At the end of the day, whatever app you use, its the encoding that will get you. Check your CPU usage when you do it, if its maxing out, then there isnt an app that will give you a large performance boost. Yeah that's what I thought, tis cr*p... Are...  [Read More]

Sooo once I've encoded it to the proper DVD format, how do I break it down to the right way to get it playing on a DVD player? Nero creates menus automatically and resizes the files if they're too big for a DVD disc...I'm just wondering, could I sav...  [Read More]

I'll take it with a jar of salt just now... It disturbs me that it's just for the 360 though (if the rumor has any truth to it), but then like they say, EA likes to go as multi-platform as possible, I just hope the port to PC doesn't suck and instea...  [Read More]

The specs of that 9600 look sexy for a mid-range card though, if it performs as well as it should, and its got the right price, the HD3850 might start to break a sweat :p I'll jump on your nVidia 9-series bandwagon Char ;) GeForce 9800 GX2 pics lea...  [Read More]

I wouldnt even worry abou that too much negsun...upgrading a GPU is where gamers are going to see the most benefit atm. A 3850 or 8800GT will give them performance jumps beyond staying with with a lower end card and changing CPU from x2 ro x4 alone,...  [Read More]
