all drives have their own adapter, among the drives tested 2 of them were the seagate slim drives, so they were USb powered. even moving them across other PCs the issue persists and i have plenty of USB ports to test, seems only using them on console aleves this issue

Recently about a week ago I went to watch a movie on one of my seagate drives (backup plus hub 6TB) but it was hitching and locking up, however when I move said file over to anything WD it played just fine. The issue wasn't isolated to just that one seagate drive either. It was effecting any and...

Have you tried usign the volume controls found on the taskbar (right click on volume icon and go to open Volume mixer) ? Newer OS like win7 allow the OS to individually manage audio for separate programs. Perhaps windows has COD:MW2 being set by default to a lower level

you have to remember that the title states $13,000 with a US currency tag, the 7979 is in the euro curreny and that is actually alot higher than the US currency. So 7979 euro = 13,000 U.S.

Keplar? didnt they say they 2013 chipset was called maxwell? Fermi ->Keplar->Maxwell, that was the release order. i never heard of anything about them using keplar for 2 generations. Fermi was used for 2 gens because the 5xx was a refresh and not a new tech launch.

Hi, i am wondering if anybody knows if a revision A12 board will work as a suitable replacement for an A03 board in an ASUS ROG G60VX laptop? A fast response would be appreciated.

The only thing about this review that stumps me is the whole 4.7 GBs of Vram usage on the CFX setup. Nvidia stopped using Vram once the cards hit their caps, but the AMD build went almost 2 GBs beyond this limit. Do you know how or why this happened? My only guess is that AMD uses System Ram...

What ever happened to the performance that could match 3 GTX 580 from the sameratine video at GDC? If this has 3 times as many rendering pipes as the 580s then why is its performance so low? I mean a 200% increase in the number of pipes and yet were seeing only a 25% performance increase here...

asus has a 27" for about $320, here is a list of them from newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ProductList.aspx?Submit=ENE&Description=asus%2027%20led%20monitor&nm_mc=AFC-C8Junction&cm_mmc=AFC-C8Junction-_-na-_-na-_-na&AID=10440897&PID=3624099&SID=

well the 8150 chips were never meant to be over clocked very high across all of its cores to begin with, even the OC benchmarkers had to disable most of the cores to get it to OC correctly. but even still you should be able to get at most 4.7 out that chip on all 8 cores, what is your cooling...

Well for starters you can tell us what your current monitor supports since not all of us know dells stuff, but I'm going to go off an a hunch and assume its runs either 1600x900 16:9 or 1680x1050 16:10. If you are running this then you're wanting to upgrade to a 1080P monitor if my guess is...

is the game fully patched? i noticed that you more than likely got your copy either retail or from D2D. as for why it isnt working for you on win7 x64, that is a weird issue since i have a lot of games that came out way back in the XP days and even the win98 days and they work flawlessly on my...

have you tried running as admin? some games made before wi 7 need admin rights to play or they just close right after launch also have you done any driver tweeks to your card such as any forced graphics modes?

Hi! i have a linksys 3200 router and i am wondering what all External USB HDD work with it. I have a WD 1 TB but it doesn't seem to work with it. I know that with the latest Firmware the router supports drives upto 3 TB so i know my capacity is not the issue but rather it seems that the drive...

well i have been looking at cases on new egg and these are some of the ones that caught my interest. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119225 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811119160 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811163161...

i'm still looking for that texture pack that was in the doom 3 pic on page 35 In regards too rage i feel the gtx 580 3GB cards play the best since they have all that extra ram for textures. Perhaps rage is detecting that the cards don't have enough ram to run the visuals very well?

well here is another major difference from older generations to now and that being the old generations pretty much used parts that were created from scratch as stated the PS2 was all Sony in house developed. but i suppose that if you want to be technical about it since we are using hardware that...

well the consoles of back then didnt have to develop as long. ps2 was announced in 2000 and released the same year but only because all its parts were in house made. but xbox and GC were releases almost 1.5 years after their announcements for the very reasons i mentioned. X360 didn't take too...

well another thing we have to think about is time scheduling. First they have to pick the parts, then create the SDK kits for them then get those kits to developers so that the consoles have games at launch. when you consider how long this cycle will take you'll come to realize that the tech in...

Well from what i have read and seen of the technical specs for BD, its faults lie in its cache system. First mistake was having the modules on the cores share from a single cache. second mistake was actually reducing the size of the cache from 64kb to 16kb. many of the reviews show that the...

kind of makes me wonder if they called this game Rage, knowing it would incite such a reaction?

For years I've criticized epic for its engine having terrible pop in of textures, but damn this game makes EU3 look pristine. What did they do with this engine that has caused so many issues with the PC version compared to idtech4, which by the way I still feel has a lot of life left in it. I've...

not to mention that the old DOS games were hard to find bugs in, especially DN3d and doom since they were games that you didn't have to explore the whole level map to complete them and often the bugged sections would get over looked by many

Well technically dx11 has nothing to do with rage since its openGL, but yeah the horsepower behind the cards in general should not be forcing the game to auto adjust the visuals so much.

well its a direct comparison to that doom 3 pic that was showed with rage next to it

this is vanilla doom 3 ultra

Yes but i assumed that due to the cost of a hydra board that he wouldn't have one

through normal means no. you would need a third party hack to allow cuda to work when you have an ATI card mixed with an Nvidia card. Originally the answer would have been yes but Nvidia stuck it to all the mixed card users and locked out cuda when you have an ATI card installed

From a balance standpoint it would be foolish to put that much ram on a card that has insufficient rendering power and vice versa. I only buy cards that are in almost perfect balance with its rendering capabilities as well as its memory capacity and bandwidth. An imbalanced card just has wasted...

I have been thinking about the posts I've made and the points that i made in them, however i was overlooking 1 factor that consoles do not have that PCs do have and that is the drivers. I know i was stating that consoles do not use APIs, well to be blunt i may have exaggerated that statement a...

We are again forgetting that PC GPUs cant be directly compared to a console GPU of the same generation. As stated earlier in the thread, the overhead of the DX API used in windows is really large compared to a console, roughly 5 times higher. So even if they did use a GPU that is a bit faster...

E-CYCLE it!

well for starters Nvidia has tried there hardest to disable anything cuda based if you have any ATI Cards in your system. the Physx system is indeed cuda in nature, so for the sake of testing all possible senarios, just uninstall the ATi card and see if that solves it. it will also mean that...

yeah, these are unusual circumstances. i also run a GTX260SC EVGA but i never get any hotter than 69c at the same settings. i also have an air compressor that i use monthly on my system to blowout all the dust. my fan also only runs at 70% manual setting. the 285 has had alot of reports of being...

@lloose: Your right it doesn't work like that, consoles don't even use DirectX. All DirectX is, is a communication system that allows hardware to communicate with other hardware and software. consoles use only what the GPU they are using has. As the link in my previous post states its called...

they have a working prototype already? hmm this might mean a 2012 release

It was the N64 that got RE2 in 1999, in 2001 the GameCube received a Remake of RE1, as well as a new IP in RE0 which was exclusive to the GameCube but was originally promised for the N64 in 2000, they cancelled that plan and just focused on the GameCube. In terms of market dominance I can't...

because corsair is all i have ever used in the last 6 years or so. I forget how long just know they were my first and only brand.

because my old GPU is getting behind the times and needs some replacing.

i can see what you mean. ATI doesn't exactly have the best bandwidth with their products, and using more than 2 GPUs can quickly eat away at the that. Nvidia scales better because they have massive amount of bandwidth with their nf200 chipset, but i don't know what ATI uses for their PCI-E...
