    Upgrade to eVGA GTX 280?

    Hello All I currently have a eVGA 9800 GX2. I see the awesome benchmarks of the GTX 280, and was curious if an upgrade would be worth it? I know that in some games the GX2 is close/same as GTX 280, but all in all, I see the GTX 280 beating the GX2. Plus if I get the 280 now, I would possibly...

    Gaming mice!

    Gaming mice!

    Speaking of the MX1000, does anyone know where to get one? I have the mouse and my kids broke it. I'd love to buy another one, but the only place I can find one is ebay and I'm not so trusting of everything I see on ebay. I found it one other place, but they wanted $149 for just a mouse!!!

    Step up from 8800 Ultra to 9800 GX2?

    No performance issues. I just HAVE the Step Up that I can utilize and want to know if it's worth utilizing it, or would it be better to keep what I got. As someone already told me, whether I keep the Ultra or get the 9800GX2, I'd still have a kicka!! card. If it's worth the deal, I'd like to...

    Step up from 8800 Ultra to 9800 GX2?

    I did ACTUALLY pay $700 for it though. Dell then reimbursed me $250 after the fact, but after all I've read, I'll be keeping the Ultra, possibly buying another down the road. I still am not sure if my PSU will support SLI on Ultras. It's not on the SLI list for Ultra SLI certified PSUs - does...

    Step up from 8800 Ultra to 9800 GX2?

    I pay shipping, and since the Ultra costs more than the 9800GX2, then no, I pay nothing else. (and no, they don't give me the difference of the two cards.)

    Step up from 8800 Ultra to 9800 GX2?

    I really ask about the power supply because on SLI Zone.com the lowest PCP&P psu that they certify for 2 Ultras is the Turbo Cool 860W psu. I know they certify these for SLI, but I don't want to spend $260+ just to have a SLI certified psu.

    Step up from 8800 Ultra to 9800 GX2?

    Actually, on that comment, I had a separate question...If I kept the Ultra and decided to get another when the prices drop, would the Power Supply in my sig (PCP&P) be able to power 2 Ultras?

    Step up from 8800 Ultra to 9800 GX2?

    No, I wouldn't get a refund for anything. Actually, remember when Dell was offering that MSI OC'd 8800GT? Well, I ordered 2 of them and when I called to inquire as to why they weren't shipping 5 days after they said the cards would ship, they offered a consolation of the next card coming out...

    Step up from 8800 Ultra to 9800 GX2?

    Hello All I've been on the eVGA site as well looking for some insight on this. I have the 8800 Ultra and qualify for eVGA's extended 120-day Step Up to the 9800 GX2 promo. Some downsides of the 9800 GX2 are the bus width and the lower memory. I know that they are both times 2, but some of...

    Setting up RAID5...

    Hi All I'd like to set up RAID 5 with my 3-320GB drives. I tried this once when I bought the third drive, but ran into a problem. I'd set up the RAID in the BIOS and start to install XP. When I finished XP and started to install Vista (I have dual boot, XP and Vista Ultimate 32bit), it'd run...

    Step-up Path

    Well, I only paid $450 for it from Dell. When all of us got in on that MSI deal, they screwed up and cancelled my order and for a consolation, they gave me the Ultra for $450 shipped to my door. That's still a lot of $$, but it was such a good offer, I took it. That was Dec. 13th....Here it is 2...

    Step-up Path

    So, I have the 8800 Ultra and my step up ends on March 13. Will it be worth it to step up to the 9800GX2? I play at 1920x1200, so would the 256bit bus width be good enough to keep up high framerates? All advice appreciated.

    Incorrect temp in RivaTuner?

    I have RivaTuner opened and it shows the temp of the GPU at 60C. I look inside GPUZ and the temp is 54C. Which one is correct?:confused:

    No, I'm not using SLI. So, you are probably right. I think I'll just wait where I am. Thank you, Rhonda.

    750w Power Supply and 8800GTX SLI

    Not to get too off track, but do you have any relation to aigomorla? He's a very knowledgeable guy for watercooling. Or are you aigomorla?

