Review: NuForce S3-BT High End Bluetooth Bookshelf Speakers

A full hands on video review is up for everybody to take a look at if your interested in learning more about the NuForce S3-BT Speakers.
These are uniquely designed speakers that take advantage of AAC and Apt-X codecs in a bluetooth stream to give better file compression and thus higher quality audio when streaming wirelessly.
They still function as standard high end powered speakers with a wired connection, but the bluetooth is really the main feature and selling point.

2012 WSGF Awards - Vote Now!

Hi everyone!

It's that time of the year to be voting for the best and worst of games and developers for 2012. We've got 3 developer awards and 1 game award to hand out this year.

Even though many games now offer native widescreen resolution support and some even offer native multi-monitor support, not all do it well. To help evangelize and encourage proper implementation in widescreen and surround gaming scenarios, the WSGF seeks to recognize those developers who represent the best and worst examples of widescreen support. Show your support to the devs by voting for the ones you feel are most worthy. We pass all the information onto the developers to help them feel that supporting you is worthwhile!

Get voting now!

Rift

Rift is a MMORPG set in a fantasy world called Telara, which is the focal point of several different elemental Planes. These Planes are realities representing the elemental forces of Air, Fire, Water, Earth, Life, and Death, and it is at the one point where every one of these Planes intersect with each other that Telara exists. Each Plane is governed by a Dragon-deity, which is the personification of that elemental force.

Win8 and NV Surround Guide: Working vs. Gaming Modes

Here follows a list of actions that I took to setup and use working (independent/non surround) and gaming (span/surround) modes under: Windows 8; NVIDIA Surround 2D; and a single NVIDIA graphics card (of the right type) driving 3 (DVI) monitors.

The terms "working (independent/non surround)" and "gaming (span/surround)" modes are not official (there seems to be no standard terms), they are my own.

I'm going to write under the assumption that readers haven't used Nvidia surround before (either by being new to multi-monitor setups or coming from Matrox TripleHead2Go) and are unfamiliar with Windows 8 (Win 8).
