    Canon 100-300 or 55-250 IS?

    I have the 55-250 IS and it is not ideal for sports. If this is all that's in your price range I suggest renting the lens first. Most local shops (ma & pa joints) also rent glass out. I don't know if this glass will do well with hokey, sure the ice is bright but are the players faces. I'm just...

    Canon 100-300 or 55-250 IS?

    If its sports your shooting, and it's indoors, then you will need IS. That being said - I have the 55-240 IS and it's not intended for low-light shooting. Your shots will be blurry. It's not fast glass as they say, it's still faster than the 100-300 and has IS which helps a little. If you...

    I could use some help with my Crossfire :S

    3D mark is the easiest and most convienant way to manually see* if XfireX is enabled. It gives a visual output of frames per second, as well as a total score. Why on earth would you not use such a convienant tool? It even gives you a CPU independant score that negates any CPU bottleneck from the...

    Will crossfire work on nvidia mobo's ??

    From Wikipedia: The xDNA technology is a technology designed by Diamond Multimedia, allowing motherboards which are not certified for ATI CrossFire (for instance, nForce 500/600 series motherboards designed by NVIDIA) to install multiple ATI Radeon video cards (up to four) as a CrossFire...

    Will crossfire work on nvidia mobo's ??

    Diamond Vid Cards will do Xfire on an NVIDIA mobo, as long as there are two x16 PCIe. Though it would technicaly be SLI even though their ATI cards. Check out xDNA from Diamond.

    I could use some help with my Crossfire :S

    had same prob... and there is no f'ing info on XfireX anywhere. ATI really needs to put together some kinda FAQ on Xfire. This is the only way I know to install Xfire that both cards work. -From a driver free OS - use ATI uninstaller that comes with their drivers 1. Install first card...

    Samsung announces 2 new LCD displays at MacWorld

    The only instance dynamic backlighting could improve image quality would be with an LED matrix backlight. Whereas a dark part of an image on a portion of the screen can be dynamically controlled with individual LEDs - as opposed to the entire CCFL backlight.

    Samsung announces 2 new LCD displays at MacWorld

    I have the 245BW with 3000:1 "dynamic" contrast ratio. Which essentially controls the backlighting. In turn making anything displayed on a black background look dull and flat. I whole-heartedly agree with n7 on the panel quality issue. However, don't give up yet on non TN displays. As we move...

    AMD 3750 AGP

    You can pick up an HD2600 Pro AGP for under 100$ USD at Newegg I needed a quick replacement for my AGP and picked up a VisionTek HD2600 Pro for ~100$. Definatly a step down from the X1950 XT, however, I needed to be rid of the AGP ball and chain that was sucking my wallet and time dry.

    OCing C2D with Clockgen

    I find clockgen usefull for determining the max OC that is windows stable without having to reboot 100 times. Another great tool is Memset, which allows the setting of your RAMs timings in windows. Concerning the issue with having "software" control your hardware. My solution is to simply set...

    Troubleshooting Choppy Video Playback

    Use QT alternative. You can save to disk, or stream. Hate DRM crap. I have a E6600 at 3.4 and still run 12-50% CPU usage, and that's with a HD2600 pro. I firmly believe that vid cards have next to no effect on rendering HD video, and the process is completly CPU bound. I think I'll just...

    AVIVO without CCC?

    The screen flash at startup is among a number of reasons why I refuse to use CCC. As for the ATI Tray Tools I could not find the option to use AVIVO's video recode. And even though AVIVO is a 100% software based transcoder, it does not have a stand alone launcher.

    AVIVO without CCC?

    The GUI takes 5 secs to load. However, the startup entry CLI.exe takes just as long to load as the old CCC did, thus bogging down startup. It's a nice trick on ATI's part, shifting the load time from the GUI to a stealthed startup service. I know that I can disable the startup entry, but...

    AVIVO without CCC?

    Wow this is a hard topic to find any info on. I am trying to get AVIVO to run without Catalyst, since it is useless bloatware IMO. I was wondering if anyone had an idea how to start the AVIVO utility independantly of CCC? Thanks guys for any help here.

    So I was changing some settings in ATI tray tools...

    Your video card crashed. It happens, so don't get to excited about it. When you mess with stock setting (I'm not saying you shouldn't - by all means tweak!) you take the hardware out of it's normal operating peramiters. Also you are playing a demo. In my experiance demo's of games are...

    OCZ XTC RAM Cooler and DDR3

    they do add elegance to the whole thing I agree. Thank You for the response tylerdustin2008. The cooler arrived yesterday and I finally got around to looking at it. Seems it will fit just fine, especially if it goes in a P5k.There the same physical layout as the P5K3 after all. Did you...

    For the H20 Guru's

    Good to see you are doing some research instead of jumping on some watered down ,HAH, kit. It took me awhile to finally decide on my swiftech setup, and I am happy for it. There are plenty of supposed "kits" out there that only require you to attach a waterblock with everything else...

    Zalman CNPS7000B-ALCu vs. Arctic Cooling Freezer Pro

    The zalman is silent... unless you have no case fans... on low, and will out perform the Artic at the same speed. It will also cool your surrounding mobo components.

    OCZ XTC RAM Cooler and DDR3

    In all the documentation I have found there is no mention of DDR3 compatibility for this cooler. However, DDR3 is the same physical spec IIRC with the only difference being the notch location. It should fit...But will it? Any one have experiance with this setup and DDR3? Or, have any...

    X38 will be out in early September

    The chipset also supports dual full-speed PCIe x16 slots for ATI CrossFire multi-GPU technology. Intel guidance does not show any indication of support for NVIDIA's SLI Technology. They'll probably change this just like the ddr2 support. I might hold off for one of these. Intel would...

    What's My North Bridge Temp

    IR thermometers are terrible inaccurate, especially the cheaper models. Although they are the best method for aquiring the temps of your equiptment. Make sure you calibrate them against a standard thermometer, one you know to be accurate. I have a 30$ IR thermo that is consistanly -14F...

    Anything other than ATITool to check for artifacts

    ATI Tray Tools also has a built in artifact scanner. I could never get Tray Tools to pick up any though ATI Tool would only pick up artifacts untill my 1950xt got real hot. Best way to test, in my opinion, is with playing your favorite game. And simply skip all the synthetic tests.

    E6850 Lapping-How's the ihs on yours? Concave or reasonably flat?

    Another method thats a little more involed, but more difinitive then the razor trick, is to place a small droplet of water on the IHS and place a pane of glass/mirror onto it. If the IHS sticks then the surface is flat. If there is no cohesion then you should lap. Hope that helps.

    Average temp of Socket 478 cpu

    Pretty normal temps for having stock cooling. IIRC those temps are pretty much inline with my ol' 2gig celly. If you are concerned though buy a cheap aftermarket cooler, those ole' stock 478 are worse then the cheapest aftermarket.
