    i7 at 4.1 : what video card(s) should I pair with it?

    2 or 3 480's or 580's will do the trick. I have a 4GHz i7 as well, 3 GTX480's and I'm very happy with the result. I game at 2560x1600 though.. 1920x1200, 2 5(4)80 in SLI will suffice for all games, with AA.

    why i7 frequency changing in load?

    I have speedstep off but C1E enabled. My CPU throttles down from 4GHz to 3GHz when there is no action. It comes back at 4GHz as soon as I move the mouse :)

    full size KB that has laptop-like feel

    Go with Logitech Illuminated, it's great. Doesn't stick and it's illuminated with a nice white light, non-intrusive and non eye fatiguing. Keys feel great, it can take abuse (I have a little baby girl so I know abuse :) ). I wouldn't change this keyboard for any other right now. I don't know if...

    SSDs. Fast, but not THAT fast. :(

    It's been a year since I am using the SSD's, but as many said, I don't ever want to return to mechanical drives for OS & Games. I upgraded the machine from 2 WD Raptor X in RAID0 to 2 OCZ Vertex 120GB in RAID0. The difference is there... not as much in boot times, but in loading times. And the...

    Mouse settings - DPI and Windows pointer speed

    Even if the RAT7 and Mamba use the same sensor, they are very different beasts. While the RAT7 works fine with soft cloth surfaces, the Mamba is unstable unless a hard pad is used. Bunny, even if I know you are right and I said I am using the RAT7 at 2400dpi & 6th notch, I still like fast mice...

    Mouse settings - DPI and Windows pointer speed

    @Xplaced, even though I have used 5600dpi and the 3rd notch for years, right now I am playing at 2400dpi and 6th notch. It took some time getting used to and I still believe 5600dpi and 3rd notch was smoother; I guess I gave up on that 1:1 thing and wanted to try the non-interpolated mode. It's...

    R.a.t. 7

    I feel no acceleration with the RAT7, I believe the software has the acceleration turned off by default and no option to enable it. It does lack profile auto switching, perhaps it will be included at some point. It shouldn't be hard to implement and I am sure MadCatz will listen to us, the users...

    R.a.t. 7

    I had the Mamba, spilled some Cola on it, buttons became very sticky and pressing the left click was a pain so I had to switch. I have bought the G700 from Logitech, it's a good piece of hardware, the tracking is good, ergonomics are good but the one thing I didn't like was the plastic quality...

    Get 3 GTX 480s or wait for 2 4GB 5970s??

    Waiting for EK waterblocks to become available and I will get a Tri-SLI GTX480 setup. Things will get better with new drivers, I am sure of that. I have a Enermax Revolution 85+ 1250W PSU, I think it will handle the GTX480 Tri-SLI setup just fine.

    3D Gaming

    You can try the low cost version, 3D Vision Discovery available from Nvidia. All you need is an Nvidia card newer than 8 series and 3D anaglyph glasses (red-cyan) available everywhere. The effect is very nice and I love it. I believe the active shutter technology is even better... at least color...

    I bought two 5870s today after reading the GTX 480 reviews yesterday

    Good choice and under normal circumstances I would also get 2 5870 and CF them... but I will get 3 GTX480 when they appear, watercool and Tri-SLI them. I'm in love with 3D Vision, that keeps me away from ATI. I also think performance will get better on the GTX480, drivers used in reviews were...

    What can one do with a 12-core Opteron?

    What do you mean overkill? There's no such thing as overkill... the more, the better, as long as you can afford it. 4 cores were overkill as well one year ago, now they are the norm and we look towards 6-8 cores. Soon the software will catch up and will put all those cores to work, even when...

    Suggest a quiet keyboard

    I wasn't aware of the fact that there are gaming keyboards with cherry brown-axis. I thought that was a typing keyboard, not a gaming one. By gaming I mean simple, easy to use, not very expensive so you can abuse it when you loose. Back-lighting is also something I want in a gaming keyboard, but...

    Are Sound Cards worth it?

    Hardware accelerated sound means that the sound card driver pass the sound effects processing directly to the sound card, therefore offloading the CPU. Not having hardware accelerated sound means that the sound card driver will pass the effects processing to the CPU, it will calculate the...

    Are Sound Cards worth it?

    On-board is better than what it used to be some time ago, but it's very low to low quality-wise. You will get a better sound from a dedicated sound card. But those take you only to medium quality. The best solution with PC audio is a good dedicated sound card that's only used for transport to an...

    What key blocking issues? I've never had that and I am using the Illuminated for more than a year now. It's the type of keyboard that you like to type on, you will forget about copy-paste and just go typing :) Buy it and don't look back, I've been using most of the higher grade gaming keyboards...

    Great, my eyefinity setup gets me nauseous

    Play FC2 on a 30" and nvidia's 3D Vision, even the cheap Discovery one. 100% immersion, no nausea, the image has depth, looks fantastic and the game just sucks you in.

    Where are the damn Fermi reviews already!?

