Indie games have had so far the best soundtracks I've ever heard: By far, my favorite one is from Transistor: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zA1jRmAYfU The songs themselves are all amazing and they also have different versions (instrumental, hummed and with voice) due to gameplay/story reasons. I ...
I don't know if this is right section to post this, but I believe that the people in this sub-forum would be the most likely to know the answer to my question. I'm sorry if I shouldn't have posted this here. My part time job is fixing people's computers. Most of them require OS reinstalls and I can'...
I need a new mouse for my laptop. I'll post my requirements in a list so that they'll be easier to read and understand: 1) Above all, it needs to be durable. I'll be tossing it in and out of my bag almost every day. I'm pretty careful with my gadgets, but I don't want it to break after a year of usa...
1) I hope you're gaming at 4k or triple-monitor resolutions if you're thinking about TWO GTX 980s Maybe he wants to game at high settings while running a 1440p. He will certainly need them to do that on a 1440p, 144Hz monitor... But, yeah, other than that or 4k or triple-monitor it would be a waste...
I want to get a new couple of cards for my config and after studying the market I've reduced the list to these two contenders: Asus GTX 980 Matrix: +better looking +backplate and support bracket - almost 150$ more expensive around here, so it would be 300$ more that I could spend on something else M...
The opinions are pretty even everywhere I ask. People seem to be fond of both of them. I guess I'll get the best deal I find, regardless of branding. @LoneWolf15: I don't care much for the trackpad, since I only use the trackpoint. I've also tried the keyboards on all the bigger brothers (T420, T430...
I need to buy a laptop to take with me to the university, which will be mostly used for simple coding and electronics simulation software. Thus it doesn't need to be very powerful, but it needs to be fairly portable, cheap and very sturdy. The rubber nubbin mouse is also a must since I hate touchpad...
The play/pause trick seems to work occasionally . But it's pretty weird. I didn't install anything in the last week or so and I'm using a desktop. My peripherals are a gen 1 Razer blackwidow (which is not detected by razer synapse any more) and a Steelseries Sensei.
When I turn a youtube video in fullscreen mode in chrome, the progress and status bar don't go away, even though I don't touch my mouse and keyboard. I've tried disabling all of my extensions, reinstalling and even a freshly compiled version of chromium. But the issue is still there. Firefox works f...
OK, wait... I'm confused now. The system became unstable when you upgraded the CPU, but you think the *RAM* is the culprit? Am I missing something (or misunderstanding something you wrote) here? They started acting strange at roughly the same time so indeed the CPU has been the prime suspect. But i...
3) The old DIMMs fill the Memtest86 log with errors, even when only one of them is present. So two sticks died at the same time? That still makes me think something else killed them... The system started BSODing a few months ago when I upgraded my E8400 to the current Xeon. This is pretty much a ha...
Indeed the RAM kit has a lifetime warranty. However, I didn't know until today that I could send them back to the retailer from where I bought it. Good thing I kept the receipt. When I contacted Corsair directly, they told me I need to ship it to the Netherlands by myself. I could have bought anothe...
Indeed it is pretty ancient, but to replace it, I would need a pretty high-end motherboard or the DGX. My headphones benefit from the integrated amplifier in a big way. I think I'll be fine with a lower end Z87 or Z97 board since most of them have a PCI slot.
Thanks guys for your answers: @just brew it! : I'm pretty sure it's just the RAM. I tested the current kit with memtest86 and it fills the log with errors. I also replaced it with an even older 1gb kit that I had laying around and it seemed to work fine. But I can't live with just a gig of RAM. @Jus...
So, my trusty old Corsair 4gig DDR2 kit died and replacing it will be expensive for my build so I'm not sure it is worth it. Here is my current config: - Intel Xeon E5440 /w Scythe Kama Angle cooler on it - MSI P35 Neo2-FR - obviously no RAM - Nvidia GTX 470 - Samsung 830 256gb SSD and a couple of H...
You also must be willing to troubleshoot shell and task instabilities, be on guard against the huge numbers of malware infesting the ceosystem, and be ready to find substitutes for the quirky comms modules which non-Nexus droids come with.. Say what? Give me one example of textbook definition malwa...
@jbi!: Well, since I started using the 1030l, I noticed that twitch moves are much easier to do than on a standard cloth pad, which is ideal for my grip/scenario. However, if all the hard pads scratch as easily as the 1030L I think I'll have no choice but to get a nice cloth pad. @JohnC: The Alumic ...
I'm currently using a SS Sensei on a Func 1030L, but the fine surface scratches very easily and the rough one causes weird issues to the sensor since I use very high dpi (4k dpi usually) and cloth pads aren't really my cup of tea any more. I heard the 4HD would be an ideal choice. Can anyone provide...
I noticed that too. I guess it's both a good and a bad thing. Good, because it means we don't need them as much for decent overclocks and bad because the OEM dropped their BoM costs w/o dropping the final prices.
I'm not going to spend another hundred bucks on another sound card just because this one doesn't work with my friggin mouse. I don't even think it's Asus's fault here since I'm not the only one with this issue.
Has anybody managed to successfuly get the MS-3 to work reliably on Win8? I got a dual-boot of Win7 and Win8 working yesterday and it seems it works fine with an absolutely clean install, but as soon as I put some of my drivers windows just stops detecting it. I disabled driver signature enforcement...
