    Where are we in the universe?

    If we look far enough into the universe, what we are looking at is essentially a time machine that help us see into the past, the early days when the universe was first created. This is so becuase light though fast still take a long time to travel to us. So some of the stuff we see is actually...

    Windows 64 bit edition? Good for gaming?

    Yes, 64 bit ran BF2 and HL2 smoother for me. I do not think the FPS is increased but for some reasons, the gamepleay is a lot smoother and itis noticeable. Also, I have an old audigy card in this system and I seriously think the 64 bit driver from Creative actually made the card soudn better...

    Creative... Its Almost April Guys...

    I have the impression that Creative has improved on their drivers support. They used to put up rather confusing updates and patches for the older line like SB Live series. I have owned from the AWE series right up to the latest X-Fi and I have no problems with the latest X-Fi. The thing that...

    Asus a8n-e..

    Just a question, did anyone of you achieve better overclocking as a result of chipset heatsink upgrade? or is the main reason for the upgrade purely due to sound/noise issue or failing fans?

    Why do most motherboard maker's website are slow as s**t?

    It is the same in SIngapore, accessing especially TW sites are extremely slow! quite a turn off when you need to download drivers or bios.

    XiFi soundcards

    I have my platinium hooked to Bose Lifestyle 2.1 and I love it :) I am thinking of going further, I want to be able to listen to good quality music on my Hi Fi (AMP + CD player + 2.0 speakers), how do I hook up to the Amp suitably? Make it a 2.0 output from X-Fi to amp or get a DTS 610 to...

    X-Fi users - what type of surround setup do you use for gaming?

    Hmmmm, CMSS 3D is definitely popular with headphones. I get much better gameplay experience with it and not to forget the ability to hear enemies from "accurate" directions is quite fantastic too in aiding performance. I haven;t really try it with 7.1 speakers, only 5.1 so far and I must say...

    iPod Video v Zen Vision M

    The Zen Vision:M's greatest aspect is probably the video output and screen brilliance. I checked out a friend's ZVM and another Ipod Video and found the latter to lose out alot in codec support and screen comparison, not to mention the video playback duration is somewhat lacking also. Unless...

    Audigy 2 ZS vs Audigy XFi Extreme

    According to this article here http://www.guru3d.com/newsitem.php?id=300 It seems PCIe is not so suitable for Audio cards afterall. Would a PCIe X-Fi have any noticeable difference or advantage in terms of performance? I am quite happy with my PCI version right now. Dang, maybe the mobos of...

    GAMING PC DONE!

    Are you on a budget? If not, shoot for Fatality or Elite Pro X-Fi soundcard, the lesser option without X-RAM like Etreme Music would do wonders for your gaming rig too. If you game with headphones, the onboard solution is denitely not going to make it man. Like Ghouler suggested, Audigy...

    Wow! Creative's new Audio Processor: X-Fi!!!!

    Yeah I like the headphone bit. The 3D panning effect has got be very useful for gaming in the dead of the night when I do not want to wake my partner! I am trying very hard to get him to set aside some money to upgrade to this card when it is out in the market. Another thing, I noticed from...

    Wow! Creative's new Audio Processor: X-Fi!!!!

    I'm going to order a sound card: M-Audio Revolution 5.1 versus Audigy 2 ZS!

    I did have to make a choice once and went for Audigy. I still play a lot of music and gaming and did on several occasions tried to compare sound playback differences with a mate's M audio system. we both used gigaworks and I honestly can't tell the difference. It is only after reading this...
