Tweaking android smartphones(How to install a custom ROM and how to root)


Intro
 I've always had a thing with tweaking stuff. Since I was young, I would always try to make everything run better even if it meant hours and hours of effort.After finding out how tweakable smartphones are,I couldn't resist getting one.The Huawei Ideos X5 got my attention as it was really affordable even though it sported hardware used in phones with double its price.
 You may wonder:"How tweakable can a smartphone be?".The surprising answer is as much as a pc if there are developers supporting it.With some tinkering you can change their their user interface and operating system,add features previously locked and even overclock their cpus.Atlhough this applies to all smartphones,I will describe how to do these on those with the Android operating system because I am unfamiliar wih the iOS counterparts.

Gamer Hardware: Should I focus on the CPU or the GPU?



 Intro
The most important parts of a gaming computer are undoubtedly the cpu and the gpu. The gpu processes the game's graphics, outputting everything you see in a game and the cpu processes the game's physics. To make a long story short, making a wrong choice with each of these will make your games unplayable or playable with lower than optimal settings.
  In this blog post though, I do not intend to mention the best cpus and gpus for different budgets (you can find this in one of the numerous reviews posted on major hardware review sites). Instead,I want to focus on how you should balance your budget between these two components in order to achieve optimal performance .
