I bought the HTC Vive back in October, I liked it, but returned it within days as I realized there were very few games in the space genre that were complete titles like Lone Echo. (I just noticed the Vive is now 500$ on amazon, a big price drop). I just found out you can use Windows VR devices...

I re-cycled my old laptop in a way by using it as a wifi card for my desktop with ad-hoc. Is there anyway I can over my desktop access my laptop's bluetooth or should I just get a 10$ bluetooth adapter usb-dongle?

What processor you need depends on what you are going to do as projects and assignments can vary. For example, I have run audacity, (a sound editing application) on a 4GB RAM laptop with an Intel Atom processor (and I never had lag). If you just need to use applications like Google Chrome and...

I have sticky alt key on an Acer Aspire R13 372T laptop, this leads me to ask, in the past i have pulled out keys and put them back in, is this true for every laptop? Are there laptops in which if you pry out a key you can't put it back in and break it? Thanks!

I have a laptop with an Intel Core i5 6200U, with Intel HD 520 graphics, and so I am running GPU-Z just so I can monitor its clock-speed. Acer has their custom Intel drivers on my laptop so I do not know if that's whats causing a problem. Intel says the graphics should run at 300MHz to...

BEFORE YOU READ: I did this on Windows 10 with an Intel Core i5 6200u (Intel HD 520 graphics) laptop with fan assisted air cooling. I do not recommend completing some of these steps. Step 1 is obvious, I think Step 7, (the last step), helped the most. Step 2 requires that you have a intel...

I am not sure if Newegg means that if its DOA you can return it within thirty days or if its unopened. If you get a laptop from Newegg, turn it on, and do not like it, I am guessing you are stuck with it right? Thanks.

For me, I would rather get a laptop that has thunderbolt 3 than built in discrete graphics, for the possibility of future expansion. However, while thunderbolt (3) is finally becoming more and more popular on laptops and even convertibles, the graphic docks are taking much longer to come out...

Hi, Does anyone know how solid of the processor is the dual core i5 6200u with Intel HD 520? So I found reviews of intel 520 but not specifically of the processor itself. I might be doing Kerbal Space Program, CS-GO, and H1Z1. The devices allows for an external graphics dock, so that wont be...

I am getting a laptop for school but I also am looking something that's powerful to get me through the summer. I write essays, stream videos, and put the maximum stress of 720p medium settings on H1Z1 on a computer. So my first option would be to get a desktop for 450, and then an absolute...

Every review I can find for the Dell Venue 5855 says it has thunderbolt 3. To me, it looks like a standard USB-C, (also has a Display Port logo.) But from my experience, I know Display Port does not include thunderbolt 3. Does anyone know for a fact if it has thunderbolt or not? Thanks!
