Sound:
+ :The sound is simply incredible! I owned Shure SRH 750, Monster Beats Studio , Sony headsets , anything from 100$ to 400$ but was never really satisfied about the sound.
This is the first headset I owned that has the perfect ballance between lows , mids and highs. With these headsets , I hear alot of things I couldn't hear with other headsets because I hear every single detail perfectly. Even with super fast bass drum fills , I still hear that little snare hit behind. I play alot of g

Logitech G13 Advanced Gameboard
This is a great extension to the gaming experience. Lots of button that are close to each other and each are easily programmable. The joystick, although it looks unhandy, is actually pretty great and use full. In games like World of Warcraft, it is possible to use the joystick to move your character around. This is great during boss fights being able to move and
There are times when things catch my eye and I think, "these could make for a good poem". It's been something I've done for years - I'm a writer, somewhat. I've done countless short stories and poems, have written two novellas and have started (but not finished) a few books. Unfortunately a while ago my old laptop and my external harddrive went KAPUTT, which meant I lost a good portion of my work and my two novellas, though I'm sure I have them somewhere still.
So, I thought I would share wi
Life is interesting.
Well, my life is anyways.
It seems like drama follows me around everywhere. Like herpes. And added chlamydia.
Last night my ex girlfriend texts me out of the blue, asking to meet up. It's rather difficult to get into our past, because it's quite long winded and generally when I'm finished, people are usually completely in disbelief - but general synopsis; we broke up maybe this time(ish) last year but kept seeing each other on and off 'til July, when she left f

I don't know about the rest of you, but im sick and tired of our rights and liberties being taken away one at a time slowly so the majority of clueless people dont notice.
Point #1
The war on terror
If theres ever an easy way to distract the attention from our rigjts its to say "we need to be more secure, and that means we have to give up rights like privacy and the 4th ammendment." This is bullshit. I believe the original Afghan media confirmation of Osama Bin Ladens death at Tora Bora
NVIDIA GeForce GTX 690 Launched
NVIDIA today announced the GeForce GTX 690, the world's fastest consumer graphics card -- with a bold industrial design to match. Powered by dual Kepler architecture-based GeForce GPUs, the GTX 690 is meticulously designed -- inside and out -- to deliver the most refined, elegant and smooth PC gaming experience possible.
The surprise announcement was made by NVIDIA CEO and co-founder Jen-Hsun Huang during his keynote address at the NVIDIA Game Festival in
Hey there F|A, as you may or may not know, I am CaulkLiquor. Before you ask how to pronounce CaulkLiquor I thought I might explain my intentions for this blog. There are thousands of titles for the PC; many gamers will never even play 100 of them. My plan is to play and review games that: many people have never heard of, were underrated, were overrated and most importantly community picked.
Due to the exsistence of reality, I believe this will be a bi-weekly blog with the exception being
OK, so.
Here I sit, on a bus back to my side of the country, wearing my fancy ass suit that I wore to my interview. I came up yesterday, to have a walk around Dublin, which was fun. Went to this fantastic all-you-can-eat buffet, where you picked the vegetables, meats, spices and sauces that you wanted and then gave them to a guy who cooked them all on this massive BBQ grill thingy in front of you. Had about 4 dishes and could probably have had more, but they were shutting up.

