    XFX 7600 GS A Little Old...Any Comments?

    It should OC to the same speeds as a 7600GT. Not a bad little card really.

    Chevy Camaro Convertible Concept

    Yeah, very sexy car. I can't wait to see what Pontiac does with their redo of the Firebird.

    Thermaltake Armor Case, plastic pieces

    They are for the raised pieces on the mobo tray. The raised parts are for BTX mobos and may short on an ATX mobo so when using an ATX mobo you cover them with the plastic for shielding.

    SilverStone PSU Muffler

    I'd suggest spending more than $20 on a PSU. You most likely spent 3 times as much on your cooling setup as you did on the PSU for your PC and now you're seeing one reason it's so cheap. It's pure rubbish. Actually I'm amazed that the unit hasn't taken a crap on you and wiped out half your PC...

    FYI, if the original buyer registers the card with XFX the warranty IS transferable to the new owner. There are a few hoops to jump through but it is something to consider.

    The Future of AMD

    I don't desire AMD going under but I'm not really interested in their new CPU's. I'm in no big rush to dispose of my hardware just yet.

    The Future of AMD

    Only if they release a 939 version. Otherwise I could care less.

    Yeah, so Xclio.....

    They're based on the same CWT designs that the Tt Toughpower 850 and 1KW's are. The whole show is bollocks though.

    My First Gamer Computer

    That's the odd thing, my TI 4800 only screwed up at bootup. Gaming it was fine, 3DMark '03 it was fine but at POST it had random odd characters floating across the screen. Come to find out the memory chip that was affected wasn't being addressed under 3D load. Strange as hell.

    My First Gamer Computer

    Yes but it runs a few hundred dollars and only checks the video memory. I had a TI4800 that started going all "Matrix" on me at bootup and I ran the program on it and found out that it had a bad ram chip.

    I've had games crash to the desktop from pushing my video card too hard overclocking it. It could be that the card is bad itself causing the failure but either way you'll get a lot more satisfaction from a faster/stronger vid card.

    Yep, the 7950GT will kick ass and take names in those games. It's essentially a downclocked 7900GTX, very powerful card.

    My First Gamer Computer

    The 7950GT spanks the 8600's butt in everything but benchmarks. That said if you're looking for low buck go with the 8600GT but if you're considering the GTS just remember that for about the same cash you can get a 7950GT that is faster but isn't DX10 ready. Do you plan to run Vista? If not I...

    How would you push 8GB?

    How would you push 8GB? To answer that in terms of mechanically moving it, in 1997 you'd need a shopping cart, today one hand would move it just fine. Amazing the progress we've made in the last ten years isn't it?
