    AMD Radeon HD 6970 already benchmarked? Enough to beat GTX480 in Tesselation?

    Yeah, I also think people should not downplay the benefits of tesselations. Especially in the future. The ability to get awesome image quality of very low resolution textures is pretty awesome. Isn't the problem right now however is that we are stuck in between two methods of rendering a good...

    Here's what AMD didn't want us to see - HAWX 2 benchmark

    Has anyone confirmed what the City of the Future demo is running on? Is it running on mid level hardware? Or something crazy like dual, triple GTX480's? I'm at a toss up right now too and will be looking to get either a GTX460 or HD6850 within the next couple of weeks. Nvidia has superior...

    Want to run WOW at full settings...

    Yeah, it seems that WoW is quite cpu intensive so you might consider spending a little more on this combo set: http://www.newegg.com/Product/ComboB...t=Combo.432236 Better cpu, ram, case, and power supply for less than $100 more. Then just get an Radeon 5770 or any last generation DX10 mid...

    Best USB TV Tuner for Windows 7/Vista?

    Hmm, that's funny. I have the thing and having the opposite issue. ATI MMC doesn't work with crap for me and I've long uninstalled it. Windows media center works great for digital signal. GP-PVR also works awesome.

    9700 Pro AGP vs 5600 FX 256

    I've had both, and yes the 9700pro is much faster. Heck, if I remember right even the 9600 pro is faster than the fx5600.

    ATI X1900XT vs 8800 GT

    It's definately noticably better. You gain about two resolutions level or more in newer games. Like if you're stuck at 1280x800, now you can handle 1680x1050. I just did the same upgrade two weeks ago. I'd say it's worth it, I sold my x1900xt for $60 and got a used 8800gt for $90. Definately...

    How does a GeForce 7100 compare to a FX 5900?

    Maybe in true DX9 games where both would perform horribly and it'll be the difference between 5fps and 10fps. In general, no. Anything the fx5900 can run it should run better just because it was an ex-high end. Low end video cards haven't really made much of a head way in terms of performance...

    Gears of War for PC.

    Yeah, I'm pretty sure it does. However, I was wondering if there's a way to get past this at all. I didn't anticipate these large games when I partitioned my hard drive a few years ago so my C drive is pretty much as empty as it can get and it still won't work. Looking at the files inside the...

    Gears of War for PC.

    Is there a way to install this game manually w/o the installer? It says it requires 7+gb free on the C drive and I just don't have that much. I partition my hard drives so C is mainly just for windows and I use my others for games. It's annoying that it isn't letting me install it because my C...

    will 8800gts play CS:S @ max @ 1680x1050?

    You should be able to...because my x1900xt can. My frames are pretty much 90% of the time at 60fps and may take dips down to 40-50 when there's like a billion flashes/smoke grenades going off.

    SM3 card comparable to x850pro?

    Directly comparable would probably be the Geforce 6800gt.

    Bioshock

    You'll do fine, my x1900xt runs it great at 1440x900 with max settings. Typically ranges from 30-60fps, mostly at around 45fps.

    CALLING OUT: X1900 owners who play CS:S

    For you spitz10, it might just be the cpu. In terms of max fps in games, I didn't notice much. But going from my a64 3500 to my e4300 gave me a huge bump in minimum fps. My card is an x1900xt btw. Even then at 1680x1050 w/ 4xaa 16af there's still some drops to like 40fps during heavy fire...

    I am soooo confused

    It's not brand loyalty guys, I know a few people that are still scared to death of ATI cards for some damn reason. I guess their bad experiences in the past still left a sour taste in their mouth? (Past as in 7000/8500 series). It's kinda weird but I guess it's somewhat understandable.

    I am soooo confused

    You should get http://www.newegg.com/Product/...x?Item=N82E16814130056 instead. The 7900gs is quite a bit better and it can overclock pretty well.

