    Net Neutrality - A unifying cause?

    I'm going to call today’s Net Neutrality vote for what it is. It's all about power and the unyielding will to dominate our perception of reality. For decades TV and newspapers have represented where we get our information from. A handful of people framing our views, controlling the...

    XFX New Support Page

    My old account allowed me to log in, but all of my older "double lifetime" cards are no longer registered and their serial numbers are not recognized. Cant believe a tech company of XFX's size would release such a poor, clearly unfinished, "improved" product support page :rolleyes: Sent a...

    Help: Small school in need, No internet access over lan

    Thanks Cooky. I wont be able to verify until the morning, but im fairly certain I've covered this. Im remember DNS field only allowing you to enter one DNS address (no secondary). The default gateway I assume is the one assigned by the ISP correct?

    Opinion time: What is the "best value" in a CPU today?

    FX-6300. For $140 it's the best "bang for the buck" going on a new cpu and I have yet to hear of anyone not getting theirs overclocked to at least 4.5 (provided they have proper hardware and know what they are doing). Quite pleased with mine.

    i5 3570 + cheapo MB or FX 6300 + decent MB ?

    I have a FX-6300 overclocked to 4.6 at 1.42v. Under load (Prime 95) I barely break 40c with a 212 EVO. Fantastic chip for the money. No doubt a 3570 is faster, but outside of benchmarking and a few niche things you wont be able to tell the difference. Saved about $150 vs a similar featured...

    Richland ES now out in the wild.

    Steamroller is a new architecture. While it's been reported Steamroller will be AM3+ socket, how is this developer suppose to use the cpu without a bios update? No letter, no instructions, no bios update to make it work with his board, and no hint from AMD that Steamroller is this far along in...

    Now that NDA is over, how do you really feel about bulldozer ?

    Performance to $$$ ratio coupled with upgrade path and cpu demands of games and most apps on the market AMD has been competitive with Intel. Faster No, viable alternative yes. For me, it does matter who makes it. Intel has a LONG black stained history of vile business practices that dont sit...

    Now that NDA is over, how do you really feel about bulldozer ?

    Truly a sad day for AMD desktop fans. Interlagos makes a fine offering for the server market but Bulldozer does not competitively stand up to Sandy Bridge. It's not even in the same ballpark. I've been running AMD system builds exclusively since the release of the 5x86 150mhz cpu back in...

    Those who do not learn from History are doomed to repeat it

    I have watched a staggering number of documentaries spanning a multitude of different subjects in my 34 years but the one I just finished watching has got to be hands down the most important (non-spiritual) education I have received by a wide margin. I implore everyone to watch (see below) and...

    Best website to sell heavily modified cars?

    Agreed. You will almost always make more selling off the upgrade parts and then selling the car. By doing this, you also increase the buyers market as well, many people do not want a modified car no matter how nice it is. Your most likely sell for the car will be in the 350Z forums...

    LOL unions- shutting down France over pensions

    Exactally. I have a great deal of respect for the people of France. They enjoy some of the best standards of living in the world, and have done so for a long time. One of the primary reasons this is so, is because the French people stand up to their government. The people of France have not...
