    New motherboard, HDD is aggressively spinning up/down

    Try turning off "PCI Express Link State Power Management" in advanced power management option in Windows. Apparently this option also turn off SATA drives, independent of the HDD sleep setting. After I first build my i5 & Z170 system, I would have a problem in Fallout 4 where switching weapon...

    Lego Dimensions turns collectible bricks into playable game characters

    So how do this NFC part work in this and other similar games? Do the chip have unique id per unit so it can only be registered to one account? Do they have rewritable memory to store game progress? Have they been cracked, i.e. are cheap clone chips possible? Personally I just want the Lego...

    Games and Culture - discussion and debate

    Even if it was true at the beginning, it had quickly turned into attacks on the gaming news site and writers. They can't keep using those poor girls as shields.

    Games and Culture - discussion and debate

    :facepalm: Ok just WTF is this bull shit? People complain about gaming forum censorship or if the censorship is to cover up those corruption accusations, are they also just "people who think women should only make babies and sandwiches"?

    BitTorrent: Netflix should defeat ISPs by switching to peer-to-peer

    It wouldn't work for many devices that support Netflix but have very little to no storage e.g. smart TV, Wii. Without any space to cache content they would be unable to contribute to the P2P swarm. Some older devices like WD TV may not enough CPU and RAM to do both video playback and encrypt...

    27" monitor recommendation

    Samsung has just released a 28" 60Hz 4K panel for $600 http://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=95635 Sure it is only TN but the other features and price make it quite attractive. I am sure some 27"+ 60Hz 4K IPS will come out this year at reasonable price.

    Welcome to the VR social: What to expect from Oculus in the Facebook era

    I will remain somewhat hopeful. The main problem with Facebook is it don't seems to know what it is doing. Buying Instagram and WhatsApp make some sense since they are potential Facebook killer. This whole shopping in VR vision is total non-sense. People go to Sear/Best Buy to checkout a...

    Ukraine is game to you?

    You can paint them anything due to their intentionally vague statement and your prejudice. Do you think China would fall for this little trap so easily? China is certainly don't want to be involved, and would likely abstain from any UNSC votes again Russia - Russia and do the veto himself...

    The Rise of China

    It's funny how no English media would bother to mention Japan already has a air defence ID zone covering region that Japan themselve say belongs to China's EEZ - the area west of the blue dotted line, for at least a decade. Map source. And of course it only "dangerous" or an "act of war" when...

    It's called selective quoting, all media east and west are master of. See another link: Why do you think BBC only quote the "bad-ass" part? Do they have a byte size quoter?

    The Rise of China

    I re-read it and still can't find the part that "implied no real personal grievances". If your rant was actually parading what some local folks would rant then I much apologize for misreading your actual meaning.
