    Overheating crossfire Setup 280X

    Hi guys, I am having some issues with heat on my new 280x's.

I have picked up...

    Facebook and twitter links on the front page?

    Not that I have anything against social networking sites, but the current form on the front page looks a bit ridiculous. For example when I just loaded up the front page those links caught my attention instead of the article... Maybe a touch up on the color scheme would help, not really sure...

    I was thinking about buying a new android handset(never owned one), mostly the galaxy S. One thing I have read about Samsung, and others, is that they do not update their handsets in a timely fashion(if at all). Does this include security updates for the operating system, or is that just...

    I got the card this week and really didn't notice the hissing it makes until recently when I ran Humus new Volume decals demo. It doesnt make to much hissing in the two other games I have played, but I am worried it will get as bad as the volume decals demo. Whats really odd is when I run...
