I'm using a Microsoft wireless 2000 keyboard which I've had for a while now. It has actually been real good for everything I do including gaming, but this one needs to be replaced and I'm looking to see what to get next. Looking at the Logitech wireless illuminated keyboard . Like it because it works with the Logitech unifying receiver, but not sure I want to spend that much. Not really a big fan of wires, but also looking at the Logitech G105 gaming keyboard.&...

My new PC doesn't have an optical drive, so I loaded up my Windows 8 ISO onto a USB drive and installed it. It didn't ...

You might have seen me mention it before, but my current main/gaming PC is around 7 years old. I really can’t complain though, because it has lasted and really hasn’t caused any problems until now. I built it then for around $600 or so, and it is the main PC I work with and play games on. The past couple of months it has been difficult to start and keep running efficiently, so it’s time to start looking at a new build. In a previous post I mentioned I was l...
