Samsung 840 Pro SSD review From Guru3D: Now before you go, huh what ? TLC (tender love 'n care) I do have to explain the introduction title. Samsung very recently released the new 840 series SSDs. The new 840 uses TLC NAND flash (TLC is short for triple level cell) cells whereas the PRO models (as tested today) still use the popular MLC NAND. TLC is short for triple level cell, but it’s simpler to state that each TLC NAND cell is able to hold three bits of data while MLC was only able to record two bits. A TLC NAND flash chip will hold 50% more data than an MLC NAND flash chip with the same number of cells. The increase in density however makes that NAND type a bit slower. In fact as such the 840 Pro series uses MLC NAND, and the more affordable basic 840 SSDs use TLC. With TLC NAND reportedly beings a good chunk slower and having less write cycles, really you might want to be on the lookout for the PRO models, as we'll test today. Read More ...
Ghostbusters Mint 13 Tutorial I grew up watching the Ghostbusters Franchise and have been waiting many years for a video game based off the movie. If you haven't played it yet... you have to! Its amazing and extremely fun! Not only is the game written and voice acted by the same characters in the movie, it is full of amazing New York environments with all the ghosts you can imagine! But this is not a review, instead I'm going to walk you through installing and configuring Ghostbusters to play in your Linux Mint 13 Operating System. Note: This tutorial is for the retail version. Steam and downloaded versions may have additional steps. Read More ...
Nvidia's GeForce Experience, a tool to automatically optimize PC game settings From The Verge: In April, Nvidia CEO Jen-Hsun Huang told us that the days of painstakingly tweaking PC game settings to get a decent gaming experience could soon be over. With GeForce Experience, he said, the company would use supercomputers to figure out the optimal settings for each game and each hardware configuration, by tailoring settings to your computer. Today, the tool enters closed beta, supporting around 30 games to start. We got to try it out for ourselves this week, and sat down with some Nvidia software engineers to see how it works.

GRAW Mint 13 Tutorial
Far Cry 3 VGA Graphics Benchmark performance test From Guru3D: So then, in this review we'll look at Far Cry 3 VGA Graphics benchmark performance with roughly 14 graphics cards. The new and popular title is looking great from a graphics point of view. But as a result how will it perform on a selection of different graphics cards ? This review will cover all these basics and then more so you know what choice to make either graphics card or in-game settings wise. Read More ...

The technical details behind Intel's 7 watt Ivy Bridge CPUs
Intel explains how the new CPUs can use 7 watts of power, sort of.
If you were reading our CES coverage last week, you'll know that among other things Intel introduced a handful of new, lower-power Y-series Ivy Bridge CPUs designed to fit into thinner and lighter Ultrabooks and tablets. The slides in Intel's keynote called these "7 watt" Ivy Bridge CPUs, and the company compared them directly to the 17 watt U-series chips in wide use today.

GRAW Mint 13 Tutorial
Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter
I've always been a fan of First Person Shooters with an emphasis on military operations. The original Ghost Recon was truly original because it combined First Person Shooter with Real-Time Strategy. You can command your teams to move, attack, flank, hold and defend all the while you are aiming down the scope at enemies. GRAW entered the gaming industry right after all of the new lighting and physics effects were implemented due to the advances in video processing. Though it ran slow on modest computers... GRAW was extremely beautiful: reflections, highlights and amazing smoke & explosion effects. It also includes almost all the features of the original Ghost Recon along with a bunch of new features because its based in the future. I didn't have any problems running it in Mint 13 and was actually quite pleased with the graphical results and frame rate performance. This tutorial will walk you step-by-step installing and configuring GRAW to run in PlayOnLinux Linux Mint 13.
