    KOTOR II - is it any good?

    Going to chime in here and second what many others have said- the story is pretty sweet up until the ending, the gameplay is a little bit better, and the characters are just a little dull. There are some really, really cool moments in it (especially if lightsabers and jedi get you all jazzed up)...

    Opinions on HTPC case

    If the height of the case you initially linked isn't the big draw for you (personally, I hate half height pci cards, but I think I may be a little picky.), I urge you to check out the Antec 2480. I've been using one for my HTPC since about 2008 and it (and it's PSU) have held up wonderfully...

    Quiet/Silent HTPC Refresh on a shoestring Budget

    So here is the scenario- For the past 4 years or so, I've been using this rig as my trusty HTPC/Torrent box. It's hooked up to a 720p 32in LCD. It's workload is simple: XBMC, Winamp, Internet browsing via Chrome, uTorrent. CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ (Something to note, this is passively cooled...

    How high up the graphics card chain can I go?

    So here's my situation; I'm running an aging 939 system, with an Athlon 3200+, 2gbs of DDR400, and a 7600gt. I mostly play WoW, TF2, and some other steam games, but I'm planning on picking up and playing Spore heavily, not to mention some other games on the horizon. So my question is, I...

    Who wants to be my hero?

    Just a penny... if you can spare, you'll be rewarded (by me, not some afterlife-like reward =D)

    What are "must have" gamecube games?

    I enjoyed Skies of Arcadia: Legends. Its' a DC port with added content. Good RPG. I heard Tales of Symphonia was good too. I think you should get Resident Evil 4, aswell, its' just that good.

    Who wants to be my hero?

    I just won an Ebay auction, it was going great, I was the only bidder until the last 40 minutes, when some fool jaced the price up by 50 cents. Oh well, whatever, right? I end up winning, he was the only competing bid, whatever, but alas, I look at the total, and its' 34 cents over the amount...

    Maximum Pc's Dream Machine 2006

    I really believe MaxPC is paid off by Nvdia, as you'll often get those "The power of Three!" minimags with your issue, and they seem to constantly favor NV Cards in their tests. (Like there video card showdown where they crowned the 7900gtx a victor...)

    Review: Antec NSK2400

    Running this case as my main system now, and I just love it. I'm passively cooling a 3200+ Venice with an XP-90C with the fans on low. However, I don't have a dedicated graphics card in the rig, I'm using the 6150, as once I can get a gaming rig back together, this will be a dedicated HTPC...
