Guys. This is the Ferrari of CPU's. This thing is set to be an absolute BEAST. I just wonder what this thing will cost. I bet nowhere under R12,000. http://www.tomshardware.com/news/intel-gulftown-westmere-core-i7,9271.html YIKES.

I read up on the Fermi line of Nvidia cards coming up and I have to say I'm very excited about the product. I'd really like to see them in action for real. What I also read is that Nvidia are planning, along with the Fermi launch, multiple monitor support for the G200 series cards as well as for...

So living in the West Rand seems to be more dangerous by the day these days. Our complex, where we were unfortunate enough to buy, has had a very high burglary/crime rate in the past year. That prompted me to do all sorts of things like installing my own electric fence, burglar bars on all the...

Hi all, To those of you who use BTGAMES as much as I do, to the extent where I believe I should be part of their monthly board-meetings as a major share-holder by this time, I've noticed something a bit odd with Assassins Creed 2. I've pre-ordered the Black Edition of this game for the PC when...

Hi guys/gals, My PS3 (80GB version NON-slimline) works like a charm, but no matter how hard or LITTLE it works, after a few minutes of it being switched on the fan comes on full blast and makes one helluva racket. What's the fan like on your PS3 console? My console stands vertically and is on...

For those of you who have been looking forward to playing a God of War 3 Demo when buying District 9 on Blu-Ray will be dissappointed to know that the demo is NOT on the disc here in South Africa. I personally blame apartheid, bloed-rivier, and that time one of our white great grandparents...

Forza fans probably know this already, but the Holiday Car Pack is available for download on XBOX Live for 400 MS Points! You get 10 seriously cool cars including the brand-spanking-new Ferrari 458 Italia. It doesn't get much better than this folks. 10 top-notch cars for 400 MS Points, bargain...

Since it's been made clear that hosting a game of MW2 locally uses 200MB/hour, I was wondering what kind of cap usage normal XBOX 360 games use per hour? Games like for example: Forza 3?

Please post your XBOX Live gamertags on here if you want people to add you onto their friends list! mine is : UBSNEOUK Games I currently play: Forza 3 Gears of War 2 Street Fighter 4

I've been playing around with the idea of moving to a XBOX Live Gold account so that I can play online a bit more with some friends. Is the online LIVE culture in South Africa big enough to justify the R600 expense? Also, I'm on a 4mb shaped ADSL line, will I have decent latencies or are they...

So is anyone else as excited as I am about this game? I'm playing the first one again to refresh myself a bit on how awesome this game is! :)

So I'm starting up this game again. I didn't get TOO far the first time but I've downloaded a couple of patches, upgraded it to the enhanced edition and also downloaded patch 1.5 that fixes the graphics and removes the DRM. What did you guys think of this game?

Okay, so this past weekend I went out and bought myself a copy of the latest Need for Speed: Shift. Now, like most Need for Speed fans I was hesitant to buy this latest title, but, after reading some reviews on this game it was clear things were back on track (hehehe) for the NFS franchise, and...

As the title suggests; isn't Borderlands a LOT like Fallout 3? I looked at the Borderlands review and was immediately reminded of Fallout 3?

Where da HECK can I get one of these? PC Format reviewed this awesome LCD monitor a few months ago but I cannot find any place in SA that has this monitor for sale :(

Hi All, I thought I would post this to inform anyone wanting to buy Windows 7 off the shelf instead of ordering it online (like you should be doing). I went to Makro to check if they had Windows 7 Ultimate because at the time Take 2 was out of stock and Incredible Connection's price on Windows...

I just took the plunge and bought Windows 7 Ultimate (retail) from Take 2. It seems copies at the local shops are rediculously over-priced, so I suggest if you're still going to buy a copy of the new OS, make use of online purchasing instead.

I checked it out and it looks fantastic! Finally a Ratchet and Clank game that showcases the PS3 capabilities a bit. I played tools of destruction about half way in because I was terribly let down by the dated graphics engine they used. I'm glad to say that it looks to have changed and the...

That's right. The SA Government is sueing Micronsoft for using the name "Natal" in one of it's projects. According to reports, this name is a blatant insult to Souf Africans and just another means used by White Extremist groups to undermine the koi-san tribe for having first invented motion...

I've canceled my XBOX360 Prestige Edition. Not even the BEST night vision goggles or bundled toys can make this game worth while. What a rip-off. Post here if you've canceled your pre-order.
