    Woohoo my HD-DVD drive 360 add on has just turned up from gameplay!

    ^doubt they. If bluray takes off they will just create an addon blu ray drive though more than likely. But the PS3 launch was not too successful in the States. Both the 360 and wii are outselling it. If it does not gain major support in the US it will flop and likely take blu ray with it.

    do torrents always take this long?

    For those of you with dodgy ISP's turn encryption on. It will let you speak to clients who had it enabled thus speeding up downloads, it also changes the way your isp sees your downloads and thus they cant limit it. Hence faster downloads. You want to pick RC4 encryption if you can and keep...

    do torrents always take this long?

    If you have your upload quite high depending on your connection you will notice downloads suffer as well. i keep mine set to 20 - 25kb/s and it'll max my download out. But i also use a private torrent group. If you can though enable encryption. This should speed up your downloads if your isp is...

    New cars Test Drive

    The skyline has been in it since the game was released as a free download. Seems a bit odd adding it to a pack.

    Best torrent site for music??

    Oink.me.uk is good as well but you need to know someone with an invite. Unfortunately I dont have any.

    PS3 1080p, will it still be good on a lesser HD tv?

    Also got to keep in mind not all games support 1080P so a lot will default to 720P.

    i cant find a decent case

    ^ ive got one of them going unused But its not really suitable for an HTPC cant really fit in in with the dvd player. And the lian li one even if you found it would likely be very expensive all there cases are. But if you want a specific case get in touch with someone who stocks lian li cases...

    Hard drive disposal

    You know you could have just done a low level format and then not had to go through the trouble. typical formats are high level. Low level will completely wipe the drive and write zeros to it basically making it the same as when it came out the factory.

    Speed on speedo or road pilot, witch is most accurate??

    Drive a C4. Its spot on. Not sure if the digital dials make any difference but at 75mph on sat nav my speedo was flicking between 74 and 75.

    Jap Ps3

    The PS3 is late been delayed so many times cause of the cpu they use they cant get decent yields with it. Why one of the cores is disabled to increase yields yet its still a pain in the arse to make.

    Jap Ps3

    Quite cool but have to say not jealous. The system is gonna need a fair few updates yet and Sony have realised this since releasing it. And I just dont trust brand new hardware from Sony there new systems have a habit of dying or parts of them failing. And the online features are crap. Link...

    an honest ps3 review

    Mix that with the fact theres really not much between them performance wise and the 360 is capable of doing better graphics on a system thats cheaper not looking great for Sony. Plus the 360 is likely to take a price cut in a few months as well.

    graphics card "no signal" on monitor

    Not got a PCI-E style connector on the card has it? Should be a small black section in 2 lots of 3 pins. If so you need a plug in there to give the card power. technically does not require it but if its provided sometimes its needed. Otherwise make sure you have monitor plugged into the...

    PS3 vs. X360

    Most early issues have been fixed in later newer systems. Always the same with first revision hardware. PS2 was not exactly perfect wen it launched neither was the PSX. No consoles ever are they all have problems most of the time. Same with new cars you by a brand new car thats only been on...

    Question on mp3 quality and burning CDs!

    Question on mp3 quality and burning CDs!

    What i mean by better is that the 320kbps has the ability to be better than cd quality. just creates a larger file size without actually adding anything to it. You wont hear a quality difference over 256kbps. The original source and the encoder makes more impact on the sound compared to bit...

    Question on mp3 quality and burning CDs!

    320kbps is a bit overkill it is actually higher than CD quality as well. 256kbps is actually cd quality. Anymore is just making filesizes bigger for no gain in quality typically. But a lot of it depends on the CD as well some cd's use crap compression techniques. But in all honesty ripping from...

    PS3 vs. X360

    The 360 uses an R500 generation ATI chipset which is DX9 based. Not DX10 based. The 360 still uses a version of windows 2003 server underneath it all. And still uses drivers loading into that OS. its just much smaller than the average PC OS as it has to do less. Also not sure how much you know...

    Agree mouse is much better for FPS gaming anyone who says differently should go 1 v 1 with a half decent gamer on a mouse they will get creamed. Just cant react fact enough with a pad and its not as accurate.
