    Let the 6970 Rumors Begin

    Yep should be exciting, I will end up grabbing the coolest of the two, personally I would take cool and quiet over the top performer if I have to (if both are monsters I'll just end up installing after-market cooling). Personally I'm hoping that the 6970 will be the cheaper of the two and run...

    5850 Random Heat Spikes

    I think I've found the issue, not with my games crashing but with the random heat spikes. The spikes only occur when gpu-z is running. I can safely run furmark or occt for hours but once i open up gpu-z within minutes my gpu's heat spikes to ridiculous numbers. There might be some sort of...

    How are ATI Drivers these days?

    They've been working perfectly fine for me, I remember having a few issues when I was running 5850's in crossfire, but that was only due to the game not being supported for crossfire at the time. The only thing I'd really like to see is the ability to set 3d profiles for specific games rather...

    Game Idea

    That shouldn't be too difficult, you can download a list of scores, user names, etc from here http://folding.stanford.edu/English/Stats it updates once every hour. Now if we could import that document into a mysql table we could use that for referencing and update the table once an hour to get...

    Game Idea

    Balance Either we can import the full score of the players upon joining or we can have them start with nothing and have them earn it from there therefore allowing all players to start on an even playing field. The only problem with that is that many people have already spent a lot of time and...

    Game Idea

    I wasn't sure exactly where to post this but since it has to do with folding@home I placed it here. If my assumption was incorrect please move this thread to a more appropriate location. Thanks :) Okay now onto the idea, Folding@home gives you PPU and this PPU get accumulated into a total...

    Directx 11 Freezes with Crossfire

    2 of the games are steam (metro 2033 & dirt 2) the other is unigine's heaven 2.0. But just cause 2, batman arkham asylum, and prototype work just fine. I only have 1 monitor and rarely (almost never) watch any videos. hmm, I might just have to do a fresh install of windows..

    CCC and Overdrive

    There's an option to enable "unofficial" overclocking on Afterburner. It may not be as reliable but if you don't want to risk your card by flashing new bios (I guess you can call me a chicken) then enabling the unofficial ocing method is the best second option. You can enable this option by...

    Directx 11 Freezes with Crossfire

    I am at wits end here. Starting yesterday every directx 11 program I run will work for a few minutes and then the picture will freeze and the computer will become completely unresponsive. I was ocing at the time so I blamed it entirely on the oc. So I tried it at stock, the same thing happened...

    Any 5XXX owners SERIOUSLY secretly contemplating selling their cards for Fermi?

    idk but I'd call it semi-derailed, it's more about arguing with goldentiger than debating whether people would/should/could trade there 58xx cards for gtx 4xx cards. Meh oh well, it's bed time, got work in a few hours.

    About how far away is the 6000 series?

    ATI can not skip a year because unlike Nvidia they don't have a nice stock pile of cash to lean on while they produce their next card, they need to stay current or risk going under. But as you and the guy above you mentioned (and I completely forgot) the 32nm process is right around the corner...
