Hey guys, stupid problem here.
After connecting my PC to my TV via an HDMI cable I found out afterwards that the normal audio no longer seems to work. I recall reading about this years ago, and I've scoured around trying to fix it, but it seems that the 3.5 mm jacks are actually somehow...
What? Is there a point here aside from you being a creep? Does it matter if the protagonist of a game is attractive? It's not like the same isn't true for men in games, and I don't see you commenting dismissively that they're just giant hunks of muscular man meat.
To answer some questions posed, yes I am certain my processor is the bottleneck. My native resolution is 1600 x 900, and I am of the belief that my GPU is more than adequate given that.
My budget is somewhat fluid, though I must put a very firm upward limit at $300 dollars, and that is quite...
I'm just not sure that I can trust an AMD processor to give me better gaming performance anymore.
Will an Ivy i3 actually be noticeably better than a Sandy i3?
My performance simply isn't where I'd like it to be at, and the culprit is quite clearly my processor. Additionally, it seems to have become somewhat unstable over time in that it no longer functions correctly at the clocks it used to, and I can no longer have the cache unlocked without my...
I've got an Athlon 2 x4 620, but I've overclocked and unlocked it to be functionally identical to an x4 955. I have no complaints. Might be about time to upgrade my video card, though.
World of Tanks is very very poorly optimized. So I'm not sure a new card will help much on that front. While playing the game my GPU is usually between 20 and 30 percent utilization while I'm getting ~20 FPS -_-
In the Wreckageverse 40 days = a few months. In my experience, a few generally refers to three or four.
Anyways, I think its pretty obvious that there are some supply issues with the GTX 580. I couldn't say why that is, though I have extreme doubts that it is because of a 'selling like...
Ignore everyone else and listen to me. Unless you plan on getting a new power supply (which you have expressed reluctance to do) I would not recommend either SLI or Crossfire.
The only exception I would make is 6850 Crossfire, as they each only take 1 6 pin connector. If you do not want to...
Sometimes I wonder if Wreckage actually believes what he posts.
Anyways, I'm going to agree with the general sentiment and say that its important to include games that might consistently perform better for one side or the other in reviews. I mean, that's the whole point. So we know where a...
I sincerely hope 3D doesn't take off. I find it very uncomfortable and it causes pain in my left eye if I view it for any extended period of time.
Maybe when there are no glasses.
Well, I can't get your links to work, so I don't know which specific 4850 that is, or its exact price. But, out of those three and having ~$100 I would have to recommend a 4850.
And you're allowed to think that, I'm not trying to take that away from you. I'm sorry if I've offended you.
He could go Intel, he could go AMD. Since both companies provide very good options for him I don't see that it really matters which he picks. However, my impression is that he would...
It's pretty obvious OP isn't really interested in Intel processors. There's no point in getting all bitter over it. The i5 750 and the 1055t are both very good processors and either would make an excellent choice. Since OP is interested in AMD, obviously the 1055t is the way to go for him...
While it's good to know that AA works for both vendors, I'm not sure who would actually turn it on while playing SC2. People with computers powerful enough that they can turn on something they'll never notice just because?
SC2 just isn't the kind of game where you have the time to admire all...
Good games that people actually want to play are a million times more important than hardware. Since we're talking about Nintendo, I don't think there is much threat from anyone anytime soon eclipsing them in the handheld market.
I can entirely see what Virge is getting at lumping the iPhone and iPod touch together. I'm pretty sure he's talking about from more of a gaming perspective, since they run the exact same apps in the exact same way. This would probably be because you compared iPhone sales to that of the PSP in a...
Based on the beta's performance on my PC, you could probably get away with spending a fair bit less than $1000 to play it with fairly close to maximum visual quality.
Dragon Age doesn't really use gpu accelerated PhysX in any meaningful way, so far as I know. I recall a quote by a Bioware dev who said something to the effect of there being a theoretical advantage with arrows, but that you really wouldn't notice it.
The real reason you might be seeing the...
I noticed you're ordering from NCIX.
I'm sure there's still probably a better price out there, but you can get a Powercolor PCS+ 5850 for $289 from DirectCanada.
If the supposed prices and performance for these parts are correct, that is unfortunate. It is doubly unfortunate that people will probably buy them regardless without considering this.
I was actually kind of intrigued until I found out the prices. I suppose I'll be waiting until the next...
I've looked at the comparison pictures posted in that thread.. and they look EXACTLY the same to me. I looked at them for several minutes, but I simply could not see any difference.
Is this like, a funny joke that I'm not party to? I'm confused.
I've never heard of Forsa, but that doesn't look like the reference cooler, so I'd imagine the temperature stays at a more sane level.
I don't know why you'd consider a GTS 250 if it's ~15% more expensive especially if they have the same amount of memory. They perform at basically the same...
I fail to understand why tweakboy is still allowed to make threads. He's either a gigantic troll or severely out of touch with reality, perhaps a combination of the two.
