    Monster Rig.

    I'd know that rig anywhere...I've certainly seen it enough at the water cooling sub-forum at [H] forums. Glad to see you here!!

    Add another 512?

    Your board does support dual channel, I just looked it up here and it's right there so you'll see a good gain from not only increasing the amount of ram but from boosting the bandwidth as well. Make sure to consult the manual for how to configure DC and if you need help I'll download the...

    Hello, Welcome To The Forums. Have A Bit Of A Sit Down and Introduce Yourselves

    Hello...Since we're going to see a rise in membership a new member suggested an introductary thread to let everyone get aquainted and I think that's a fine idea. I'll start the ball rolling. I'm Matt Harris and I'm a soon to be 41 tech head. I've been into electronics since the tender age of...

    Nvidia 7900GT and GTX

    The 7900 is supposedly moving to a smaller process though. I'm interested to see how the 7900's do in real life.

    XP or Vista

    If the DRM stuff is as bad as some of the doom and gloom sites suggest I'll avoid it until I absolutely have to change.

    Nvidia 7900GT and GTX

    I've heard the core is too, stock at 650 and hitting 710 or so on air...not too shabby.

    Nvidia 7900GT and GTX

    I don't think they could quote nda abuse if you gave him an offhand amount, it doesn't have to be exact but "somewhere in the neighborhood" of the MSRP...I've heard $299 for the GT so I'd expect $400 or so for a GTX.

    Nvidia 7900GT and GTX

    I'm interested in both but unfortunately at the present time I have filet mignon tastes on a navel lint budget...

    BFG 6800GT is hawt!

    Remember when my 6800 was reporting like 270C? It'd also start showing -80C...Stupid SpeedFan issue there.

    Thermaltake Blue Orb II

    This: Is a complete oxymoron... Aluminum doesn't give up its heat better than copper yet it radiates its heat better than copper yet it's of no consequence? What utter BS, this is why I stopped going to Overclockers.com a couple of years ago, they speak in complete riddles there. If Al...

    BFG 6800GT is hawt!

    WTF?? That has to be a glitch somewhere...

    F-that! £80 please!

    What a bunch of BS, I could understand if he was in a store or someplace where he was offending others but he was having a private conversation with friends. What's next? Monitoring private convo's on the 'net and handing out fines for "abusive" language?

    nVidia Buys ULi, Could This Mean Troubles For ATI?

    I think you've got it backwards, nVidia rules at OGL while ATI has the D3D thing pretty much tied up. This is why FireGL cards aren't as popular as the Quadro boards for doing intensive Open GL rendering, nVidia spanks ATIs butt at Open GL.

    nVidia Buys ULi, Could This Mean Troubles For ATI?

    Intel has a chipset that will do SLI if nVidia would license it to the Intel chipset and allow their drivers to run SLI on Intel's chipset. As it stands nVidia will not allow SLI to work on any chipset but the nForce 4 SLI and X16 chipsets.

    nVidia Buys ULi, Could This Mean Troubles For ATI?

    I don't know if it could be argued that nVidia is monopolizing against ATI. VIA, AMD and ATI themselves all make core logic chipsets so it could be argued that ULi isn't neccessary for ATIs survival. Besides, mergers like this have to be approved when the the two companies in question are...

    nVidia Buys ULi, Could This Mean Troubles For ATI?

    As some of us are aware ATI has been having trouble with it's PCI-E core logic chipsets southbridge and the successful boards are using southbridges supplied by ULi. I'm wondering if their aquistion by chipset rival (and GPU rival) will spell trouble for ATI until they can come up with a...

    Anyone have an Opteron?

    ASRock is just ASUS' budget offering...it would stand to reason that they'd be pretty decent.
