  1. Upgrade now or wait?

    I went with the Gigabyte 7950 from superbiiz. Plus, I found a coupon code NYRESO2013 for $10 off any order over $99, so that paid for shipping and a little bit of the card. The code expires today FYI. Thanks again for all the advice and suggestions! The card should be here in a few days...

  2. Upgrade now or wait?

    That makes sense. At first I thought the whole game package deal expired at the end of last year, so I was making sure it was still valid. It's good to know that it is. After I pay a couple bills, I think I'll order one of those 7950s. Just not sure which yet.

  3. Upgrade now or wait?

    I just read this on AMD's site, which would seem to indicate that the promotion is going until 3/31/13. It seems the discount on Medal Of Honor expired at the end of last year. "Promotion Period: Promotion begins October 22, 2012 and ends on March 31, 2013. Medal of Honor Warfighter Digital...

  4. Upgrade now or wait?

    raghu78: Wow, that is quite a reply! I didn't know any stores still had the game bundle. I thought that promo ended on 12/31/12. If superbiz is still offering it, then I'd gladly order there. Are they reliable and easy to deal with? I've never heard of them. If the 7950 can be OCed...

  5. Upgrade now or wait?

    Termie: I'm OCed to 3.8Ghz. I'm not sure my system can do 4Ghz, but 3.8 is pretty close. Thank you for the card recommendations. If I get a card now, I'm going to take it to my next system (Haswell), which is why I was considering a GTX670 or 7970. While I have no problem OCing a CPU, I've...

  6. Upgrade now or wait?

    Thanks for the responses so far. You all make some great points. The only time my current system feels slow to me is when I'm playing newer games. For everything else I do, it still seems quite speedy. Still, it would be nice to have a motherboard/system that supports USB3, SATA3, PCI-e 3.0...

  7. Upgrade now or wait?

    Hi all! I'm using the system as indicated in my sig. I got some newegg gift cards for a late holiday gift. I'm heavily considering getting a new video card. At the same time, the current gen of cards have been out for a while. When asked in the comments during the live CES Nvidia blog where...

  8. X58 memory upgrade help

    palladium, I used the Win7 x64 drivers for my Gigabyte motherboard. They worked fine in Win8. I'm pretty sure Win8 comes with drivers for X58, so it wasn't 100% necessary to install them. The only driver issue I've had is with an old HDTV OnAir GT tuner from Autumwave (now out of business)...

  9. X58 memory upgrade help

    I'm on a dual boot system with Win7 and Win8. I've been using Win8 since installing it for the most part.

  10. X58 memory upgrade help

    Thanks for all the replies! Wow, 48GB of RAM! That is a LOT! I can't say I notice my system slowing down or not handling what I'm trying to do. 6GB is probably fine for me. The only thing that slows my system down are some of the newer games. I'm sure that has more to do with running a GTX...

  11. X58 memory upgrade help

    Hi all, For about the last four years, I've been running an OCed i7 920 on a Gigabyte GA-EX58-UD5 mobo with 3x2GB G.Skill DDR3 1600 8-8-8-21 running in triple channel mode. I recently put in an OCZ Vertex 4 128GB drive in it, which gave it a really nice speed boost. A while ago, I won a...

  12. Sprint HTC Hero or Samsung Moment? Why?

    Best Buy gave my family a great deal this past Saturday for the three phones we purchased there; they made the overall price the same as if we bought two of the phones from Amazon. I went with the HTC Hero. So far I really enjoy it. Texting on it is surprisingly easy, especially with the...

  13. Sprint HTC Hero or Samsung Moment? Why?

    Thanks for the tip on the price at Best Buy! I wonder how long they'll have that price. It seems like there are great phone deals every week this time of year, so it's fine if my family doesn't purchase this week. Whereas before I was leaning more towards the Moment, now I'm leaning more...

  14. Sprint HTC Hero or Samsung Moment? Why?

    I found the Moment's keyboard to be very easy to use, even with a couple keys in odd places. Hero's keyboards are usable, but I seemed to make far more mistakes with them. If Samsung was more public about their planned updates for the Moment like HTC is with the Hero, the decision would be far...

