I thought about more RAM. I'm out of the loop. Could you recommend me a good brand for this particular motherboard? Right now, I have my PC overclocked at just the right settings. Would you recommend 4 Gigs or more?
I just ordered the second monitor. It's identical to my existing one. Is there anything I can do to make things run smoother? For example, could I upgrade my video card? Right now, games like BioShock run great.
Hi,
Thanks for your reply. Essentially, I would like to play, for example, a first person shooter such as BioShock and have a walkthrough open on the other monitor. Is this feasible?
Hello all,
I would like to run a dual-monitor setup (1680x1050). Will my hardware be okay? The goal is to have a game running on one monitor and a webpage on the other. Any feedback would be appreciated.
hello to all,
would any of you happen to know how the performance is for an ATI Radeon 5830 for gaming/video editing? thanks.

hello everyone,
just recently got an xbox 360 arcade. i realize it doesn't have a hard drive, but i should still be able to update the firmware. for some reason when i get onto xbox live, i do not get a message indicating that there's an update (referring to latest firmware update).
i've...
i recently received my xbox 360 red elite from newegg. been running it for about a week and sometimes i leave it on all day long without any issues so far. playing resident evil 5 and streaming Netflix HD flawlessly. wanted a black elite but couldn't find one that was a jasper, so i went ahead...
i was holding out for a jasper black elite without luck. plus, i grew very impatient and decided to grab the red elite, and to be honest with you, it's growing on me. it actually looks nice next to all my other devices including a PS3. it runs very quiet and cool. hopefully, the jasper chip will...
that's a good recommendation. i have been out of the loop since ddr2 came out. plus, this will save me money until i upgrade entirely to a new system. thanks
hi everyone,
i noticed that memory prices are reasonable. i would like to upgrade to a 2 x 2 GB memory kit and keep my existing overclock. please recommend a good, reliable memory kit. system specs are in my sig. thanks!
hi everyone,
i am looking into getting a new hard drive for my system so that i may dual boot. what is the best bang for the buck hard drive at the moment. please assist. thank you.
i am thinking about getting one myself. the temps look good too. right now my room is cool due to the winter weather but once it gets warmer, the stock cooler may not be sufficient. i assume since mine is an evga, this cooler will still work.
i'm currently playing crysis with my 7800gtx and waiting on the 8800gt to get here on thursday. hopefully i'll get a bit of a boost in performance. i agree that it's an awesome game.
i bought this sound card last week at compUSA for $99. i use an nforce motherboard and haven't had any issues. i play alot of BF2 and i definitely noticed a difference after upgrading from my audigy.
Dravic,
could you tell me how you have your memory timings set?
i am able to overclock my 4800 with these settings:
10 x 270 = 2700
memory timings at 3-3-2-7 @ 2.7v
when i change my settings to 12 x 250 = 3000 i can't even boot into windows.
250 is less than 270. i'm running my...
hi,
thanks for your help. i think it's my antivirus causing the issue. i'm using nod32. i even installed the video driver using safe mode and it installs fine but when i login to windows normally the control panel seems to be disabled. i don't understand. what is different about these new...
i downloaded nvidia driver 163.71 straight off of nvidia's website. i uninstalled the old driver, used driver cleaner, and installed the new driver. when i try to load the control panel nothing happens. is there way to fix this? please help.
it's good to know that my system will get me by for a little while longer. if i were to keep my existing 7800 gtx, will i be able to play with reasonable frame rates at 1680 x 1050 on a 22" monitor? i thought about getting the samsung 226bw.
thanks for all your replies everyone. the question is will an 8800 gtx fit in my case even with the crossflow fan installed? it looks like this.
crossflow
anyone have experience with this?
hello everyone,
i want to get an 8800 GTX in the near future. i finally got a new power supply. the specs of my system are in my sig. i realize my system is outdated. how much will it hold the 8800 back? also i have the original cm stacker with the crossflow fan installed. will the video card...
hello everyone,
i would like to know if this power supply will fit in my case. my system specs are in my sig. thanks in advance.
Power Supply
by the way, this is the CM stacker that i own. it's the older model and not the newer stacker.
stacker
thanks guys. hopefully my existing system will handle the new hardware well. i realize that AMD X2 has become outdated but i still should be able to enjoy the newer games without too much of a performance penalty. wouldn't you say?
