    I would like to see a major improvement especially the internal build quality and cooling solution. (and let's hope Razer QC will be improved)

    Headshot_ reacted to Arika in Would disabling the touchscreen on an XPS 15 help battery life?   
    if it does it's not going to do to much in terms of battery life. There is a significant increase in battery time on non-touch vs touch screen laptops of the same model, but disabling it will likely just turn off the controller/disable the inputs, not prevent power draw for it

    Some games have compatibility issues or they don't even run on x360. The XB1 cannot run original xbox games. 
    Example: Underground 2 on xbox 360 will have cutscenes that stutter a lot

    Not really, I find it's UI rather dated. I'd rather Windows 7 or Windows 10.

    More than enough.

    Still not enough.

    You won't be able to play gamecube games. Only the Wiis before that stupid no wifi and no gamecube jack revision can do that. There are also no Virtual Console gamecube games on any Nintendo console yet.
     
    Basically, you can only play wii discs and wii u discs (Plus some old Virtual Console games)

    Headshot_ reacted to JefferyD90 in [Sorry if Clickbait] Need some information about this issue I'm having   
    First and foremost a router doesn't matter what kind of internet you have.  Your modem on the other hand, is the piece of equipment that converts your ISP's signal to a regular RJ-45 Ethernet connection that you (typically) plug into your router or computer.
     
    Moving on, a 100Mbps connection means about 12MBps download.  Which means you will HAVE to have at the very least a Wireless N (full draft) router and adapter if you want to get it to work on a wireless connection.
     
    Now, lets look into this with a realist point of view.  Most of your notebooks that are produced today, come with "Built in WiFi", which isn't necessarily "Built in" its almost always a PCI-I 1x add-in card.  And if you're a manufacture, like Dell or HP, would you spend $50 on a good adapter (of which 90% of people would never use more than 10% of its capabilities), or would you spend $10 on a average adapter that supports transfers that double the average internet speed in America?  And further more, do you know what kind of speeds (or even what kind of wireless draft) your adapters are?  If you have a Wireless N 150Mbps adapter, you're only going to see 75Mbps over that connection (75 up and 75 down to make the full 150), and that is with a perfect signal.
     
    The rule of thumb is 100% signal strength equals 100% of the speed.  90% of the signal strength equals 80% of the speed.  80% of the signals strength equals 75%...  and so on.  Anything below about 30% signal strength will result in occasional drop outs.
     
    Getting to my point, if you're getting 50Mbps on a wireless network, its really not that bad as long as you haven't spent a bunch of money on your network devices.  That's about right for most OEM computers.
     
    Reason why your 5Ghz band probably works better is because that adapter is probably a higher quality.  I personally wouldn't worry about it so much, I mean are you really going to saturate your 100Mbps connect on just ONE computer?  The idea of a 100Mbps connection (at least to me) is so you can have several computers doing several things {one watching Netflix, the other gaming, and another browsing CNN} and no one on the network notices a hitch.

    Headshot_ reacted to Atmos in Far Cry Primal map, the same map as Far Cry 4?   
    The difference is GTA is supposed to be in the same area, and the layout is significantly different from the original with massive overhauls.
    This has virtually the exact same layout as far cry 4, but the big difference is one is located in the Himalaya, in ASIA, and the other is located in centeral EUROPE, almost on the other side of the globe from each other.

    This looks like the best performing laptop in the price range.  Broadwell i3 (i3-5010U) and a 500gb HDD should be sufficient for word and browsers
     
    It's on sale from 499 down to 370. Good deal atm.

    Hey guys, thanks for the positive comments on this case  Its been a year in the making and after four prototypes we finalized the case. I know there has been concerns on how it is all put together. Please look at this image is it gives you a better idea on how the thermals work. We didn't just throw standard parts into a cylindrical case .. no .. First we measured the standard parts and designed it to look good in the case while maintain good thermal dynamics and good cable management. 
     

    I hope that helps to give you an idea of how the thermals work and cable management.
