I got a very awesome b-day gift in the form of an HD5870, however recently I have been having issues on boot up. On windows start my computer only shows a quarter of the screen. To be specific the upper left hand corner. Usually the problem can be fixed with a reboot and the computer will run...
Hi Folks,
I am contemplating moving my old Dell Dimension 4700 to an Antec NSK4480 computer case that has been collecting dust. But before I do that, can anyone tell me if this is actually feasible? Basically, my main concern is the motherboard. I will be using the Earthwatts 380W power...
Hi Guys,
During gaming my harddrive is constantly swapping and being accessed, so much so that it bogs down my entire computer. I maybe completely off base, but this didnt occur until after I upgraded my video card. Which leads me to ask, do you guys think this is due to a lack of system...
Theres a deal going on at Fry's for a EVGA 7900GS KO 256MB PCI-E ~ $119 AR.
A much better upgrade and a significant boost in performance imo.
Meh. Hopefully I'm not breaking any rules, but here is the link to the deal.

Their lack of contact information on the website doesn't exactly instill confidence. Their forum is a broken link and their so called tech support redirects to the AMD/ATI website. =/
I emailed Connect3d this past Sunday night/Monday morning about getting an RMA for my video card.... However, I have yet to receive a response from them. They are either slow to process my request or they are out right ignoring me. :(
Unfortunately, they do not have a customer service phone...
Thanks guys, that sounds like sound advice. I really do appreciate it. I was unclear about how well my rig has aged, thanks for the insight.
I have been gaming over the weekend and thus far the 7950GT is running like a champ... great stability and low temps.
Performace is like night and...
Thanks for the heads up tuteja. I think I'll take your advice and wait until the end of April. I thought the 7950GT would be a good match ($50 more over the X1950PRO). Stuck my friend's 7950GT into my system and it ran fine idle and seems to be holding up well under stress. Read they are much...
Sweet! Thanks for the reply Bass.
Do you guys think the X1950Pro (as opposed to GT) would be considered overkill? Or if it is even possible with my PSU?
I mostly lurk the forums, but I have learned much from here. :)
Hi guys,
I'm not the most computer savvy, so bear with me. Although I think I know more than the avg joe.
My 6600GT PCI-E recently died on me (RIP) and now I'm looking for a replacement. I want to maximize performance, but I don't want to spend a ton of cash on a card that will only get...
Sorry for the noob question, but I haven't been in the video card scene for the longest time. What does ATI/AMD plan on offering in the midrange? 8600GT/GTS equalvalent?
Monarch is awesome for those living in California. No Taxes! :D
I have ordered from them on numerous occasions and they have been great every single time, I wouldn't worry.
From a performance aspect, obviously two 6800U runningin SLi will out perform a single X850XT.
This is of course assuming money is not an object. Seeing that you are willing to spend upwards of $500 per card, I don't see whats to stop you.
Hi guys,
Sorry for the noob question, but what is the Intel equivalent to the A64 3000+?
I guess what I am asking is, would it be a big/significant upgrade from a p4 2.66ghz I have right now.
And I do game more than the average person. (HL2, WOW, Battlefield, etc.)
Thanks for the reply.
I can live with a little noise, but I have heard some horror stories in terms of fan noise. I am thinking it was only a major problem with the cards before the current revision.
Hi guys,
I was wondering if anyone can tell me if the fan noise level has improved with the new updated fan. Or has it actually gotten worse? I have done a search, but I can't tell which version people are referring to.
I have read the firing squad round up...
I would like to hear a reply from MSI 6600GT owners as well.
While I am not sure this applies to the APG version, I want to
make sure this isn't a prevailing problem before I place my order.