  15. Sprint HTC Hero or Samsung Moment? Why?

    Thanks for the reply! I liked the Palm Pre's interface, but the itty bitty keys are difficult for me to use. I wish they had a model with a landscape keyboard. So that's one vote for the Moment due to it's speed.

  16. Sprint HTC Hero or Samsung Moment? Why?

    Hi everybody! [feel free to skip all this background info if you want] Currently, my family is with AT&T. We have 850 minutes with rollover and...well nothing. No texting and no data. I get a rather large discount with my employer with Sprint, so we have decided to move to them. My parents...

  17. Choosing between a GA-EX58-UD5 and an E758-A1 (How's the E760?)

    I've had my UD5 system since early December of 2008. This was, by far, the easiest system build I have ever done. I'm overclocking my i7 920 C0 to 3.8Ghz with the Noctua cooler on it. It is 24/7 stable with idle temps around 40C. Load temps when running Prime95 were about 70C. I cannot get...

  18. Weekly AT TF2 Fight Night

    I just checked the server, but no one was on. However, people on a different server were claiming to be anandtech folk. Weird!

  19. EX58-UD5, Core i7 920 AHCI and install issues

    Hi rlanthony, I'm glad you got your system up and running. I wonder what's up with your SSD, though. That is odd that it won't let you install an OS on it. I wouldn't think you'd need a BIOS update to support an SSD, but you never know. Any chance it requires some oddball driver of its...

  20. EX58-UD5, Core i7 920 AHCI and install issues

    Hi rlanthony, I recall installing two drivers off of the Gigabyte DVD during Vista's setup. For the Intel Storage Matrix SATA/RAID driver browse to the BootDrv, then the iMSM folder. You will find a 32-bit and 64-bit folder in the iMSM folder. Also in the BootDrv folder is a GSATA folder...

  21. EX58-UD5, Core i7 920 AHCI and install issues

    I have the same motherboard as you. I'm using Vista x64 Home Premium on my main drive. I put Win7 RC1 on a spare drive. I didn't have to install any drivers for SATA during Win7's install. I did it with Vista because I thought it was required. In my BIOS, I enabled Native Mode and AHCI for...

  22. i7 920 w/ GA-EX58-UD3R

    Hi Trevelyan, The tweaktown forums are the best place I've seen to get beta BIOSes for Gigabyte mobos. Here is a link:Tweaktown. Make sure to download the correct BIOS for YOUR specific board. Also, make sure to read their instructions on how to correctly flash the BIOS. Always use...

  23. I7 920 2.66, scared to OC

    You have a somewhat similar setup to mine. Your temperatures are just a smidge higher than mine. Depending on the room temperature, I tend to idle around 30C and get up to about 65C with 8 threads in Prime95 64-bit. That is with my system OCed to 3.6Ghz (3.8Ghz Turbo). Your cooler looks to...

  24. I7 Guys Check In

    I have my i7 920 at 3.62Ghz (20x181) and 3.8Ghz with turbo. Idle temps are around 40C and load is about 65C in Real Temp 3.0. I'm using all auto settings except for my memory which runs at 1.6v. I'm using the Noctua NH-U12P SE1366 cooler with the two 120mm fans. I'd like to get 3.8Ghz...

  25. Got a new 1TB hard drive. Wondering which of my drives to use for OS.

    Hi all! Thanks to the "Hot Deals" section of this forum, I bought a WD 1TB Caviar Black for a great price. I have a 74GB and a 150GB WD Raptor. The 74GB has a strange SMART message, so it will not be used for anything important; I might give Linux a try on it - things of that nature. I...

  26. Enable Vdroop or Not...?

    I have a somewhat similar setup to yours (look in my sig). I'm currently OCing mine to about 3.6Ghz (3.8 with Turbo) using auto settings except on my RAM. Everything I have read has said that Load Line Calibration should be left on, especially while OCing. I don't know if that's just for the...

  27. $99 !WesternDigital Caviar Black 1TB sata 7200RPM 32MB buffer HD!

    Thank you for informing everyone about this deal. I've been waiting a while to find this drive for a great price. $99.99 + about $7 for shipping is a great deal. I get a 7% employee discount through my company with Dell. Even using that, zipzoomfly's price was still lower by a couple bucks...

