Has anyone here built using an apu? I've done all kinds of crazy builds but non ever for any specific budget so I've yet to delve into the apu market. With the emergence of htpc and for builds requiring a small footprint it seems an apu does a good job. I realize anything better than I3 will...

Giana Sisters: Twisted Dreams - So far this is an awesome platformer with immersive graphics, an interesting control scheme, and great soundtrack. I am glad the game is fairly forgiving on deaths and quickly starts you at the most recent save point--I have missed more than a few jumps...

I think I'm going to treat myself for Christmas this year with some more PC components. This Steam sale has really gotten me more excited to play. My processor is currently an AMD 6000+ dual core that is clocked at 3.1 GHz. My GPU is an nVidia Quadro FX 580. This graphic card has held up...

When setting up graphics settings for your games, do you prefer graphics quality, or gaming performance? Would you rather have a high FPS count all the time, or take a framerate hit to bring up the eyecandy? Sure, people have good enough computers to do both, but if you could only pick one...

Around where I live,my brother and some of my friends are always dumping on the "Wii" because the graphics aren't as good as the other 2 systems.They're "Graphics Junkies".Personally I enjoy far more aspects in a game besides graphics. We've all been gamers for a long time,I'm sure that some of...

I will have to post more on this topic later, but I have been considering if I need to upgrade cooling on my 8800GT card. I have an XFX brand nvidia 8800GT, xt (extreme) version. This version is overclocked from the 600 core and 1900 mhz memory clocks to 640 mhz core and 1950 mhz DDR3 memory...

Post up your favorite games that have came out this generation and why you love them! Call of Duty 2- while not exactly a huge improvement over last generation in graphics, it was a very fun game with great multiplayer that really got me hooked on the 360. Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter- The...

For Christmas I got an HP laptop with 3GB RAM, 250GB HDD, 15.4'' High Definition screen, and an AMD Turion X2 64 processor. I can finally run some decent games! Does it sound like a good laptop to you guys?