    What's the hype with Eyefinity? Are there that many multi monitor users out there? I have a single 30" and I don't see myself gaming on more than that. I wouldn't like the bezels cutting the image. I see 3D Vision as a much nicer tech. I don't know why, but when enabled, the monitor looks much...

    Your very own first Video Card, post here!

    My whole history: First video card was a Cirrus Logic with less than 1Mb vram, in 1991, on a 386. Then a S3 Virge D2X 4Mb on a 486. Then a TNT2 on a 586 I believe. 4200Ti on Athlon 1700+ 6600GT on AMD 4200 X2 7900GTX on Intel X6800 ES 7900GTX x 2, same X6800 ES 7900GX2 x 2 on C2Q x6700...

    Best 30" monitor?

    I have a Dell 3008WFP and I am very happy with it. I had the 3007WFP-HC before and that was a good monitor too, just that it didn't have the internal image scaler. I don't think there's a bad 30" monitor, all have been created as flagships and use the best tech the manufacturer had access to at...

    Just ran into the weirdest thing. Insufficient power message

    The PSU that blew up on me was a Tagan 1100W unit. It was stressed enough, for one year with constant load over 700W. Back then I used to have a Single Stage cooling unit in the belly of a LianLi V2000 case. CPU was a HOT QX6700, Intel Confidential, overclocked at 4.2-4.4; I eventually took it...

    High DPI mice not as useless as most say?

    I'm not trying to justify my purchase, again, I will pay more than $300 right now for a mouse with more than 10k dpi. I simply don't like how the mouse feels on 3200 / 6th notch, no matter the 0 interpolation. To my hand, the interpolation feels better, so, 5600 / 3rd notch for me. It's what...

    High DPI mice not as useless as most say?

    @ben90: I know, I've been reading about it and it seems it's true. 6th notch is indeed 1:1; but I have also been reading that this 1:1 mouse ratio is a thing of Windows XP, where mouse DPI/sensitivity ratio is calculated in such a way that ratios other than 1:1 give odd results. I have never had...

    Nvidia Geforce GTX 295 or ATI Radeon HD 5970?

    5970 wins every benchmark and has DX11. If ultimate performance is your aim, get it. You are also future proof with DX11. 3D Vision, even the cheap version, with the red-blue glasses is very nice. I use the cheap one, just because I don't want to switch to a smaller monitor. Having the sense of...

    High DPI mice not as useless as most say?

    @Ph0b0s: They sure will come out with 11k DPI mice and I will be one of the first to get one. That would bring me colser to my goal, very high DPI and 1st notch in Windows sensitivity. As I said in my previous post, I don't see any downside to turning down the Windows sensitivity and turning up...

    High DPI mice not as useless as most say?

    I don't know about you, but I have a smoother mouse movement on higher DPI and lower windows sensitivity. Is there a Microsoft technical paper that documents the 6th notch? I'd like to see it.

    High DPI mice not as useless as most say?

    I can say it's not placebo. I have a 30" 2560x1600 monitor. I use the mouse (Razer Mamba) at 5600dpi, windows sensitivity at 3 notches. Lower than that, it will be too slow for me. Any faster would be uncontrollable. To move the mouse 1 inch and get X amount of movement on the screen, I can set...

    What tier of GPU is necessary to power a 24" LCD, for modern games with high detail?

    I do not support proprietary features. I'm all for OpenCL physics, but until then, Nvidia can play however they want with Physx. Remember, they paid for Ageia, so it's Nvidia's right to ask money from who wants to use Physx; I don't see anything wrong with that. Also, the devs are not "forced"...

    What tier of GPU is necessary to power a 24" LCD, for modern games with high detail?

    If you want futureproof, go with the ATI 5850/5870. It's the best you can buy right now, if you can find them available for sale. These are DX11 cards that will get you through some future DX11 games as well. Unfortunately, I can't recommend anything Nvidia right now, I wish I could (I'm biased...

    Sound Card Recommendation for mostly gaming & a little music

    Auzentech is better for gaming. I suggest Auzentech Forte, very good card for the money. Asus is better suited for music and movies. It will game too, but if gaming is the main purpose, Auzen will serve you better. A good Asus card is the D2X. Even better, Essence ST(X). You will need better...

    Stuck choosing between five 30" monitors

    I've had the 3007WFP-HC and now I have the 3008WFP. While the 3008 is better overall, because of the price, I would not recommend it unless you need the extra inputs or the internal scaler. When the scaler is in use, you will have some input lag. For gaming, get the 3007WFP-HC. I was very...

    Fermi needs A3 silicon? Launch in Q1 2010

    I too want to see what Fermi looks like in gaming. I need to upgrade the 285's and I want to see Nvidia's effort before I decide. I hope, if the cards launch in Feb/March, we will see benchmarks this year, before Christmas.

    Sound Cards

    Yeah, for digital, go with an X-Fi. You can't go wrong with it since the card won't be responsible for the audio quality, but the receiver.
