    BF2142 Demo - Out 10/5 for Preorders

    Just snagged the Demo off of usenet/newsgroup. Downloading at 800k/sec sure beats anything else online. My thoughts: Why in the world would anyone play this? It's the most frusturating game, devoid of any fun. Maps are HUGE. It's a race to get to the vehicles is all this game is. My VERY...

    From the main page: "People running a version of Windows Vista that it believes is pirated will initially be denied access to some of the most anticipated Vista features. That includes Windows Aero, an improved graphics technology. If a legitimate copy is not bought within 30 days, the system...

Even though im using the center of the monitor only, and not the full size, I am going to get the SAME frame rate, because the card is outputting...

    Looking for a mouse pad that makes my mouse glide like it's on ice

    I want to order a sheet of that PTFE. Found a website that will sell it for $10 as a 12x12 sheet. Rock on! However, does anybody know if these work with laser mice? It looks like the teflon is a white color. Will a laser work off of a pure slick teflon mouse pad? Or how does one get it to work?

    Wolf King Timber Wolf FPS Keyboard - any good?

    For what its worth I am going to buy the Wolf king Warrior/Devour (the pad) when I upgrade. I have not tried it out yet though. But from my play style it looks the best. I guess it depends on the individual person. You might like one more than the others.

    One of your HD's is failing? Large enough power supply? Overheating causing a hard crash, which corrups your HD?

    CRT Whining noise?

    Generally it means its on its way to the grave. But thats not always the case, at work we used to have this one CRT that whined ALL the time. I would walk over, and *THWACK* its side. Really hard. After trying to ram my fist through its side, it would shutup for a while. I was trying to break...

    Best 24" gaming graphics card

    You never mentioned what monitor you have. If your monitor does not allow 1600x1200.. by that I mean it Stretches the image, and does not let it sit in the center of the screen with black bars around it, your ONLY choice is a Nvidia card. As ATI will stretch the resolution and not put black bars...

    What mousepad for mx518? Corepad magna? fUnc 1030 archtype?

    I have the func 1030. I liked the smooth side, but after about 8months to a year it got so smooth and polished it has no surface to grab on my laser mouse. Mouse jerks across screen. I now use the rough side with teflon tape under my mouse. The pad seems too small to me, I may switch with my...

    GeForce 7900GT or Radeon X1900XT? Convince Me. :D

    Depends on what games you want to play. Do you have a widescreen monitor? If you are going for power, get the ATI. If you want something that wont work like a space heater for your room, get the nvidia. I will be upgrading to a new system in a few months. And at the moment my only choice is...

    BF2142 ranked server question

    Maybe you guys who currently play BF2 can answer this. I have never touched a BF game. But I will have to try 2142 as there is nothing else on the market now to satisfy me. So, how do the upgrades work.. Do you have to be on a ranked server to have unlocks and pins/badges/medals/ribbons to...

    Help URGENT plz (Display Issues

    That screenshot looks 100% normal to me. Try swaping out a monitor and see if that fixes it. If you dont have like 4 or more in the house, just have a friend bring one over. Or take your PC to a friends house.

    Acer AL2423W 24" Review, Pics.

    I would rather run it at 1600x1200 than by forcing BF2 to do fake widescreen. BF2 does not support wide screen. what you are doing is still keeping the same FOV, you are effectively cutting off the top and bottom of your screen in order to get the whole thing to work. Are you able to run it...

    Acer AL2423W 24" Review, Pics.

    What video card do you have? I am seriously thinking about getting this monitor when I uprgrade in a month or 2. I hear nVidia scales nicely with drivers, and allows 1600x1200. But ATI does not do that, they force screen stretch. I am not positive on this but I think thats how it goes. I am...

    Can u play BF2 in widescreen??

    I would like to see the FOV change, and have them implement real WS support. Other FPS games do it. Why is dice so far behind? Fine, it offers a slight player advantage. So does a High speed gaming mouse, a specalized gaming keyboard, That super xi-fi creative surround sound, being closer...

    Acer AL2423W 24" Review, Pics.

    I don't think he is blowing it out of proportion at all. I am a gamer, just a casual gamer now though. And even the slightest lag, even 5 ms, is enough in most of my high end clan matches to determine the winner or the loser. I cant seem to understand why people are not raising more of a...

    Power consumptions charts

    So which is to be believed? That chart which states that the 7900 GTX draws 267watts at full load, or xbitlabs which shows a 84watt max load. Thats one hell of a difference.
