This card looks crazy nice. It seems to be the first passively cooled design that actually looks good! I may consider buying this some time to upgrade from my rather sad 6200... I think the improvement would be quite nice :) don't you think? :D It's also worth mentioning that the card...

Awesome! I can always count on Techgage :D

Is techgage going to be doing a review of the DX? I have been holding off on buying the D2, because the DX might serve my purposes just as well. I will be ordering the headphones and sound card at the same time... so, whenever I see a review of the DX, I'll make the final choice. I just...

Once I get these headphones I will DEFINITELY be using mainly headphones. I'm pretty certain now that I'll go with HD 580s, which really seem just about perfect for my needs. I found them at an amazing price at DjDeals.com. Does anyone know anything about that retailer? The price is a full $30...

Well, I've posted around at the Head-Fi forums, and I am now throughly confused :confused: There was too much talk about amps and headphones that you can hardly buy anymore... lol. Too much for me! :p I think I'll confine my search to this forum. I'll trust you guys :D Also, sorry to have...

Hmm... good point sbrehm! Guess I should keep up with my news more :o

Darn :( Looks like Google didn't win it: See Engadget for details... Well, it will be interesting to see what these companies do with their piece of the spectrum...

The XHD3000 looks like an excellent monitor! Congrats on the purchase (or soon to be purchase). Hmm... it comes to mind though, didn't you just order the dell 2408WFP? If you are getting both... you are one very lucky man! -linnerd40 ALSO: Have you looked at the Samsung SyncMaster 305T...

Hey! Thanks for the reply! Those headphones look really nice! I think the price is OK too, my dad is definitely interested in investing in some good headphones too, so maybe we can split the price :D Any other recommendations? Maybe something just a tad lower in price? This hunt is more...

Thanks, Rob, for the wonderful guide! Installation doesn't look too bad... get to flex my Linux muscles a bit again, haven't had much time as of late :D Looks like the ASUS Xonar is the way to go for me, probably just the D2 version, non PCI-E. As for headphones, I've been looking at the...

It is good to know that there is Linux support available. I have been wanting to get this card for quite some time, and I think I may just get it now. Just a few questions: I am running Ubuntu (isn't everybody these days? :( ) 7.04 as my primary OS, will the drivers install ok? How about...

Wow! Thanks madmat, great reply! Techage is the place to go for help :D Looks like I'll be taking the HX620. Thanks guys.

Excellent point, sorry that I didn't mention this earlier: I'm looking at upgrading in the next few months to: Intel C2D E6750, most likely heavily overclocked, MAYBE Q6600 8800GT, also overclocked, possibly SLI in a year or so 2GB PC6400 RAM (most likely overclocked also), up to 4GB in...

Thanks for the reply. I am leaning towards the HX620. I have a Raidmax Smilodon Case and the modular cables will really cut down on the clutter in there. And don't worry, I'm not about to buy anything off of Newegg reviews. Any other thoughts?

Hi all! I am in the market for a new PSU, and I need something that will be good for some time to come. It must be under $150, and these are the models I had in mind: Corsiar 620HX Thermaltake Toughpower W0106RU Coolmax CUG-700B Which one is the best? I like the Corsair and I have...
