  1. R9 Fury Cards go on sale...and gone

    Of course, I basically started the thread to voice my disappointment because I would have liked the chance to order one. I wonder how long we'll need to wait to see the "next wave", and then past that, I wonder how long before the price comes back down to MSRP.
  2. R9 Fury Cards go on sale...and gone

    I'm going to take a wild guess that they didn't exactly ship a lot of volume with this launch. That, or the demand for $650 video cards is significantly higher than I expected.
  3. R9 Fury Cards go on sale...and gone

    Looks like Newegg had them for about maybe a grand total of 5 minutes. All models sold out, looks like some early adopter taxes have been applied too. Didn't matter much apparently, as noted, they're all sold out already.
  4. Catalyst 15.6b Batman Arkham Knight optimizations

    By the way, for the people having issues, I have an i7-3770k with 16 gig of RAM and a 290X in uber mode with the latest AMD beta driver (released yesterday), and the game runs like a champ for me. That being said, of course I didn't enable the NVIDIA features in the graphics options. Just...
  5. R9 290X and R9 290 Owners Noise Discussion (Most Important Question)

    Got my 290X in today. Going to start off in uber mode and see if I can work my way down from there. Will definitely report in on my "real world" experience later.
  6. GTX780 features vs R9 290 series?

    Well, I certainly didn't expect the R9 290 to show up with an insanely loud fan. I think I'll wait a couple of weeks to see what the OEM's come up with, see what the new 780 Ti does to the market, and then decide between the R9 290 and the GTX 780.
  7. GTX780 features vs R9 290 series?

    Follow up to my own question, have we seen any benchmarks showing a benefit specific to 4 gig of memory verses 3 gig on the cards?
  8. GTX780 features vs R9 290 series?

    I'm strongly considering upgrading to either a R9 290 or a R9 290X. I will admit I am a bit of an AMD fan, but I'm also trying to look at the best value and so I'm also considering the GTX 780. Of course "best value" is a little crazy in this price catergory...I digress. I re-read Anandtech's...
  9. R9 290x availability

    Yeah, I'm also interested in a 290/290X (obviously the 290 isn't out yet). No luck finding either in the US for myself so far. I know the AIB versions will have better coolers, but I'm ok with stock too. But first someone would have to have it in stock.
  10. Will AMD Steamroller be their Sandy Bridge?

    The big question remains...does AMD have the resources to compete? I hope like hell they do, but I suspect that they don't. The rise of ARM cpu's worries me that we may well soon end up in a world (we're already there aren't we?) where Intel is the only provider of workstation class CPU's...
  11. Will AMD Steamroller be their Sandy Bridge?

    I imagine we'll get some increase, but I'm prepared to be disappointed. I've been an AMD fan since the first Athlon CPU's came out, but Sandy Bridge finally convinced me to go back to Intel. We all benefit from actual competition...imagine what Intel is holding back based on AMD's lack of...
  12. How to disassemble an Asus x202e?

    Sure enough, with all the screws off, the bottom has to snap off the casing. I found pulling it from the edge closest to the screen was the easiest. Thanks for the suggestion!
  13. How to disassemble an Asus x202e?

    I recently purchased an Asus x202e notebook (windows 8, 4 gig of ram, ivy bridge cpu, touchscreen, etc). I'm looking to replace the included hard drive with an SSD drive, but I can't figure out how to take the notebook apart. I removed all the screws from the bottom of the casing, but the...
  14. How is the Nvidia HDMI Audio in Windows 8

    Relevant details...Intel i7-2600 cpu, a Gigabyte Z77 based motherboard, 8 gig of RAM, 64 bit OS...running the HDMI through a Yamaha receiver into my Samsung 1080P LED tv. No difference plugging directly into the tv by the way, and switching HDMI cables makes no difference either.
  15. How is the Nvidia HDMI Audio in Windows 8

    I've got recurring HDMI audio skipping issues with my AMD 7950. This has happened ever since drivers newer than Catalyst 12.4 under Windows 7, and continues with my fresh Windows 8 install (and the Catalyst 12.10 drivers). I've been a loyal ATI/AMD customer for years, but this issue is...
  16. Intel SSD Caching with Windows 8

    Unfortunately none of this has yielded positive results for me. What size is the drive you're accelerating? I'm using a single WD 2TB drive - I'm wondering if the partition type might be affecting me.
  17. Intel SSD Caching with Windows 8

    Thanks for the suggestions. I do have a 2nd hard drive connected, I will try disconnecting that. There are no partitions on the SSD drive currently, so I can't see how that would be any problem. I will double check everything anyway and report my results.
  18. Intel SSD Caching with Windows 8

    My motherboard has a UEFI bios. Also, I disabled the caching before I did a completely fresh install of Windows 8. Since I enabled the caching post-install on Windows 7, I planned on doing the same with Windows 8. The Intel utility clearly supports it, it just fails with an "unknown" error...
  19. AMD HDMI audio continuously skipping

    Bump, am I really the only sad sap out there (or in here) having this problem?
  20. Intel SSD Caching with Windows 8

