    I just stopped by Game Crazy after work and saw that they had this game for $39.99. This is a pretty good deal on a great game for the X360. This may be a YMMV, but there was a local ad here in Austin advertising the price.

    I just went to my local CompUSA store and found at 160gb Seagate Barracuda SATA hard drive for $149.99 - $70MIR. I thought this would be worth passing along since SATA drives of this size usually aren't this cheap.

    Sandra 2002 reference CPUs/Chipset

    Kinda dumb question but.... I've downloaded the most recent Sandra release and the "best" reference CPU option that I can get is SMT 2.66 p4 which my setup beats the crap out of. For memory the "best" option is the 850 chipset with PC1066 RAM, which again, my system beats by a large margin...

    Keep my AIW 9700pro or get a 5900 non-Ultra?

    I currently have a AIW 9700pro and I'm not really using all the capture features that it has. I'm also not a fan of how much f*in heat the thing puts out. I know the latest nVidia cards have massive heatsinks on them, but are they running as hot as the Radeons? I would think the huge...

    AIW Radeon 9700 Pro temp...

    i know there probably aren't many ways to get the exact temp of the chip, but i just got this card last night and noticed that the heatsink was EXTREMELY hot to the touch. i understand that this chip is going to produce heat, but i didn't think it would be this significant. anybody else...

    Hi all. Just installed Windows ME to try to fix a little problem I was having in SE. All Direct3D games seem to lock up. I've now tried UT, Rogue Spear and WWII Fighters and they don't run for more than 10 seconds. It seems that they lock up in the exact same place each time too. The...

    I just installed ME last night and tried installing some D3D games. It seems like they all freeze after a couple seconds of running. Weird thing is OpenGL games work perfectly. I tried putting my CLA2 back down to default clock speeds and putting my CPU back down to default clock and I still...
