First I'd just like to say how great this site is for computer tweaking. I'd say it's the best out there as far as the quality and completeness of the tweak guides are concerned.
That said, I'd just like to offer a suggestion for the guides on the site. Even though they all can still be used, I'd think the site visitors (including myself) would all appreciate updates to some of the guides (one in particular would be the GeForce tweak guide... especially with the introduction of the newer drivers. If I'm not mistaken, the last time the guide was updated was March 2002; this was when the now ancient v23.11 drivers were still being used). Certainly some of the guides now contain irrelevant information regarding some of the tweaks as they are either no longer there or have no effect on performance on hardware or software. Although all the guides can still be used to tweak hardware to an extent, I think some updates would help some folks further optimize their hardware beyond what the current guides could do.
Also, I believe a few of the guides could be taken off as they are no longer needed or read by site visitors. A few examples would be the Detenator Driver Comparison guide, Hidden Surface Removal Guide, and the Voodoo3 tweak guide. I'm sure that there are still people out there using Voodoo3's in their computer, but I doubt that they would be playing games with it (or if they are, it's something really simple like Quake, Half-Life or Tribes). The Detenator Driver Comparison guide is no longer of any use at all since the current drivers have far surpassed the ones used in the guide. Finally, the Hidden Surface guide is practically unusable anymore since the buying-out of 3dfx. It's probably better classified as one of those "hit or miss" type of guides--either you already know about and don't need the guide, or you don't know about it (or need it) and won't bother to read it.
Anyway, I appreciate anyone who takes the time to read and maybe consider my suggestion. Thanks and keep up the great work.
