    Must Buy New System Within 24 Hours Help Please?

    I have a relative in Scottsdale Arizona who is elderly. His 9 year old Gateway has died the final death. He wants me to select a new tower and monitor for him. He ONLY wants to purchase it from Best Buy. My entreaties to look elsewhere have failed. He will use the system to do basic surfing and...

The arrow keys work fine navigating the Advanced Menu Options window, he ca n select safe mode, start normal etc, but no mater which option chosen...

    Cayman Crossfire X Hot/Loud :-(

    I've got three x16's and am thinking of trying a CF setup. Normally heat isn't a problem we Alaskan's have to deal with. Here are a couple on Denali going on to an Wilderness OverClocking Camp.

    4870x2 owner upgrading to AMD 6950

    Thanks! My MB has three PCIe true x16 slots. My understanding is running these in CF right next to each other increases both the temps and noise. Eventually I'll have the XFX. Hopefully this year. God what a screw up! The only reason I decided on that flavor was the warranty. But the Sapphire...

    Which brand did you get? XFX? Is the CF bridge that came with it long enough to allow you to have an empty slot between the cards?

    "Edit- I had a VERY bad day yesterday. I screwed up and am sorry. Please don't jump on me and screw up Reaper's thread. MY 6950 is going to be shipped back to me. Hopefully before 2011." You could send it my way... I'm glad you are happy! How quiet is it at load? And have you loaded...

    Decided to return XFX 6950 unopened

    Kyle, I figure if I'm going to spend this kind of money I'd rather have the stronger product. And that's the GTX-570. I don't see a 6970 in YOUR specs... And I haven't had anything but ATI cards for the past decade. Time for a change.

    Decided to return XFX 6950 unopened

    That is the link. It looks identical to what I posted. And it is the Hotfix to add some support for the 6900 series cards to 10.2. They launched a product with THAT kind of lame support? Pass! Plus anyway I turned it the GTX-570 looks to be the superior product. It will likely cost me $80...
