    Looking for mid-range SLI gfx cards for 3 monitors

    Having games span 3 monitors isn't a make-or-break, and I'm fine with only two screens. That said, I will look into your suggestion of the GTX 260 and keep my 8600. While we're on the subject, how does the mobo/CPU look? not obsolete yet I hope, although I have been eying the i7..

    Looking for mid-range SLI gfx cards for 3 monitors

    It's fine if I can't run SLI. What I am curious about is how games will utilize two mismatched graphics cards. I took HL2 out for a test spin a couple weeks ago and it spans both my monitors (annoyingly, since the crosshair was right between the monitors) on the single card. I would presume that...

    Looking for mid-range SLI gfx cards for 3 monitors

    AstroManLuca, WHOA! just kidding, totally meant 8600. So not new but not old either. I'm running an Intel Core2Quad at 2.1GHz (not sure of the family - if anyone knows of a CPU-Z type program for Linux, let me know) and an eVGA 122-CK-NF68. My mom does want this machine back if I build...

    Looking for mid-range SLI gfx cards for 3 monitors

    Hi all, As a poor, starving college student, I've been out of the loop on the hardware market for some time now. Right now I am sporting a dual screen setup with a single GeForce 8600 GTS. Pretty new at the time, and a little old now. But thanks to Uncle Sam, I have a little more cash to...

    Multiple monitors + notebook?

    Hi all, Right now I've got a 17" NEC monitor plugged into the docking station on my Sony VAIO SZ110 notebook, and I'm running dual screens on Fedora 8 -- one external monitor, the other the screen of the actual notebook. I'm moving from a dorm on-campus (I'm a starving college student) to...

    Classical Music: Why don't you listen?

    I enjoy my classical -- but also the rock and other stuff. Ska/punk do it for me as well as Beethoven's Moonlight Sonata. Personally, I prefer piano music to anything else instrumental, but that's only because I've played classical piano for 8 years or so. That's not to say that I won't...

    Overheating on Asus A8N32?

    WOW! The new BIOS makes a dramatic change. Before the new BIOS, I was idling at about 43 degrees. Now, 35 is my low and my mean is 37! I knew that the temps had to be okay -- air tests and extra hole mods and all -- so I was just waiting for ASUS to release the fix for the temp probe.

    Overheating on Asus A8N32?

    I think everyone with an A8N32 has this problem. The temp sensor is right by the southbridge, and usually the graphics card just dumps heat onto it. Really, it's not that much to worry about. As long as it runs stable it should be okay.

    Duke lacrosse case

    I don't think it really matters to people here, but I play lacrosse and this scandal has rocked the community. Duke was supposed to be in the top 4, but their program has been ruined. It sucks because even if the investigation ceases with nothing found (which it will -- the DNA tests proved...

    Is it unsafe to rest tower on a carpeted floor?

    WRONG! Tasers can send 400,000 (! -- not factorial) volts. You don't die (unless you've got a pacemaker, but that's a whole different story). What kills you is CURRENT: the flow of electricity through your body. The more electricity flowing through your body, the higher probability of death...

    Yeah, I don't want to put a hole in my beloved P180. But I do! Heh. It seems like a fun project to try, unless you completely fubar it.

    beatin the heat in my P180

    Wow, that's great! I have the same setup as you do -- minus the graphics card, I've got 2 6800GSs in SLI -- and my idle temp with no overclock is 45C. (My maximum overclock is 2.64 -- and it idles around 49 or so) This board is hot! I may attempt that, but I don't have a hole saw (let alone a...

    About time and absolute zero.

    Yellow IS absolute. The color yellow is the frequency at which light is emitted after bouncing off a particular surface. That's a moot point, though, I guess. "Vertical" is a relative perspective, yes, but if you change your axes of reference (for instance, if you're making a force diagram of a...

    Inverted MB with heatpipe causing high temps

    I don't know about you, but my mobo (A8N32-SLI) is rightside-up and Speedfan reports my mobo temp at 45C. I honestly think that that heatpipe is driving all my temperatures up. I don't have any money to try removing the heatpipe and using a passive (or even an active) chipset cooler, so if you...

    Why dont people seem to not like ULTRA products

    Great, I broke my NV5.

    You are my hero. If I was homosexual or you were a woman, I would kiss you. Though, $8 for shipping is 0.0 If there's a demand for these, I guess they can do that.

    Great, I broke my NV5.

    I have two GeForce 6800GSs running in SLI. There is space between two of them for my sound card. The card's fan was vibrating on top of the sound card, so I used my trusty Dremel to try to sand it down to stop vibrating. Now the fan won't spin up (or even spin when you push it with your...

    About time and absolute zero.

    By STNG you mean Super Teenage Ninja Turtles? Teehee If time suddenly stopped, everything would be frozen in its last state. You can see things only because the light (as a wave, not a particle -- but it probably doesn't make a difference) is absorbed by the surfaces it bounces off of...

    About time and absolute zero.

    If time freezes, how would you know you could not see? There's the hole in that argument. :D EDIT: In all seriousness, it takes work (aka energy) to create a thought, or even to fire a neural impulse. Therefore, if time could "freeze" in the sense that everything has stopped (which it...

    About time and absolute zero.

    As that link mentioned, even at absolute zero there is zero-point energy (E=mc^2 -- if something has mass, it has energy). If something has potential energy, it has the ability to do work and therefore the ability to move. As for time.. This is off the subject a bit, but I found it pretty...

    RAM and MemTest86

    I lied to them on the RMA request -- what are they going to do, check it and send it back to me? I don't think so, especially since I did the cross-ship thing (they send it to me without waiting to receive from me) I'm not too worried

    RAM and MemTest86

    I was OCing my computer and wanted to test my RAM with MemTest86. I boot it up, and I notice that I'm missing a byte: the program reports that I have 1023 bytes, instead of 1024 (1GB). As soon as test 6 occurs, it fails immediately. I undid my OC and tested it with SPD specifications, and it...

    Does the A8N32-SLI naturally run hot?

    So I figured out a new culprit and am working to rectify the situation: I'm running 2xGeforce 6800GS in SLI. The southbridge heatsink is directly under the top video card. I'm gonna guess that the heat radiating from the top card is making the liquid in the heatpipe vaporize faster, so less...

    Does the A8N32-SLI naturally run hot?

    Okay, after OCing to 240x11 the maximum temperature is something like 55C. w00t! It's not much more than at stock load, so I guess it's fine.

    Does the A8N32-SLI naturally run hot?

    I did plan on OCing D: Again, it's interesting because my old board was OCed (X2 4200+ to 240MHz x11) and it ran cooler. Go figure.
