052011021513265 The U30...

    Radeon 6970 - 8 Pin PCI-E - Can I use adapter, avoid replacing PSU?

    That depends on how much current there is going to be going through those wires and how much they are rated for. You don't want to melt any wiring and maybe even start a fire. There is a reason they went to 8 pins. Probably because it exceeds the safe rating of 6 pins.

    i5 760 vs i7 930

    That means it's cheaper to run a i7 up north. My PC often doubles as a room heater. I don't have to run my heat as much. I save a boat load in the winter.

    UPS sizing

    I just had a power outage kill my PS3(wasn't even ON). So while shopping for a UPS for my future PS3 I had an idea of also getting one for my PC. I found this and it's plenty for a PS3. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16842102116 255W I'm also thinking of getting one for...

    HTC Touch Pro 2

    I just got a transcend 8gb micro sdhc card for it and the phone doesn't see it. I used file explorer and nothing. Also when I went into memory settings it said memory card not installed. This sucks. I read a bunch of forums about these size cards working fine. Do I need to format it maybe...

    HTC Touch Pro 2

    Can someone show me how to install apps on this phone? I've been searching and got very vague instructions like copy the app to your phone. Where exactly do I put in, what folder? How do I then find it using the phone? I have a bunch of apps downloaded on my PC.

    Where are all those free apps?

    Got my TP2 and want to get some apps. Definitely need some GPS apps for maps and directions.

    HTC Touch Pro 2

    Really? Mine looks horrible. Very visible. I don't think it's my fault as the back looks good. But the front of the phone is a different color, black. So maybe that's it. And I can see it from a mile away. I just send them an email as the return address is conveniently not on their...

    HTC Touch Pro 2

    How do I check if my phone is SPL unlocked? When I turned it on for the first time there was a message that said 'SPL unlocked.' :confused: That SPL unlocker is for custom ROMs or do I need it even if I want to put win6.5 on my phone?
