NVIDIA’s Hawaii-bound GeForce GTX 780 Ti Released
Hot on the heels of AMD’s Radeon R9 290 launch earlier this week comes NVIDIA with the world’s new fastest graphics card: GeForce GTX 780 Ti. Without question, this is a bit of an odd release, and one that seems to exist only because of AMD’s recent launches. However, its release has…..

AMD’s Radeon R9 290 Launched, Causes R9 290X to Reevaluate its Life
When AMD released its Radeon R9 290X a couple of weeks ago, the general consensus was that it was a bit faster than NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 780, but cheaper. This is of course a key ingredient that goes into the purchasing decision of consumers everywhere, and it’s something that caused NVIDIA to…..
GOG.com Wants to Sell You Three Games for $5, Then Donate That $5 to Charity
Let’s start off with some math, shall we? Cheap games + your butt in front of a monitor = helping others. If that does not compute, you should head on over to GOG.com for a lesson, sucka! GOG currently has a promotion running where you pick 3 or more games, pay…..
Steam Machine Heats Up Console Wars to Thermonuclear
Valve, the world’s most successful online retailer of PC games, has made no secret of its desire to participate in the console wars and encroach upon hitherto unexplored territory.

HGST Ships First Helium-filled Hard Drive, Weighs in at 6TB
Believe it or not: Helium-filled hard drives are here. If that technology sounds familiar, it might be because we talked a bit about it last fall, after HGST made its initial announcement. I admit that at that time, though, I didn’t expect to see shipping products a mere year later – yet,…..
Latest Steam Patch Improves Download Manager, But is it Enough?
Valve has this week rolled-out a long-overdue update to the download manager in Steam, and while it’s great to see some work being done, I can’t help but feel like this needs to be the start of even more changes down the road. But before getting into those, let’s tackle what’s been…..

Feeling Lonely? Trilobyte Games Announces The 7th Guest 3: The Collector
Where the earliest CD-ROM based games are concerned, Cyan’s Myst is often cited as the highlight. Around our house, though, Myst couldn’t keep our attention; instead, our minds belonged to Trilobyte’s The 7th Guest. It offered an interesting environment to traverse – almost making it feel like we were inside of a…..
The Ultimate Gaming Monitor? Eizo’s FG2421 Boasts 240Hz Refresh, 5000:1 Contrast
If in the market for a new gaming monitor, Eizo’s latest is just begging to be considered. At the forefront, the FORIS FG2421 boasts a 240Hz refresh rate – not the world’s first, but it is the first on a gaming-specific monitor that I’ve been able to find. Past that, the implementation…..

Lamptron’s CM615 Touchscreen Fan Controller Can Be Adjusted Through the Web
Precise fan speed control via manual voltage regulation mechanisms is as old and moldy as last month’s uneaten BLT.

The CM615 is, on the one hand, a conventional fan controller.…..

Close to Extinction: Optical Disk Drives on Macs; PCs Soon to Follow?
When Apple began offering the latest version of OS X on flash drives back in 2011, it became clear that as far as it was concerned, optical disk drives couldn’t die off fast enough. At that time, I was talking to a friend who was an early MacBook Air adopter, and he…..
NVIDIA’s ShadowPlay Has Arrived: Use that GeForce Card to Record Your Games
Sometimes, anticipated products seem to take too long to get here. Other times, there’s no other word to use but “forever”.

Logitech G602 Wireless Gaming Mouse Review
