    Do 4K TV's run at 1440 and 1080 for gaming?

    When I had my first 1080 TV, it would support 720 and 480 based on what I plugged in, and it still made everything look way more awesome on my previous TVs. I understand native resolution means the maximum resolution, i.e. the resolution is was meant to be used in, but I often hear people say...

    Born in the USA: 22 Technologies Made In America

    (I have a LG LM670T and for as long as I know, I had zero problems with it.) Almost everything I own is from Samsung: Laptop, Tablet, 3DTV, Dual Monitors, Phone, Fridge, Washer/Dryer, etc. The rest is probably made in Asia also, like my iPad and built computer parts! Guess what, they are all...

    Born in the USA: 22 Technologies Made In America

    That was such a weird list of random American companies...I think there was a lot of product placement in there or you were just rooting for the small guys! Personally I would have added: Moog-For its Synthesizer Colt-For its Revolver Harley-For its Motorcycles Coke-For its Cola

    Is there anything better than these laptops for the price?

    Once i overlooked a lot of the benchmarks, it was obvious that a 560 Ti is the lowest you should go, and if you get a 2nd one, to have 560 Ti SLI, then your talking about power greater than 5970 or GTX 580! I mean were talking 10-20fps more, even against the Asus Ares!! I got Arkham with the...

    Is there anything better than these laptops for the price?

    I just got back from Bestbuy and they only had that G7, the 17" of that Asus. After trying them all, it was the only one that actually came with something else that wasn't Intel HD 3000. Except the 1700$+ MBP's. The best laptops on display were the 17" Asus, and the Mac Book Pros/Airs as far as...

    Is there anything better than these laptops for the price?

    I actually know that one of the G series from Asus is sold at Best Buy so i could actually just go and try it before i buy it, cause they all seem to be made the same way. I liked the 15 inch cause less power consumption, but the 17" usually have dual slot hd's which is something I am a big...

    Is there anything better than these laptops for the price?

    Well i got the money for something like that, I was just trying to figure out whether I should go as low as possible and just deal with the cheapness or spend some extra and truly get something worth using for the next 2-3 years. So I rather spend an extra $300-$500 now, then needing to...

    Cannot access data on usb stick

    If you plug your usb drive into a working usb slot, then it should show up in the start>computer>Devices with removable storage. This is assuming your working with windows 7. I would make sure the usb slot your using is working, and if it is, I would check control panel>hardware and...

    How to get password for emachines E627

    Sounds like a crappy Pawnshop. Depending on the pawnshop, it might be stolen. When i hocked my computer, they made me boot it up and checked everything. However, I did a loan on it, but either way they should have checked this, I would return it, and next time check the computer before you buy...

    IPad 2 as College Bound Laptop

    Well i had a laptop for the last couple of days, and I found it more convenient, to pop out my ipad and flip my cover around, then it was to bust out the laptop, mouse and mousepad. I am able to just hold the ipad in my hands, while the laptop can be held, but was more stationary on the table...
