LOL My ABIT NF7S always makes me mad when I change a setting in BIOS, upon reboot it says "DO NOT POWER OFF BIOS SAVING" or something like that. I remember in a noob moment thinking "OMG! Where is the BIOS Saving? I was looking on back of motherboard, in my case.
Heck, for a reference...
the 5700Ultra will get you great frame rates. I play UT2004, Americas Army with all settings maxxed. 4XAA, enabled 1026x764 85hz.
U can probably get one for $70-$100. Mine is autodetected at 540Mhz clock, 1.01Ghz memory!! not bad for midranger
Look at Neweggs refurbished page for steals and...
Chaintech VFN4 is a very stable board with good overclockability I am hearing. Very stable with no issues arising yet.
There is also an ECS board 939 that has hit the streets for $80. It is an Nforce4 Ultra
karmadharma, what kind of 3dmark01, 3dmark03, 3dmark05, pcmark04 scores are you getting with two 6800GT's in SLI?
PLEASE POST as I am considering SLI.
Nice setup BTW.
I gots me a dell Trinitron (SONY) from EBAY for $125+$55 shipping. Its a 21" It does 1024x768 @100hz. It is a beautiful monitor.
There is a guy who sells huge amounts of these sony trinitrons on ebay. I cant remember his username though, I bought over a year ago
FOr $250 you could get a...
DO they have little oompa-loompa's making these boards or what?
I mean it is the 21st century last time I checked. They can stamp out 200,000 chevy suburbans in no time, but they cant keep enough motherboards on the market? I think its a price fixing scam. I smell some dishonesty in the...
This is not a fair test either unless you include all factors of the test. BIOS, Board, CPU Stepping, Power Supply, And all that bizness. That is very unscientific and unreliable whichis why HannibalTheCannibal gives it two thumbs down.
BTW You see these new improved 600 chips running high...
I wouldnt base your selection onprice. I have heard that there are some cheap ones that work like krap. I have heard good things about the hauppauge line of tuners. I have not used one myself though.
I am not using the digital out. I am using a set of Z640 Logitechs. I have begun to notice the quality of regular voice reproduction is kinda sharp. I have to listen to three hours of Government lectures for a college course. I have also noticed that the gaming, music sound is not very clear...
My house has been burgled before. I did not recieve any money for my losses though.
I looked up the word "Burgled" in the dictionary, and was shocked that it actually means to be burglarized.
hmm
I have a system here with the Soundstorm onboard an ABIT NF7-S. I was wondering, this may be my HTPC. Would I benefit from buying a dedicated sound solution? Would my CPU utilization be lower because of more resources?
I am looking at the SB Creative Labs Audigy2 Gamer Limited Edition...
I think its a matter of pride. I think a 20% overclock is worth it and noticeable. anything more you squeeze out is a matter of bragging rights.
I just think its cool because it feels like you cheated AMD out of something. ie paying for 2.2ghz and getting 2.6. Getting one over on big brother...
I have been following these chip makers for 5+ years financially. I am a shareholder of AMD (www.ameritrade.com), and I read the press release every day as well as EVERY fiscal earnings report that comes out by either one for the last 16 quarters ending 1/05. I am the winner of the 2001...
I second that.
BTW It seems that this kid should be like an EAGames spokesperson or something, not a hardware enthusiast.
Why doesnt someone get those few guys who continuously break world record overclocks to help engineer better boards? I would probably buy a board designed by a world...
Intel= teh N3vv0rz
It will have to be a vapochilled 3.7EE lest the chip can handle 75C. Intel has hit a wall with clock speed because of heat. They are doing better with their flash memory sales. unless a breakthrough in process technology occurs, intel is fuqt. If they dont get it right with...
Well, I am sad to say I have had to delay my rig build to move off of the nforce2 platform. Looks like I will be on this ABIT NF7S for a while longer.
Right after I decided against the NEO4 platinum, I see that the ABIT FATAL1TY AN8 came out. I have heard mixed feelings about ABIT.
But...
" Ultra Bright LED's... A GODSEND for case Modders" LMAO Yeah right. A Godsend would be more like, hmmmm. Resetting the CMOS from "OUTSIDE" the case!! JEEEEZ I think this fataly guy got used up as marketing meat, Ultra Bright LED's OOOOOHHHHH
But that is by far the best LOOKING mobo...
That pic reminds me of Ace ventura where the UPS guy at beginning is kicking the krap out of a package. like playing soccer ball to deliver it to someone.
Dont do it. I overclocked my washing machine once all the way up to 165Volts, Its no longer with us. (R.I.P.). But it could wash a full load of clothes in 4.6543217 minutes.
