Forgot to ask which manufactures of the 6950 do you like the most?

I've made up my mind! I am going with 2 6950's in Crossfire (partly because I have never done it and want to), and then transfer my 4870 to my other gaming machine. Thanks for the comments.

Thanks for the article link. After reading the article, one thing I hadn't thought about was power consumption. I would need to put in my 850W psu if I end up doing this. I have an 8800GT in the computer that I take to gaming events and I was thinking of moving the 4870 to that and then...

I have a 24 inch monitor that I use for gaming and runs at 1900X1200. If I want to run either SLI or Crossfire, which model of Nvidia and AMD cards would you recommend to do this for this resolution. Is this resolution even high enough to warrant 2 video cards or would I be better off with...

Does anyone know of a good media player for an hdtv that has gigabit ethernet? Rob, have you reviewed any media players such as Western Digital's WD TV Live network-ready device? Can I request that you do one? Thanks.:D

I have been looking at the Rexus and Antec digital psu testers on Newegg. Have you guys every used these devices? If so do they work well? Thanks.

I think that I'll get another Quad 6600. Thanks.

Sorry guys, by bad. This processor is for a second computer that I take to LAN parties. I am planning on replacing the MB, RAM, CPU, and possibly the heat sink. Make sense now?:o

Merlin, When I bought my Q6600, I read where I should be looking for the G0 stepping. Does the E8400 have a particular stepping that I should look for? I thought i saw a C0 when I looked at the recommended cpu's for a Gigabyte mother board. Thanks.

If you had your choice of these two processors for an upgrade which one would you choose and why?

Has anyone at Techgage tested the SAPPHIRE 100259-1GL Radeon HD 4870 1GB card? I can't find any reviews on it except at Newegg. Is it fairly new? http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102801

I have the hard drive in the very bottom front bay so that area is clear except for the extra case fan that may have to come off for extra room. I was also, just out of curiosity, wondering if the Corsair 1000W PSU would fit in this case, but with that bottom fan that blows on the PSU I...

I'm having trouble finding the dimensions of the card. Does anyone know how long this card would be? Thanks.

Sorry, fix my mistake above.

Just what I was hoping to hear! Thanks guys for the responses. I'll give it a try with just one 4870. Rob, thanks for the graph. This is why I post here for tech questions. Techgage is the best!

If I went with a single HD4870 1 GB card, would the 550 still be enough to power everything?

Hello Everyone, Here is my current set up... Asus Maximus Formula MB Intel Q6600 cpu-OC to 3 GHz Tunig Tower HS with LED Fan Corsair VX 550 PSU 4 GB Corsair XMS2 RAM with RAM fan EVGA 8800GT GPU with Zalmon cooler Floppy Drive (why? I'm not sure) SATA Seagate 500 GB 7200.10 HD SATA...

Thank you for your suggestions. I will proceed ahead with a repair to get data and then reformat the hd and reinstall. Thanks again. BoySCouT

Kougar, The laptop has Windows XP Home on it. When it boots, I get the option of picking how I want to boot... Safe Mode, Safe Mode with networking, Safe Mode with command prompt, Last known good configuration and normal. I am trying the boot from last known good config that worked. I have...

Hello Everyone, I have a hp pavilion dv1000 that was in sleep (stand by) mode and my son took the battery out while the laptop was in sleep mode. When it boots up now, I get a blue screen error that lasts about a half a second and then the machine reboots itself. Any way to fix this or do I...
