  • Is there a release date for the 2014 civic?

    Has there been any word as to when the 2014 Honda Civic will be released to NA? I am just curious because I plan to buy a 2013 Civic soon and I know I can get the best rates on a car loan from a Honda dealership if I can time my purchase withing a few weeks of the 2014 release. They would have to try their best to clear the lot of their 2013s to make room for the 2014's. I've been seeing sales on the Civic all over my local Honda Dealers so I know it must be close.

  • Buying 2013 Civic before 2014 release incentive?

    Might have worded the question above weirdly. But anyways, is there a chance that I could get a better deal from a Honda Dealership if I buy a 2013 Civic close behind the 2014 Civic release? My reasoning behind this would be that the dealerships will want to try and clear out their new 2013 models to make room for the 2014 models since they won't sell the 2013 models new once the 2014 comes out. Thanks for the help guys.

  • Does having to pee help hold back ejaculation?

    Look, i jack off and sometimes I ejaculate before I want to. It's much more satisfying if i can hold out for at least 20 min. I noticed one time I was able to go significantly longer without ejaculating because I had to hold in my pee. Normally i would just urinate and continue my session afterwards. Is there a science behind as to why i was able to hold back longer? My thoughts are that since the same muscle is used to hold back the semen is used to hold back urine, the urge to hold back urine is stronger than semen so I was essentially holding back both simultaneously.

    Thanks

  • Will the Kinect 2.0 work with the Xbox 360?

    Just wondering, cuz I got some games like Skyrim and Mass Effect 3 which have Kinect capabilities that I wouldn't mind trying out for fun. But the original Kinect was never a value to me because of the lack of games. I am getting the Xbox One, and since it comes with a Kinect 2.0, does anyone know if it will work with the Xbox 360? Or at least the Slim version since that's the one I have.

  • What processor is better for gaming?

    Between the two:

    I5-3570k (Ivy Bridge)

    I5-2500k (Sandy Bridge)

    I won't be overclocking hardly at all, just default turbo with my motherboard. They are both the same price but I was unsure which one to get. And if I did decide at some point to overclock, which would be better?

  • can I switch data plans when on contract?

    I plan on getting the iPhone 4s from Verizon (when the iPhone 5 comes out so then it will be cheaper) and I wasn't sure how much of the data I would use up in a month. Especially since I have wifi I could use at home. As well as Wifi at work. but this isnt a question where I am asking how much data I should get. I am asking whether or not, if I get a 2-year contract which comes with the $200 iphone 4S, can I modify the data plan if I need more or less. I am going to see if 300MB will suit me the first month, and if i need more, I will try to upgrade. Verizon stores are closed at the time I am posting this question so I didnt want to wait until tomorrow to ask. Thanks to all.

  • Should my side panel fan be an exhaust or intake?

    before you go straight ahead and answer, lemme explain my setup.

    I am going to be getting a GIGABYTE GTX 670. As you may or may not know, it has fans that blow away from the card, not thru the rear exhaust, just straight from the fans. Should i have my side panel fan be an exhaust so that it takes the hot air from the video card and blow it out of the case?

    I think it wouldn't make much sense to have the side panel fan be an intake because then the two air currents would intersect and potentially disrupt airflow.

    Btw my case is going to be the Antec Gaming Series one illusion Black Steel ATX Mid Tower (buying from Newegg).

    I know it sounds like I am answering my own question is because there would be a reason to have the side fan as an Intake. The video card's fans point downward towards the PSU, so in this case, maybe having cool air from the outside blowing onto the card would be better. idk. This is my first build and I am not a computer cooling pro. So i would LOVE your input, thanks ahead of time! :)

  • Is there any difference in feeling between a wireless and wired xbox controller?

    I know this sounds stupid. But is there any difference as far as button feeling and stick sensitivity? I bought a wired controller a year (unfortunately, I was naive and bought the Gamestop brand because it was cheaper). And quite frankly, it sucked. Not all wired controllers are built like that right? Mainly I am looking for a controller to use for some PC gaming as well as Xbox gaming. My controller that came with the Xbox 360 2 years ago has pretty much run its course and especially the mic port cuz it barely will read my turtle beaches, which work fine in the Gamestop brand controller. Should I just spend the extra money to buy a wireless controller and maybe a wireless receiver for the PC at a later date when I need it?

  • Is it possible to boot from SSD after Windows has been installed onto the HDD?

