...since I started the thread and all .... :p

I have been watching NewEgg's stock on the 8800GT SSC card- On Monday it was listed at $309.00 Today $329.00!! How high can they take it???? Ugh!

I am getting ready to set-up a new rig this weekend. I am going to follow this procedure implicitly- BUT I am wondering if there is a way to download all the current hotfixes, drivers, etc in order to speed the install up. If this is possible; where can I find the specified files? When I look...

Agreed- I won't get the full 4GB until I go into Vista (which I desperately want to do ...but the horror stories are too much!) I figure I'll just wait until SP1 comes out for Vista. Damn- Black Friday...didn't think of that! Hmmm..... Thanks for all the help!!

I don't mean to ride anyone's coat tails but... this is the exact kind of set-up I have been racking my brains for and if you wouldn't mind Danny Bui/others I have a few follow up questions: QX6600 vs. QX6850: This is just a waste of money in regards to the 6850's performance gains in...

Ok so I am building my new system (aren't we all?)... Plan so far QX6850 Extreme 4GB Ram (still debating brand etc) 1066Mhz- low latency yada yada yada Dual Raptors Dual N92 GTX's all the rest as typical. What MB will handle the 4GB of RAM with minimal problems handle the SLi, allow me to OC...

Just moved into my first home! In any case I want to put my desktop in a corner that is not anywhere near a network connection. I do a lot of online gaming (mostly WoW - sad to say) so I would like the best card that I can rely on. The Desktop will be no more than 20-30ft from the wireless...

I have a HP xw9300 which consists of 2- 2.4Ghz Opteron Chips, with SLi'd Nvidia 7800 GTX's 2- 74GB Raptors as well as a 400GB Storage drive. Nothing overclocked, just the factory settings. Lately I have noticed a bit of fan noise coming from my case- but thought maybe I was just being...

I have an HP xw9300 workstation with Dual 7800 GTx (SLi)'d. I have 2gb of RAM. Dual 80GB Raptors in a Raid0, as well as a 400GB storage drive. This is all hooked to the Dell 2405FPW 24" LCD Monitor (1920 x 1200- current setting). You would think that if I played a DVD at full screen, that the...

Ok- well I am definitely just going w/ the 7800's as I'm impatient and Oct/Dec is a Long way off. I always had an ATI board guess it's time to see if the grass IS really greener. The 4800+ vs. 57 debate is killing me now. Agreed the 57 is faster. Agreed the 4800+ has more "use" The thing...
