Name a game you own but just never go into

It'd be easier to list the games I have gotten into. Between Steam, Blizzard, Uplay, and Origin I have well over 250 PC games (226 in steam alone). How many have I played for more than a few hours? less than 10% safe to say. I own but have still yet to get into any of the Metro/Assassin's...

Airport Extreme as Extender

So I have an Airport Extreme 4th gen, an Airport Extreme 5th gen, and an Airport Express 802.11n 1st Gen. I'd like to use the 4th gen to extend the wireless that my 5th gen is creating from the downstairs living room. Doing some reading, it looks like it's strongly recommended to extend it...

A tangled mess of OS's

Win 7 came with the laptop and I upgraded it to Win 8 pro (with the $15 offer that MS had at the time). Does that change anything?

A tangled mess of OS's

I've got an HTPC w/ Win 7 on it and a laptop that was upgraded to Win 8 pro. I'm also building a new gaming pc, and as I spend too much on it, I cringe at the cost of adding an OEM windows license. So what I'd like to do is: Buy a dell 660s w/ Win 8 to replace my current HTPC (much...

Timing of 780ti & Nvidia Holiday Bundle

I cringe at spending more than $550 as well, but with my planned SFF 1440p build I feel like I need both more than 2GB of VRAM and a blower style cooler to push hot air out of the case. Both factors make me lean towards the GTX 780, but a price drop below $600 would make me feel a lot better...

Timing of 780ti & Nvidia Holiday Bundle

I guess what I'm selfishly asking is: is it wishful thinking to expect both a price cut to the 770/780 AND being able to take advantage of the holiday bundle (which ends before December) at the same time? Or is that actually the general expectation of what's going to happen?

Timing of 780ti & Nvidia Holiday Bundle

So the holiday bundle is from 10/28-->11/26. The 780ti is said to be available "mid-november". It could reasonably asked, why would you announce a holiday bundle but make people wait 2 weeks to take advantage of it (basically guaranteeing that sales are then depressed for those 2 weeks)? The...

Nvidia have announced GeForce GTX Holiday Bundle

I'm confused. Is this based off of personal use? I can't recall reading anything negative about the ergonomics in any review. I fully intend on buying one for $200; beats the hell out of trying to game with a laptop on the couch.

videocardzFirst AMD Radeon R9 290X 1080p performance review

I care, i'm building a SFF system that can only fit a 450W PSU, so even an extra 30W from the 290x might knock it out of contention for me.
