I use BW (of course) for gaming news, but the site I used for general drivers / hardware / software update news seems to have gone tits-up ( http://www.m3dzone.com ).

Which ones do you lot use ?

(Tried Anandtech and Reactor Critical, but not too impressed)

Cheers.

I dont use one in particular.

For gaming I also use www.counter-strike.net.

HArdwarewise, I usually check out the manufacturers website for any news.

I prefer to use www.counter-strike.net seeing as its an actuall website, unlike yours.

It fking took the "." as part of the url.

I noticed it but thought, "What the hell". Folk here are smart enough to understand.

Obviously I was wrong in your case.

/me stops trying to be syntactically correct in sentencing.

If you use the vb code to link websites, then you are inviting people to click on them.

They will get the full stop as well. It wont go to any website at all, some people may be confused.

Dont get into a dizzy because I actually provided a proper link.

i recommend that folk stop ripping the piss out of folks typing when they are trying to help.

Try Tom's Hardware or Firing Squad. Tom's is quite serious, but nice, independant point of view, while FS is more for gamers, who like a bit of hardware 'on the side'.

and anandtech !

They're all thoroughly boring, bar the register on the very odd occasion.

Someone ou there needs to employ people with a stake at the humour pool to do a hardware/news website.

Theonion is ok, etc.

The hardware is exciting enough man

 

[old.Kez]

If you're into that, or have money, yes.

But looking at hw is - for me - much like window shopping. I can't afford any of it.

(having said that, I do seemingly only use my PC for music, warez and IRC et al, no actual gaming goes on [despite the warez])
