This made me laugh out loud, nice work. :D

Great look, BusyBeaverHP! I do have to mimic the rectangle request; it'd be great (due to how I sit, the curve sometimes allows me to lean my arm the wrong way, and after a prolonged time of not noticing, it can be a little irritating). I first used a Ratpadz XT in 2006, and I haven't looked...

Well, it's been a mere couple of days and a problem DID re-arise. It's the haze to the left side of the panel, but it does seem to go away after the display has been turned off for a while. It's not a game-breaker enough to make me recook that logic board, but it does lead me to believe that the...

Thanks a ton for the help guys, and also to the rest who posted in this thread (especially revtech). After spending a good hour breaking the display down, I cooked the logic board in my oven for 8 minutes @ 375C as ekuest recommended, and once put back together, the flicker was no more. Now...

Hi all: I've been experiencing issues with my XHD3000, and I'd like to see if some of the fixes mentioned here could also possibly help me out. I'm not a solderer at all, so I'm hoping this issue can be fixed via other means, if it can be fixed at all. About a year ago, the panel...

To tackle the first part, we've been around since March 2005 and have published 704 articles to date. Now you've heard of us :-) I'm not quite sure what you mean by the rest of that line though, but if you mean that we haven't tested with cards other than what was mentioned in the article...

Hi all: I'm the one who wrote the Techgage article, and I'd just like to respond to a few comments here. 130FPS is not impossible at 1680x1050, as the chart shows. In addition to the information shown on the graph itself, we also include direct screenshots from each game used to show...

Hey all, There seems to be this common myth that Windows can only allocate up to 2GB of physical memory to a given app. This could be true in some versions of Windows, but since only x64 will recognize 4GB, that's what I have been using. What I basically want to know is... what's the...

Here is a good example of a game with and without the PhysX card. It's actually quite impressive, but I'd love to see a LOT more examples of this. I agree that the card needs more killer apps, and it's sad that the list so far is not really that huge. Either way, it looks to be very...

Sweet, thanks a ton for the help guys!

It should handle everything at that resolution. My 7800GT handles every game great, although FEAR at max everything was somewhat laggy.