    Is 780i worth it?

    Yeah, but will eVGA offer me to upgrade to the 790i for $89? That's what I keep getting hung up on. It just seems like such a good offer, but again, PCI-E 2.0 is supposed to double the throughput. Since I am looking to upgrade my vid card to the 9xxx, I'd like to take advantage of the extra...

    Is 780i worth it?

    Well, I am just wondering if PCI-E 2.0 is worth it? I have the 8800 Ultra now, but my Step-up expires in March, so hopefully I can get the next GTX by then, which should be PCI-E 2.0.

    Suggested Tweaks to Max My System

    Yeah, go for RivaTuner to do the OverClocking and to set some fan profiles, and use ATITools to check for Artifacts. Or just play graphics-intensive games for about an hour at each jump of your OC. Here is a good guide to use RivaTuner and it'll show you how to OC and set the fan profiles...

    750w Power Supply and 8800GTX SLI

    That's fine. Most high end cards only require a max of 35A, so you're golden.

    Geforce 9 Series coming this Feb

    Actually, in hampster's link, there is supposedly 10.1 support. "NVIDIA publicly confirmed other details of D9M: DirectX 10.1 support, Shader Model 4.0, OpenGL 2.1 and PCIe 2.0 support just to name a few."

    750w Power Supply and 8800GTX SLI

    Yeah, what is the brand/model of your PSU? Some PSU's may have the wattage, but crappy amperage. But like JimiP said, 750W should be fine.

    Is 780i worth it?

    I have the eVGA CK-122-NF68-680i-A1 mobo and got the email from eVGA about their offer to upgrade my mobo to the 780i for $89. Now, I am not going to be doing 3-way SLI, so my questions is: Is upgrading to the 780i worth it? Will there be any kind of performance increase? You can see what...

    Waaaah where is the 9xxxx series?

    But the real question is "When does the next GTX/Ultra come out?" My step-up window ends on March 13. Hopefully before then. I wished nVidia DID keep the "best comes out first" approach. Does anyone have any word on the GTX release date?

    Replacing an 8800GTX with an 8800GT

    So, do you have any reference for me to look at for this dual G92 card? Yes, I was hoping to be able to step up to something that will kick the Ultra's butt. My deadline is March 13, so hopefully something good comes out by then. I was hoping that the next GTX would come out by then, but from...

    Replacing an 8800GTX with an 8800GT

    Hey, How much did you get for it? I have one and gave it to my little bro. Maybe he'd want to sell it and get an 8800GT? Also, SteelSix, what kind of cooler is that on that card? It looks like a beast!! I have the Ultra with the stock cooler, and I was thinking of getting an aftermarket...

    24" monitor - Samsung 245BW vs. Dell E248WFP

    Yeah, I bought the Samsung 245BW that you are referring to. I love it. I'm sorry, but I can't provide any advanced technical feedback on it. That's not one of my strong areas, but like I said, I love it. I upgraded from my Dell 19" UltraSharp and it was a huge improvement! I had a XFX 8800 GTS...

    8800 Ultra Question on temps

    EVGA step up, will there be a card worth upgrading to by March 13th??

    I was thinking the exact same thing because my Step Up expires the very SAME day!! I've read that some think the new GTX will be out, others say summertime, but like you said, I'm not holding my breath. Anyone know something substantial?

    8800 Ultra Question on temps

    8800GT Bottleneck, how fast is fast enough

    He's right. I have mine at 3.0GHz and voltage at 1.21v and temps are upper 30s. I have a Zalman HSF, but I've heard that 3.0GHz on stock HSF isn't unreasonable. Check the Stepping, though. The B3 will run hotter and has a lower temp ceiling (it runs at 105W and the temp ceiling is 62C). The G0...

    I have to be honest. I have always enabled it and not known what it was, in my ignorance. Thank you for explaining what it was. I had the 640MB GTS and just wanted to see what the performance was with all of the features turned on. It worked well, so I left them on. So, can you explain what LOD...

She didn't offer a consolation or anything. At that time I said that I'll wait a bit to see what happens. I ended up cancelling that...
