Because it would take at least 60 amps to power it?:xp: Meh, no thanks. Nvidia has won this round. Back to the drawing board, ATI.:) True, I hope they can catch up with the R700 core, which is rumoured to be released in Q1 of 2008, and if that's the...  [Read More]

Clicky (http://www.custompc.co.uk/news/601260/sapphire-launches-dual-radeon-card.html) I disagree with the following though: "but we haven’t seen a card with two ATi chips since the Rage Fury Maxx in 1999." Erm, what do you call this (h...  [Read More]

All (or most) good games have them: boss fights But which ones are your favorites, and why? I love: *Metal Gear Solid - All the bosses in MGS pwn, but Ocelot and Mantis do so in particular, very fun and different fights. *Devil May Cry - Nelo Ange...  [Read More]

Hmmm, good point stingerhs, and you're right, better now than later on... Is it difficult to fit a different PSU in a case? If no I'll just get a better one and replace it myself....  [Read More]

Good point stoffe, except that in that light, is it fair to make Vista out to be the next ME? Vista is expensive (even more so here in the UK believe you me!), and so is getting a decent system to run it on...But it was the exact same when WinXP was...  [Read More]

I say it's both. I wish they could have made Vista compatible with ALL videogames made before it, instead of having to download patches and other stuff for only SOME of the games to work. lolz then Vista's release would have been pushed back to about...  [Read More]

Gaming is not just about the future or what just was released though, really great games can have a significant lifespan. Some older classic games are still worth re-playing every now and then more than a decade after they were released. Being able t...  [Read More]
