    Left 4 Dead 2 versus Left 4 Dead?

    I play L4D2 more than L4D. There are more people to play with and plenty of great custom maps. There is some crossover with the first group of survivors if that matters at all to you. They even added the No Mercy campaign for free and soon their going to add in Dead Air. Yes imo you should...

    Confession of an XP user.

    I don't upgrade because I fear vista/win7 will deactivate randomly. I'm seriously considering buying win7 but am having trouble getting past my fear of deactivation. Justified or No?

    Shut-offs and Overclocking Failures

    Alright, I ran a CPU stress test all night without errors while overclocked. Could it really be windows considering it runs fine when not overclocked?

    Shut-offs and Overclocking Failures

    I'm not overly worried, I just want to make sure its the cpu and not something else entirely, besides I could use an upgrade anyway. Hold on I've got an idea, I'll run prime 95 from the boot disk while overclocked. Sorry I'm just not that confident in my ability's, I confirmation that I'm...

    Shut-offs and Overclocking Failures

    Alright so about a week ago I began suffering seemingly random shut-offs (Cut to black, no sound, lights on, fans running.). I cleaned out the case hoping the issue was caused by excess dust and updated the bios. The shut-offs have stopped but the problem now is that I cant load windows while...

    Completely Random Power Downs + Restarts

    Is your operating system going through the restart procedure or is it just cutting to black?

    Anyone want FREE games??

    If these are abandonware then why not just get them someplace else without the 100mb limit?

    OK for fan cable to come into contact with HS?

    Buy some zip-ties, their cheap and will do great things. Cable management is one of the simplest things you can do to improve the inside of the cases airflow and appearance.

    S1283 & Super Lanboy - Oh noes?

    Try it out, if you don't get a noticeably difference over the stock cooler then that may be the problem.

    Cool & Quite Question

    Sorry if this should be in Motherboards. I was wondering if you could use cool & quite to extend the lifespan of an overclocked CPU. Thanks

    Low profile card for Second Life

    I have played it on an HD 4870, I see very little change in fps changing between max and min settings. The fps remain low regardless of what I do (15-20), but the game is playable at very low fps so its not an issue. An 8400GS should work fine.
