Just ran it stock 1.4 and i returned a score of 9732 Interesting. We're close, but running a 5950U you would think I would be doing better. Although, when I ran a stock FX5900 and a FX5950U against each other (both Gainward cards) it almost didn't register a difference. I think the 5950U got about …

Guys, does US postal service work more or less as usual? I have a (delayed) order that is supposed to be sent from New Mexico to California. I'm not in US myself, so don't really understand what's going on there in terms of daily life. I've been receiving USPS, UPS, and FedEx packages quickly. My …

Funny, one showed up at my door too. Imagine that! Probably the best Socket 5 upgrade out there? This is actually for a friend and fellow vintage hardware enthusiast in the UK.

Yeah, I got caught by that buying a physical copy of Duke Nukem Forever. Never going to make that mistake again and is why I swore off borroware over a decade ago. Haven't missed it a bit. Vote with your wallet.