Boobs.
OK, maybe I don't entirely have anything important to say. Yes, it was a sly tactic but if you're reading it then it worked. Hur hur. Fooled you.
Yes, yes. Liar liar, pants on fire. I see Paris, I see France, I see your underpants.
Now, where was I? Oh yes. New blog post. Interesting.
Right now I'm sitting at my family home, the sun shining against my face with a gentle breeze blowing. OK, not so gentle now. Brr. But I'll soldier on nonetheless. I have a busy week, an i
Samsung will unveil the next Galaxy phone May 3rd in London
After months of rumors Samsung has officially announced the world will meet the Galaxy next phone in London on May 3rd with this invite, first received by Dutch site Tweakers.net. While most speculation will immediately focus around something we're expecting to arrive as the Galaxy S III, the BlackBerry World spoiling invite we received is conspicuously devoid of details like name or specifications. While we'll keep the address of t
I'm not entirely sure why I'm writing this, but who knows, maybe it'll do me some good to get it off my chest. Maybe it'll do me some good to read it back. Who knows?
Here we go -
I suffer from pretty bad anxiety. This comes from a rough childhood and a whole lot of other stuff that isn't entirely important right now. This anxiety usually manifests itself in the form of social anxiety, which I'm dealing with better. It was tough and go, but I got there. Mostly this causes a domino effect
OK, this is a blog.
My blog.
Well, fancy that.
OK. I'm getting myself off track. Where was I? Where am I? Have I got pants on? Yes. Good.
I'm not entirely sure what to say here, apart from general ramblings about different things, which is essentially what a blog is, right? Look - I'm shouting words at the internet. CAN. YOU. HEAR. ME?
Guess a follow-on from my introduction thread. I'm 26. From Ireland. For now. This could change within the next couple of months/year, becaus
Not really good at writing these things so you wont read an awesome blog entry as others have recently, but I realized today I been an F|A member for nearly two years now, originally set on trial in May of 2010.
All I have to say it has been an awesome two years here in F|A I've been part of a few online communities (none gaming related) but none have given me the joy, satisfaction, and friendship I have received from you all in my two years here. I've made some really good friends here, som
So its time for another (long awaited i know) entry in my blog. Its been awile.
As for this entry of things that tend to drive me nuts or ruin my day... we now have the media. Which is nothing new. But for anyone living in America who has any idea of the dangerous waters we have been in for the past decade knows that we have piss poor media coverage on important subjects! From out boohooing over a stupid AAA credit rating (which our government has been abusing anyway), to the ridiculous Tray
Samsung Galaxy S III (i-9300) to Launch in 2-5 Weeks, Immediate World-Wide Availability
It is rumored that Samsung will launch Galaxy SIII superphone at the Samsung Unpacked event (May 22). However, we've been told that the launch is being moved forward, with immediate world-wide availability (excluding USA, which will follow in Summer 2012).
A lot of ink, both virtual and physical was spent on speculations what the specifications of one of hottest smartphones, or "superphones" will be.
A single slot GeForce GTX 680 Which is under production by manufacturer Galaxy has been pictured making it the third non-reference GTX 680 in Galaxy's lineup. Other than the single slot GTX 680, Galaxy is also preparing a 4GB model and a Hall of Fame Edition GeForce GTX 680 Which were detailed in our previous post here.
There's not much to detail except that the card uses a single slot design Which covers a PCI-e slot expansion, It is cooled by a blower fan and would stick to the reference cloc
Samsung Galaxy S III launch reportedly confirmed for April
The sequel to Samsung's wildly popular Galaxy II will launch in April. ZDNet Korea claims to have confirmed the time frame with Cheil Worldwide, Samsung's marketing and advertising agency. The firm is reportedly planning a huge campaign in the United Kingdom, one of the Galaxy S III's initial launch markets, and the focus of the ad blitz will be this year's Summer Olympics, will take place in London, Which. An earlier report from an
The Samsung Galaxy S III Leaked! 1.5GHz, 4.8-inch 1080p Display, Ceramic Case
Samsung previously made it known that the Galaxy S III would not be announced at Mobile World Congress.
But it leaked anyway. And it might steal the show. Forgot about the HTC and Sony Xperia X One U, the Samsung will be the Android phone GSIII to beat in 2012.
Inside the Galaxy S III is said to be a Samsung Exynos CPU running at 1.5GHz quad-core. It will power a 4.8-inch 16 × 9 display that's reportedly a
On the week starting March 20th, NVIDIA will unveil GeForce products based on the Kepler GPU architecture. We got our hands on a board and saw very interesting solutions…
In the first of a series of articles, we'll analyze the way how NVIDIA will supply power for the GK104, rumored to debut as the "GeForce GTX 670 Ti". The specs are wildly rumored "on the Internets", but it is clear that this might be another winner for NVIDIA. Or… not.
The final verdict will be given by the reviewers and m
Ok so I had to reinstall some software, and kept getting repeated installation failures even after system cleansing, restarts, safe mode, etc. Every time it would say:
"Installation failed due to one or more unresolved issues. Error I-001" followed by "Error: Cannot find installation. Check this program is installed before attempting to install" - LOL?!
Anyway, eventually I figured out that if you delete the following hidden folder, you remove the issue.. It's just InstallShield confus
I'm not going to be technical but it's close enough to say I've been in F|A for one year.
I first started out as a ET addict searching servers and by some miracle I found the F|A servers. Now after a few weeks of play, I registered for the forums and would soon apply, at first it was slow and not many took an interest in me, but after 1-2 months I was put into trial status.
About 2-3 months later of hard work and foruming I was promoted to ET Member. Within the summer months of 2011 thou
Nvidia Kepler GTX680 vs Radeon HD 7970
