    What Brand for a 5850?

    I prefer not to deal with shitbag companies. Last build i was looking for best performance per price, this build I'm looking to use companies that have decent support (see evga, xfx, etc)

    What Brand for a 5850?

    What's the easiest way to tell which models use the reference board?

    How fast do you believe Fermi will be relative to 5870?

    Obviously.. 300+ posts in barely a month! On the other hand, being from the south means you have to learn the hard way that "ain't" and "fixin' to" aren't real words/terms. I also agree with a lot of the other posters... why would Nvidia bother releasing if it wasn't an improvement?

    PCIe 2.0 and 2.1

    Thanks, I have a feeling for compatibility and that the features are from the upcoming PCIe 3.0 convention, my question is more of "will it be useful for anything?" or more importantly "will it be usefull for anything soon? (i.e. features active now or requiring other PCIe 3.0 ready components...

    PCIe 2.0 and 2.1

    I see GPU vendors out there that are offering very similar products but some of the devices are PCIe 2.0 ready and some are PCIe 2.1 ready. My limited understanding of PCIe 2.1 is that it supports some of the systems soon to be available in PCIe 3.0 with the same speed as PCIe 2.0. Under what...

    Clean install with Windows 7 upgrade edition?

    OvrrDrive, thanks for the link it was helpful. I have another question, something I'm not completely clear on. First let me start by saying I want to do a clean install on a new hard drive that I am going to upgrade along with a new mobo, CPU, memory and vid card. I was going to go with an...

    ME1 for starters

    Thanks for all the advice. As for my WoW accounts, I haven't touched them since October, even then I was playing all the time just to keep my head above water in a serious raiding guild. No way I could ever catch up now.. And I don't want to. Thanks again.

    ME1 for starters

    I know there is already a 26 page thread on ME2 but my question is slightly off-axis. I was too busy playing WOW when ME1 came out but have since shaken that addiction. I am building a new system and very much looking forward to playing ME2 but was wondering if ME1 is worth going through first...

    G9 or Mamba, decide my fate

    Looked for a G9 at one of the big box stores to see how it felt. Honestly it looks very strangely shaped. Best buy is supposed to sell it but couldn't find one at either of the stores in town. Is this thing as huge as it looks in the pictures?

    EVGA X58 SLI LE + H50 + GTX 275 + Scout Fitment?

    Nick, I was preparing to pull the trigger on almost the same setup as you. Upgrading the rig in my signature with the same evga board that is the subject of the post, the corsair XMS3 1600 cas 7 ram you referred to and the i7 920. In addition I was thinking of a Radeon 5850 but still haven't...

    Abit IN9 -32max probs (maybe)

    Frobozz: thanks for the helpful and informative post. Your advice has me up and running again as of yesterday. I was running the most recent BIOS, but just reloading it did the trick (must have been corrupt). Wish I would have thought of that myself a few weeks ago =P. Guess sometimes I put...
