Asus is a very solid brand. Asus externally and internally is just a better bang for your buck then any of those "main brand" companies out there that you think are good (dell, hp, etc...). The truth is, Asus actually makes there laptops in their own factory, everything from the ground up. A lot...

I am stuck between a few asus ones. http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16834220343 http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16834220338 I like that the 14" is smaller and more portable, but I don't know to much about mobile graphic cards and if the 9600 nvidia or the 3650...

Well, i've looked around at some Asus laptops, Sager, Alienware, and a few others. The Asus ones seem to be the best bang for the buck, but im just trying to see what else is out there.

I just ordered my new parts for my new PC, Core 2 Duo E6750, 8800GTS, 2GB DDR2, its gonna be very nice (and the price wasn't to bad either). I have not built a PC since the P4 Prescott days (my current build is a p4 2.8ghz prescott). I noticed that the E6750 has 64 bit capabilities and I was...

Does front side bus matter? I was talking with a few people and they told me that FSB does not matter, im having a hard time believing this. Because i've heard of the CPU choking a high end video card because of front side bus, but im not really sure if this is true or not either. Can you please...

My current PC build is a P4 with a 6600GT AGP card in it. I really want to replace it, especially with DX10 games coming out and even in games like BF2 and such it can tend to be a bit sluggish sometimes. I have the budget of $600 + shipping. Nothing more. I am trying to piece together a...

Because of what I do, I move around a lot. Every week im out of my house but I still have that desire to game since I still have off time. I am looking for a gaming laptop, however with the budget of $1600, no more. I am not sure what to get, but it needs lots of memory and a good graphics card...

the lan light comes up, I also took at the CPU and it looked fine, I started it up real quick and then turned it off with my finger on the cpu to see if it would heat up and it does (yea yea I can burn my hand, I weld so im not afraid of a little heat). I am thinking maybe it is the mother...

I have recently just started to get these problems, ever since like october when I updated my drivers from nvidia.com. Everytime I go into a game, after a while or a map change everything gets all pixelated and everything is just wierd. I see images stretched out all over the place and giant...

How about hypothetically you have a war of seeing in there.