  28. i7 w/dual channel kit in tripple channel setup

    That kit would work, but it seems very pricey for what you get. You can get 6GB (3x2GB sticks) kits of DDR3-1600 with CAS 8 or even CAS7 for a good bit less on newegg. If you're only taking up 3 memory slots on an X58 motherboard, then you have room for expansion later if you need it. Check...

  29. Weird S.M.A.R.T. message about my 74GB Raptor

    Acronis TrueImage! Thanks! I will have to give that program a try when I get my new drive. Considering how cheap 1TB drives are these days, I figured I might as well get that much space. It's around 11 or 12 cents per gig. Plus, I believe I get a discount with Dell through my company...

  30. Weird S.M.A.R.T. message about my 74GB Raptor

    Thank you for all the advice. I'm going to keep my eyes open for a good deal on a WD 1TB Caviar Black. I'll have to check to see if my 74GB Raptor is still under warranty. I think when I bought it, it had a 5 year warranty, but I'm not 100% sure on that. Are there any programs that...

  31. Weird S.M.A.R.T. message about my 74GB Raptor

    Thanks for the replies! I still have my data backed up from when I built this new system. That message does seem more like a "your drive had some gas, but it's all better now after a little belch." By the way, I rather enjoyed that analogy. :-) Still, I'll consider getting the 1TB drive...

  32. Fan orientation options with Antec 900, i7, and Noctua NH-U12P SE1366.

    Thank you very much for the reply, wired247. Just out of curiosity, I flipped the 200mm fan around to see if there was any difference. To be honest, I don't think there was one. And since heat rises, having that fan blowing downward caused my system temps to be a little higher. I flipped the...

  33. Weird S.M.A.R.T. message about my 74GB Raptor

    Hi all! I've noticed on my new i7 system, every time it boots up, it indicates that a S.M.A.R.T. message has been recorded about my 74GB Raptor. I used Speedfan to see what the details of the message are. Here is what it said: "Warning: Raw Read Error Rate reached, in the past, its threshold...

  34. Fan orientation options with Antec 900, i7, and Noctua NH-U12P SE1366.

    Hi all! I've been enjoying my new i7 920 system for the past month and a half. I have it in an Antec 900 case. Right now, I have the CPU cooler setup in a push-pull system with two fans that line up perfectly with the 900's exhaust fan. Add in the fact that I have one of the drive cage fans...

  35. Poll: Which PMP/MP3 player should I get?

    I have a couple albums that are my absolute favorites, so I will rip those at WMA Lossless. It seems like Zune's software does a fine job at ripping. Perhaps ripping has become rather commonplace, so it's not that difficult to get high quality rips. I'll just stick with the stock software for...

  36. Poll: Which PMP/MP3 player should I get?

    Hi tdawg! After checking out my brother and sister-in-law's Zune 30GB, I decided to do the trade. Nearly quadrupling my PMP storage space for free seemed like a great idea. While this Zune is used, it is in pretty good shape. There are a couple tiny scratches on the screen, but they're only...

  37. Poll: Which PMP/MP3 player should I get?

    I'd like to thank everyone for their help and advice. I'll add a little bit more information here, too. The Sansa Fuze 8GB was given to me by my brother and sister-in-law. They said if it doesn't work out for me, they could return it and just give me the money. Speaking with them today, they...

  38. Poll: Which PMP/MP3 player should I get?

    Does anyone have any other advice. Between the Ipod 120GB and Zune 120GB, I think I like the Zune 120GB better due to its screen size. So now it's between the Zune 120GB and the Ipod Touch 16GB. Perhaps I should simply write out the pros and cons of each and see which has the most pros. Cnet...

  39. Poll: Which PMP/MP3 player should I get?

    Hi Capt Caveman! I agree that the 16GB microSDHC cards aren't worth it right now. I would mostly use an MP3 player in my house, in my car (hooked up to my car stereo either by USB or AUX), and/or possibly at work. The extra girth of a hard drive based unit does not bother me. I'm sure I...

  40. Poll: Which PMP/MP3 player should I get?

    Hi all! For the holiday this year, my bro and sis-in-law gave me a Sana Fuze 8GB PMP (personal media player aka MP3 player). It looks very similar to the last gen. Ipod nano. It's very simple to use and can even work as a drag and drop device. Also, with the latest firmware, it supports...