    I am building my PC Gaming rig and currently, I don't have the funds to buy an SSD to boot the OS from. So for now, I am going to just have it boot from my 750GB HDD along with everything else. Is it possible that at a later date, to get an SSD and move the OS stuff to the SSD and have it boot from there? If so, how? You could provide me with a link to a video tutorial or something of the sorts.

  • Is XP better for gaming than Windows 7?

    This is going to be my gaming rig setup:

    i5 3570k

    GIGABYTE Gtx 670

    Intel DZ77SL-50K Motherboard

    8GB DDR3 1600 Corsair Vengeance (4GBx2)

    750W PSU

    750GB 7400 RPM Seagate Barracuda

    I have heard that XP is better for gaming because of a few reasons. The most common reason I have heard is because it saves RAM which can be used for whatever games you may play. But since I have 8GB of RAM, should I just go ahead with Windows 7? I have a laptop with Windows 7 and I love the OS but from what I've heard, XP is better. I do have experience with XP though so I won't have to re-learn anything.

    So overall, with the amount of RAM I have, should I just go ahead with Windows 7 and not XP? Don't account money into the factor, I have money set aside for the operating system. I can upgrade RAM at a later date when games improve to the point of requiring more RAM if need be.

  • 200MM fan better for exhaust or intake?

    I am getting the COOLER MASTER HAF 912 Mid Tower. It comes with a 120mm intake and a 120mm exhaust. the system I am putting into the case will run pretty hot by my assumption. I will be buying a 200mm fan and 2 120mm fans. But whether or not the system runs hot (I don't want people asking about it instead of answering), is it better to have the 200mm as an intake and two 120mm exhausts on the top of the case, or vice versa? Of course there will be the back fan and a side panel fan as well, but those are gonna be like that anyways.

    What I am thinking of doing, but want your advice to either support or sway me, is to move the 120mm stock fan to the top of the case and add another 120 to the top as well as the side panel. Then put the 200mm fan in the front for intake. One main reason is because the 200mm fan has blue LED's and would prefer that in the front rather than the top. The extra 120's will also have blue LEDs as well. But not the stock one that comes in the front. But this isn't so much for looks as it is for cooling capabilities. So I can get another 120 Blue LED if it would be better for two 120's to be in the front and just remove the stock 120 altogether.

    Now for fashion tips (extra): Would it be too much to have blue on the top, side, and front (not back though)? Here's a link to where I will be buying the case so you can see it and judge for yourself.

    Okay well I think that's about it. Please leave nothing out as far as my questions and I will be glad to give those 5 stars and a grateful thanks. Thanks ahead of time!! :)

  • Framerate possibilities on Battlefield 3 w/0 overclocking i5 3570k?

    I'm building a gaming PC rig

    I'm getting the i5 3570k Intel processor, GIGABYTE gtx 670 2GB VRAM, and 8GB of RAM, all on the DZ77SL-50K Intel motherboard.

    I know this should all be well enough to run the game on Ultra and then some. But what kind of framerates will i be getting without OC the GPU or the CPU? The CPU runs normally at 3.4Ghz which is more than enough and the minimum requirements for BF3 on Ultra is a gtx 460, so I have the GPU down. I don't have a whole lot of experience OCing I just will have a moderate aftermarket CPU cooling fan&heat sink ($35 Cooler Master 212 EVO). So I want to avoid OC if I don't absolutely need it.

    So for the main question at hand, whats the average fps I will get running the game on Ultra.

    I know a lot of people OC constantly for their games even when they don't need it. Being a High res game like it is, I am looking for at least 45-60 fps (avg). Will I be able to achieve this without overclocking. Of course, there will be other games, but BF3 is a good enough test.

  • Xbox games voice commands with mic instead of Kinect?

    In the new Skyrim DLC, Dawnguard, there is going to be Kinect Integration as I'm sure you have all heard. Is it ever gonna be possible that those ssame voice commands could be used with a mic instead? Probably not because Microsoft wants you to buy their $100 kinect. I woulda bought one, but it just doesn't make sense tto have one in my cramped room, well, cramped in the sense that jumping around like an asshole while dancing with Clone Troopers is not recommended. What I'm wondering, is not if they will ever do it, but is it possible?

  • Is there any way to have my laptop automatically shut down when it gets to a certain temperature?

    It sounds a little weird, but yeah, tats my question. Lets say it gets too high and stuff. When I am using it, it usually stays around 50-55C and 60C when I am playing games. I know laptops will run up tp 100C but I don't wish to test that. If the laptop were to get to 80 or 90, is there a program or system function within Windows 7 that will shut it off?
