  • What kind of mouse do you like for gaming?

    So I personally chose the Logitech G100s mouse for my gaming setup. It's just a regular old mouse with a wheel and a left and right button. The only addition to it's otherwise normal appearance is a sensitivity button that cycles through low, medium, and high mouse acceleration.

    Basically what I'm wondering is what kind of mouse do you personally prefer. I see lots of my friends and people online who use Razer Nagas and other mice with tons of buttons but I don't like those. I prefer the 2 button setup and yes I do play genres like MMORPG's and MOBA games and it's doesn't hinder my playstyle at all. In fact I'm usually better than the friends who use said mouse. In the end though I'd just like to know what your personal preference is and why?

  • How to become a Video Game Programmer?

    So for the past 2-3 years I have been playing around in game engines learning programming in both JavaScript and C# and now I am a Senior in High School and want to go to college for it next year. However, not a single college near me or even within a 2 hour drive offers any sort of courses in Video Game programming or even design. I don't want to move to a different state because I currently have a secure job that provides me enough money to live comfortably while I attend school.

    So I want to know what school I should attend online and what kind of degree I should go for. Every school I find I check for it's credibility and I always find them to not be. I really would like help because this is the career I would like to do. Help would be very appreciated.

  • Car shut off abruptly?

    While leaving my college class I turned my car on to hear it struggling to stay on, basically running but chugging along as if it was at 500 rpms or so. I revved the engine and the car made a tinging noise like someone dropped a metal wrench in there and it was bouncing around. I attempted to drive home so I could do research and go get replacement parts but it started losing speed while still "accelerating" then just shut off. The engine didn't sieze because it will attempt to turn over but just a bunch of smoke pours out. If anyone has a solution that would be wonderful, I had a tow truck bring me home and I need to fix it as soon as possible.

  • Best ATI Card for a Good Price?

    My dad just got a gaming computer so he could play things like Battlefield 3 and Crysis with me. Unfortunately it gets around 20 fps with all settings on low. I want him to experience the game at 60fps the graphical quality really doesn't matter.

    So basically I'm wondering what ATI card would bring it to 60fps on say Medium to High quality at around or under $100. If that's not possible I'd like to know the next best option. The rest of his PC has a 6 core AMD processor, 8 GB or RAM and I don't know about the power supply. I don't know anything about AMD or ATI since I have an Intel/ NVidia PC.

  • Good quality durable headset?

    So for awhile now (can't tell exactly how long) I've had a stereo Razer something or other. Now I want to get a 7.1 surround headset since I do audio work, watch movies and play games competitively. I was wondering if anyone knew of a good quality headset like that. I looked into the Razer Megalodon but it has poor reviews for breaking quickly so anything but Razer and Turtle Beach are acceptable. Also it must be comfortable, my current headset is extremely comfortable to wear.

I have 5 120mm fans keeping it at good temp and the fan speed of the card to 60 which is the highest it will go but still it does it.

  • Can someone make me a really intense logo for free?

    I need a really professional logo for my game to put it up on Kickstarter but I'm not an artist and cannot make anything really at all in Photoshop or illustrator. So could someone make a logo for me? Just really intense centered around an action game. The Logo would read "Floobles" and underneath it "TOTAL DESTRUCTION"

  • What is the effectiveness of Dual GPU's?

    Right now in my Computer is a GTX 660. I want to buy a 690 soon when I save enough money for it. What I want to know is if I should keep my 660 in there to be a dual gpu with the 690 or give it to my brother whose looking to build a PC? My first queation is, how do I get the full effectiveness from dual Gpu's. Secondly, is the performance level rather significant from just one. Finally, I make YouTube videos, I plan to record the next generation games on the maximum settings. My other components in my computer easily meet the requirements but I'm wondering if the second GPU is neccesary for a solid 60 FPS or if the 690 is enough?

  • Fraps not recording at 60 FPS?

    I do YouTube videos as a hobby and I try to give the best quality I can, before my old laptop could run things at 30FPS so I recorded the game at 30 FPS. I now have a powerful desktop that easily runs things on ultra at 60 FPS but even when I set the setting to 60FPS in Fraps it records in 30. It's obviously a bug because it will start at 60 and drop down slowly. How can I fix this?
