Blizzard Announces Diablo 3 Patch 1.0.4
Blizzard has announced that patch 1.0.4 will be coming to Diablo 3 in the fourth week of August and has released some of what can be expected when it is released. Most of the changes are geared towards encouraging co-op play instead of solo play. However, no changes will be made that will be a detriment to those that wish to play solo. The first change is to remove the averaging of magic and gold find in co-op games, allowing all players to take full advantage of their gear. Monster health will also scale evenly across difficulty levels instead of changing based on the difficulty level being played. Normal monsters will receive a bit of a health buff, while champion and elite packs will have their health brought down. Weapon damage is also receiving a buff that will give two handed weapons a fighting chance against a single handed weapon and off-hand item, and level 61 and 62 items will have the potential to match damage of level 63 weapons. Blizzard also plans to announce several updates for each character class as part of the patch so stay tuned.

Eurocom's Mighty Scorpius Laptop Supports SLI, Up to 8GB of Video Memory
For mobile PC road warriors willing to spend top dollar on the best gaming laptops, Eurocom's massive desktop replacements usually do the trick thanks to its premium hardware components. The latest Scorpius laptop looks all set to faithfully maintain Eurocom's high-end heritage with support for both CrossireX and SLI configurations to go with its 17.3-inch display. A stock-configured Scorpius costs $1,793, but that can easily skyrocket when you starting amping up on the visuals, for starters. A pair of 4GB GeForce GTX 680M graphics cards or dual 2GB Radeon HD 7970Ms will comfortably fit in to the Scorpius' spacious (albeit bland-looking) chassis, along with some huge storage space equal to three SSDs or hard drives plus an optional mSATA SSD. Splurging on a Core i7-3920XM processor nets you a 2.9GHz chip (up to 3.8GHz) with the option to go all out on the RAM at 32GB. All that computing goodness crammed in to the belly of something barely portable is remarkable, and if you can afford the price tag, you might even have more power than some desktop PCs out there, too.
