Nvidia GTX 780
It almost feels like we have been seeing the 600 series of cards from Nvidia for a few years now. At a year and two months we are a little past due to see a new generation of cards and today we can finally take the wraps off of NVidia’s latest card, the GTX 780. Rumors have been going around for a while on this launch so let’s just jump right into it and see what it’s all about and then how it performs. One thing is for sure, this will be the start of a lot of exciting cards, and 2013 is going to be a good year!
A year later: Transformer Prime
I’m going to come clean to you guys/girls. I have had tablets for the past 2-3 years and for the first few years, I really never put them to use. I found them to be cumbersome, slow, and there just wasn’t enough reason to use them. Frankly I could do it all on my phone just as well, with a smaller screen of course. About a year ago I had a Transformer Prime come in. With Nvidia’s Tegra 3 quad core CPU I was intrigued and the optional keyboard was icing on the cake. I decided to REALLY give it a try and see what I thought. A year later I want to talk a little about my experience.
Truly Ergonomic Mechanical Keyboard Model 207
When it comes to ergonomic keyboards there are only a few to pick from and, for the most part, all of those are rubber dome keyboards. Ergonomic mechanical keyboards are really limited to two different models, one being the Truly Ergonomic. Today we are going to take a look to see how it compares to everything I have tested to date. I expect an adjustment period just to its shape alone, but as a writer by trade I am very curious how it will affect me day to day. The gamer in me is just as curious on how it will perform in game as well. Let’s take a closer look.
Genius Ring Mouse 2
When it comes to pointers for the computer there are multiple solutions. Most of them come in the traditional flat on a mouse pad form, but occasionally a company comes up with an innovative way to control the pointer on our screen. Genius has developed a “ring mouse” and I have the pleasure of looking at their second version of this particular design in the Ring Mouse 2. I will look at the device’s versatility and functionality in this review and see how it stacks up not only as a pointer, but also as an alternative solution to our browsing needs.
Asus Maximus V Formula
Let’s be honest, Asus has a whole product line full of good motherboards. So much that it really takes a special motherboard to stand out from the crowd. There has been one specific board that has stuck with me for the past year and a half though, back from when I took a visit to the Asus office and they pulled it out to show me. That motherboard would be the Maximus V Formula. I’m sure you are wondering what made it stand out, especially considering all of the motherboards we have in the office, including boards like the Rampage IV. Well I only have a limited amount of space in the opening; you will have to peek inside our review to find out.
Happy Holidays everyone. Gaming News is wrapping up for the year but I have a couple of quick hits before the new year. Android has Apps on sale everyday this week for ten cents, Midweek Madness has a great RPG on sale this week, a new Flatout Game is almost here and a quick hit of news at the end. Get ready to build a snowman, Gaming News starts now.

Need some games for you phone? Then this is the week. Over the next couple of days Google is selling games, apps, etc for ten cents on the Android Marketplace. Head on over to this LINK and check out what they have for sale. Again, this changes everyday so you have to be quick on the trigger to buy stuff. But don't worry, it's only ten cents so even if it sucks I bet you can find ten pennies laying on the ground throughout the week.
This CarrierIQ thing is getting out of control really fast. If you haven't read up on it yet and you own a cell phone, I encourage you to search around for the lastest news and also watch the YouTube video that can be found here.
Looking for some RAM, wish that you had more? Check out this forum post from our Editor-in-Chief Wes.
Get your Xbox's ready, the Fall Update is coming. Looks like a revamp to the Dashboard is due. I wouldn't know though, I don't game on consoles.
Love this article over at PC Perspective about gaming, easily worth a read. Thanks goes out to PcPer.com for the link.
The DLC for Battlfield 3 will begin dropping next week. For those of you that are playing this will increase your multiplayer gaming time. More DLC is always a good thing.
For those of you that are looking forward to the Galaxy Nexus on Verizon don't be too surprised if they gimp the device just a little. Google Wallet will not be coming. It's a sad day to be a Verizon customer.
That's it for this week LanOC. The next couple of weeks are going to be super busy. Not only do I have my final, finals for college but I am also going up to the Main LanOC office for Christmas.
Thanks goes out to all of our community for a great year. You guys are the best. Not only did you show up to our LAN when the S hit the F but you came out in the largest numbers that we have ever seen. 2012 is going to be even bigger for LanOC.
Wishing everyone a safe and Happy Holidays from everyone here at LanOC.
Until next time,
Wingless is out!