    KWorld PVR-TV 305U Analog TV Tuner FAR (30.00 MIR) from Fry's.com

    Yeah, KWorld rebates is pretty stupid. I guess you HAVE to go online and apply for the rebate in order to get a number for it...which was not mentioned in the actual rebate form at all. When I called, the lady said w/o the # the rebate won't count...Sigh, this is for their last FAR tv tuner btw.

    2GB (2x1GB) Corsair XMS DDR2 667mhz $69

    The one with black heatsink is only $72 shipped! What do you think guys, would prices continue to plumet? I can't use ddr2 yet, but if this is as low as it'll get, I might as well buy before my summer upgrade.

    S.T.A.L.K.E.R has gone gold

    1440x900 w/o aa/af? Nah, 8800gts is overkill with this game I'd assume. As with the screenshots and such, I don't think this game takes any more horsepower than HL2 episode 1 (cuz of the possible hdr?).

    19" Norcent widescreen LCD monitor $149.99 or $100 (looks like $100 is dead now)

    Yeah, same story here. They included a packing slip for my free boombox and yet none with my monitor. I tried calling them and they said they can fax one to me, sadly I don't have a fax. The guy then told me to wait till Monday and get in touch with their reciept department or something and...

    19" Norcent widescreen LCD monitor $149.99 or $100 (looks like $100 is dead now)

    For those who've gotten there's and haven't tried, I just called in to apply one of the $20 off coupons floating around on the other deal forums and it worked like a charm. So I got a free mp3 boombox thing and $20 off. Definately a kick ass deal already w/o the rebate.

    black and white tv out

    I dunno, same issue seems to happen on my older computer with a gf4 ti4200 as well. To fix it then, I'd have to test and install several driver versions to get it to work. Unfortunately, the 6150 is still relatively new, so only the newer drivers work with it. It still doesn't make sense why...

    black and white tv out

    Not sure why, but my laptop using nvidia 6150go with svideo out using an svideo-rca adapter only shows up as black and white on my tv. I've messed with pal/ntsc settings and that doesn't affect anything. If I set it to composite out, then it flickers for a moment showing color, but then stops...

    First DX10 Crysis Benchmarks Appear

    I probably would compare it to the radeon 9700 right now, the first good dx9 card. Since this benchmark is about what the 9700pro got for Far Cry right? Eventhough it kicked ass in any dx8 game, it had to run at around 1024-1280 res for Far Cry w/o AA/AF as well.

    Those with Steam Accounts

    lol, are the steam servers on the west coast or something? 80+mph winds have cause a lot of power outages around here and my cable was out until a few hours ago. When I got internet back, I find steam doesn't work.

    best 22" widescreen monitor

    Yeah, same here, I love my westinghouse. I love all the inputs and the p-i-p feature so I can watch tv from my vcr while surfing net at the same time. Too bad it doesn't have a remote though, switching settings by buttons on the back is a little annoying.

    x800 128mb vs x700 pro 256mb

    Yeah, most benches I see places the x700pro about the same as the 9800pro...even losing in higher res/aa+af. Thus its 128bit bus will limit it more than the x800's 128mb ram.
  36. B

    x800 128mb vs x700 pro 256mb

    I doubt the ram will really limit it as the x700pro would be quite a bit slower. The x700pro with it's 128bit bus even loses to the 9800pro sometime. The x800 should easily beat it.

    AGP video card rec to replace onboard 4mb card

    Just out of curiousity, but what's his cpu. I'd assume that slow video can often be because of a slow cpu/lack of ram rather than video. WMP visualizations kill my p3 laptop and its 4mb onboard...but it can run videos fine full screen.

    Integrated video (VIA VT8235~ish) or TNT2 with 16mb of ram?

    This is for like athlon series right? I would actually say the tnt2 is better since basically only the nforce and above igps were better. The onboard on an nforce was what, an mx440 which was slower than the actual mx440 which is tied with a fast geforce 2 which is 1 or 2 generations above a...
