    Firingsquad hoses Halo2

    Is it a true pc gamer's perspective? I think so, but I've played a game quite a bit, and though the single player campaign is confusing as hell, the multiplayer is great. http://www.firingsquad.com/gam...alo_2_review/page5.asp

    WinXP SP2....I'm converted.

    XP seems to be very stable, my 3dmark scores jumped about 75 points. i like the hyperthreading (which 2000 didn't support). And I'm impressed with WMP10. its just as fast and easy to use as 2000. lastly, its easier than 2000 to remove recycle bin from desktop!

    ATI owns pixel shaders, nVidia owns heavy texturing

    X-bit article well, this game at least, isn't gonna make you upgrade... HL2 might be another story. PS 3.0 may put nVidia ahead...

    overclocked Abit i865PE or nonoverclocked Dell i875P?

    I snagged a Dell PE400SC for 150.00 on friday. The plan was to take the cpu and hardrive out and put it in my ABit IS7-E2. Now I found out that the Dell uses a Canterwood 875P. DARN! If I leave the cpu in the Dell, I can't overclock though. What's the best solution?
