The (sort of) Desktop Switch pt. 2

So here we are, I've got a mid-2012 Macbook Pro Retina, a Razer Deathstalker, a Razer Naga 2014, a little amp with some decent speakers, and a new monitor... My monitor of choice? I picked up an LG 24MP57 for $179. I know it isn't the BEST monitor, but it's IPS, decently sized, and not $1000. So how does it all stack up? its nice! I no longer feel like I'm peeking into an apartment peep-hole on a 15" screen and I have a truly desktop experience. Admittedly, I miss the multi-finger gestures of t

Keeps rebooting

After I restored my laptop to its original form when I bought it, my laptop resets and stays like that. It keeps rebooting over and over again to where the dell logo only shows on the screen and restarts again.. Not really sure what's happening but I know I didnt factory reset it where I would have to reinstall windows.. When it reboots the only option its giving me is F2 for setup and F12 for booting options.. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

most amd GPUs

Now before i say one opinion/factish hybrid,i just want to say i have no hate towards amd i am just pointing out one fault that I've noticed in their cards.   AMD graphics cards on paper compared to nvidia's cards sometimes look better but most amd comparison videos i have seen show the amd gpu hitting a 10-15 fps less than the nvidia counterpart, however amd GPUs are cheaper so it's kind of just what you have to spend but for only a slightly higher price you can buy an nvidia counterpart but

My (sort of) Desktop Switch

I've been having thoughts lately of making the switch from full-time laptop user to desktop user.   Over the past 8 years or so I have had two Macbook Pros (15" -> 15" retina, I can give more specifics if you guys really care) as my daily drivers. Now, let me start off by saying that I DO NOT want to turn this into an argument about Mac vs. PC, because that isn't what this is about. Rather, this post is about my thought process as I consider the switch from laptop to desktop. I am out of sc

Apple to finally make a new phone with a bigger battery

The new iPhone, called the 6sb, will be geared toward users that think making these huge phones ridiculously thin instead of putting another battery in it is asinine. (95% of consumers according to market research) Jony Ive, Apple's Chief Design Officer (CDO) noted "Just by making the phone 5mm thicker, we were able to make it actually last all day playing games and browsing the internet on max brightness and still have battery left. Who knew you could sacrifice just a few millimeters and totall

Smartphone addiction can 'Disable' Human Brain Memory

My story with PCs.....

Hi, I am Polish immigrant that came to US couple years ago. Back in Poland I use to play only on PCs (Old Laptop). In US everyone of my friends and family are playing on consoles; I had no choice so I bought my first console (PS3). Couple months after that I bought my second console (PS4) but everyday I was thinking about all days when I was PC gamer. 1 year after that I decided to build my PC and come back to old days of PC Gaming. That's why I am here; I plan to spend at least 1,500$ on this p

From Stryker to Trooper

I am attempting my first PC case mod, and thought that the LTT forums would be a good place to get some help.I am using a CM Storm Stryker case, and would like to turn it into a Star wars themed build. I am looking for any ideas that fall into the white, black, and red color scheme that I'm going for, so feel free to post any ideas. Stipulations: -I have no problem painting my case, but I will not cut it. However, I am not a painter, I will more than likely be spray painting a stencil. -I

WATA ON MARS!

NASA confirms liquid water flows on Mars!   This isn’t tech, just ignore that fact.   During the planet’s warmer seasons, water exists along the surface of mars. Holy crap. This data comes from NASA’s MRO spacecraft that studies the planet’s orbit. Streaks formed by the water confirm it is salt water. Before this, we only thought water was on Mars, we didn’t have confirmation. Now, we do. This is amazing.   We know that 4 BILLION years ago that Mars was home to an ocean, but in 4 BILLION

Are Smartwatches Relevant in 2015?

How relevant are Smartwatches?   It is 2015, and smartwatches are the baby of technology. Smartwatches are the most personal devices ever made, for sure. Myself, I hopped on the smartwatch bandwagon, buying the original Pebble in early 2014. I loved it, and still use it today. But something people ask a lot and I see a lot is “Are smartwatches really worth it” or “Why can’t you pull out your phone to look at something?” Those questions I will answer in this article.   Smartwatches, something
