To be honest, after watching the Patriots loose tonight, I'm at a loss for words. I do have to clap for Miami though, since it's amazing they still have that kind of fight left in them with their record. You can't win them all I guess. DFI Lanparty 875-T LGA 775 Motherboard @ hardCOREware...

We actually had a decent amount of snow last night. I may not be good with a snowboard like Jay, but I've got some mean skills on a toboggan ;) Anyway, here's the latest in our news feed. Twinhan DTV MagicBox and VisionDTV Mini Ter @...

The news is crawling this weekend, but we have enough items for your afternoon fix. I've been on the search for a good heatsink and fan combo for the 3000+ I have recently ordered. Temperatures in my computer during the winter aren't a problem as I have a link from outside, going straight into...

I have recently ordered a Abit AV8, Athlon 64 3000+, and I can't wait until Mr. FedEx gets to my house. Next item on my list is a GeForce 6800 GT, but that's a long ways away. Enough about me though, let's get you some news. ATI CATALYST 4.12 Performance Analysis @ HEXUS.net "As far as...

I have come to a realization today... I collect way too much computer related junk. All I was looking for was a CD-Rom drive, so I go into my closet to see what I have. I pull out a few boxes, and find 6 CD-Rom drives, 5 USB cables, 4 sound cards, 3 hard drives, 2 PSUs , and a partridge in a...

I think today has been the coldest day yet in my neck of the woods(and I do mean woods). Usually two overclocked computers will do the job of warming my room, but not today. So here I sit, delivering you the news with multiple layers of clothing. I know Wednesday and Friday are the days for...

I was just looking through a box of old computer related things, and I found my Windows 3.11 disks. I was almost tempted to install them and take a trip down memory lane. I still remember using Windows 3.11 being cautious about putting Windows 95 on my computer. Those were the days :) ATi Radeon X800 XL Reviews HardOCP Tech Report Beyond3D...

I just received a ASUS A7N8X-X, and after looking around in the bios, it has some pretty decent features. After building a few systems using variants of the A7N8X, I've come to really like the brand. The NF7 series from ABit is also one of my top choices for Athlon XP systems. I'm going to...

Good afternoon guys and gals. Do you ever get excited over old hardware? I ordered a Radeon 9600 Pro the other day for a friend, and for some reason, I'm excited just to play around with it. Maybe it's because I've never had the opportunity to examine one before, or maybe it's because I know...

Well I finally got some much needed cleaning done today. Of course my lungs are now filled with dust and whatever else grows in the corners of my room, but that works out great for you since it gives me time to post the news. I've got to go fill out a couple more job applications, so enough...

Well folks, once again I've been stuck in the house all day since the snow/sleet mix is still coming down. Oh well, more time to play Metroid I guess. Well I've run out of things to say now as I'm getting fairly tired... you'd think being...

Earlier today I was shopping on E-Bay for a budget card for my friend... 9500 Pros going for around $70! I don't know, I was going to get my next card(6800 GT) from retail, probably Newegg, but E-Bay is just to good to pass up. Yeah...

Well I didn't wake up to snow like Jay, but there's a nice coating of it now. I'm stuck in the house until the plows can clear things up, but it's not so bad since I picked up Metroid Prime 2 yesterday... for anyone who hasn't played it...

X-Mas is 21 days away, and I still haven't done any shopping. Given I only have a few people to get things for, it's always good to get it done early. It's another odd winter in my neck of the woods... four days into December, and there's no snow on the ground, when last year we had plenty...