    Yes I hear you and I've been there and done that, and now I'm doing it again. Best way to learn is through suffering sadly...it is useful to me to know about the limitations and pitfalls of Windows 8 (for my job if nothing else). What better test bed than my home machine that I can blow away...
  21. AMD HDMI audio continuously skipping

    Ok everybody, time to revisit this issue. Fresh clean install of windows 8 (64 bit), the shipping drivers have this same issue. Installed Catalyst 12.10, same problem. Installed Catalyst 12.11, same problem. I can't be the only one out there having this problem. Any suggestions or help?!?
  22. Intel SSD Caching with Windows 8

    I've got a brand new fresh install of Windows 8 and I'm trying to re-enable the Intel SSD caching (Intel Smart Response Technology). This worked great with my existing setup under Windows 7. The hardware hasn't changed, but when I try to enable the acceleration under the Intel RST utility, it...
  23. AMD HDMI audio continuously skipping

    Sadly no suggestions. If I roll back to the 12.4 Catalyst drivers, everything works fine. So there's my solution. I would definitely be interested to hear if anyone else has seen this problem.
  24. AMD HDMI audio continuously skipping

    Ok let's get the specs out of the way first here. Intel i7-2600 cpu, Gigabyte Z77-D3H motherboard (Z77 chipset obviously) with latest firmware (F14). 8 Gig of RAM, Windows 7 64 bit (fully updated), and a Radeon 7950 video card. The system is hooked up to a Yamaha amplifier via HDMI, which...
  25. Expected Ivy Bridge performance

    That's actually a very good question...my guess would be a solid "maybe". :awe:
  26. Opinions on graphic card upgrade addiction

    Yeah I like to avoid the pain of SLI (heat, noise, power & driver scaling/support).
  27. Expected Ivy Bridge performance

    Yeah which of course can't justify the upgrade the cost, because even with the power savings, it would take YEARS to make back. Many years. So 2013 it is then. :)
  28. Opinions on graphic card upgrade addiction

    Hah hah, fair enough guys, fair enough. I have a steady girlfriend and my money is in order. I don't know why I posted such a question, just pondering the idea having gotten the new graphics card in.
  29. Expected Ivy Bridge performance

    What's the consensus on expected Ivy Bridge performance? Any chance we'll get something worth upgrading a i7 2600 over? I keep hoping we will (if you see my graphics card post, I've got a line of friends I can easily sell "old" hardware to). I'm holding out hope, but my guess is, "probably...
  30. Gaming on P4 2.8GHz

    Half Life something? Counterstrike?
  31. Opinions on graphic card upgrade addiction

    Ok so this one is probably flame bait to the max, but I'm curious to see how many other people in this forum feel like I do. I have a good line of friends to sell my "old" hardware at good prices to, and I have an addiction to getting the latest hardware. So in this spirit, I just sold my 6950...
  32. New B3 mobo...

    My Gigabyte motherboard has B3 as part of the model number. I didn't look to see if it was printed on the motherboard, but you can see it in the BIOS version info as I recall. And yes, it didn't do anything interesting for me either after I installed it, except Win7 activation did get triggered.
  33. Tri 580 sli VS Quad 590 sli

    Yeah in terms of diminishing returns on scaling, I'd think the two card setup would just make more sense...but it definitely blows my mind on thinking of budget and power. Dare I ask what you're going to play that is going to push that setup? And hopefully your CPU isn't a Celeron...:)
  34. Post your videocard history.

    Quick observation on trends...most of the long timers all started on 3DFX (how couldn't you?). Most everyone avoided ATI until the 9000 series. And thankfully most everyone avoided the Nvidia 5000 series.
  35. Post your videocard history.

    Oh boy, I've been along for the full ride. Orchid Voodoo Graphics Voodoo2 + Nvidia TNT Voddoo2 + Nvidia TNT2 Ultra Geforce 256 Geforce2 GTS Geforce3 Ti500 Geforce4 Ti4400 (died sadly, no overclocking or anything like that, out of warranty) Radeon 9800 Pro Geforce 6600GT Geforce 7800GT Radeon...
  36. Does AMD/ATI make stable drivers?

    Twinpeaksr, I'm wondering if you can try running on a single monitor just for testing, to see if you have the problem (or if you've tried that already)? I know that isn't a solution, but I'm curious if the issues come from multi-mon setups.
  37. Value of extra 2mb L3 in 2600K?

    Yeah I mean how much difference do we think the HT makes in all but the most thread heavy benchmarks? Since you turned off HT on yours, you could always try replicating some of the benchmarks out there and comparing your results.
  38. SB crashing after coming out of sleep

    Ok thanks for the info.
  39. SB crashing after coming out of sleep

    So my new SB setup is rock solid, except I've ended up with the dreaded BSOD three or four times now when the system comes out of sleep (S3). Unfortunately the blue screen data doesn't seem to give me enough info to suggest what might be the culprit. Stress testing the system has proven it to...
  40. Deja Vu All Over Again

    Being able to switch BIOS is pretty sweet. I've been considering the 6970 BIOS myself, just for the hell of it. Thanks for the clear answer btw.
