Hypothetical Question

EVGA requires you to scan or send your invoice in for RMA or Step Ups. Both programs require you to be the original owner as well, the invoice name needs to match the name of the requesting party.

That sure is amazing then, that there can be such a disparity between users opinions on the matter of ghosting. I was hoping it was settings related to help people out, but if DVI is DVI then it all boils down to YMMV I guess. My first foray into LCDs, so I am surely no expert here. I concur...

One7 The easiest way is to call the customer care center. Tell them you have a monitor on the way, and it dropped in price since you purchased it. Advise them that if they cannot credit you the difference you will be returning your monitor and reordering. That would cost them more than the...

Raise your hand if you think Dell is s***

I just got a Dell for the first time, and have built 2 systems previously. I got an incredible deal on a XPS refurb that included a 550 dollar PCI-Express video card and a bevy of other parts that made it impossible to pass up. So far I am extremely impressed, and certainly disagree with the...

6800GT or 800xt and from which company

Sparky, I am only offering my advice as personal experience. Having seen both an X800XT and a 6800Ultra on the same PC playing the same games, to my eyes the ATI looked better in just about every application. YMMV of course!

6800GT or 800xt and from which company

The X800XT has similar performance to the 6800Ultra. Assuming you overclock the x800xt and the 6800GT, I believe you will be happier with the X800XT's image quality. However, the 6800GT is cheaper than either I believe, and darn close in performance. If it was my dollar, it would be the Ati...

You take the card back and RMA it yourself, using whatever "method of purchase" you desire when they ask. While it's hard for you to swallow since the card was working when sent, it's harder for the trader to swallow who lost their X800XT in exchange for a paperweight...lol. I like the advice...

Yes I did read Zebos ram thread. But remember, this is a P4 based system which uses different memory controllers than the A64. Also, finding even "Value Ram" DDR2 in PC2-4200 for 200 shipped is a reasonable price, so finding their "super" ram at the same price is what made it a good deal. If the...
