    Water Cooling Help

    The Koolance radiator you have linked is made of Aluminum. You will save yourself a lot of headaches in the future if you get a Copper or Brass radiator and copper waterblocks. I've never owned a Lian-Li V1000, but it does not look like it will fit a radiator very easily (judging from the...

    Looking into watercooling an upcoming build. Done my homework, few questions still.

    I just ordered close to the same parts semisonic9 is getting (Intel Q9450 going to OC to 400mhz FSB and 2 ATI 4870s). I am going to water cool them with a Zalman Reserator2 and a Koolance HX-420 w/ fan. My current pump is an MCP350. I will let you know how my installation goes and the temps to...

    I'm very excited about the 4000 series but...

    I intentionally avoided Call of Duty 4 and Crysis simply because I wanted to play them on a good card (currently im on an x1950 Pro). Soon I can play crysis in its full glory! I might even give The Witcher and Mass Effect a second go round too. Mu ha ha ha ha ha!

    The Waiting Game

    3) Leave it at the door anyway. The UPS people in my area are pretty much negligent when it comes to getting signatures and delivery instructions.

    The Waiting Game

    I really hate the waiting game. I've got an entire system in various states of shipment across the internet, all hinging on my successful order of a pair of 4870s. The worst part is I will be going out of town for the 4th of July weekend right when the last package will arrive.

    Lower those 4870 temps!

    I'm planning on watercooling the 4870s I ordered. I'm taking a gamble that the Zalman waterblock will fit (course, they fit just about anything given the design of the block). As per voiding the warranty, unless there is a sticker over the heatsink that says otherwise, I would not worry about it.

    At the egg again

    You will be getting an email saying they are backordered shortly. As a particular Admiral would say... ITS A TRAP! ...yeah I fell for it too.

    EA, SEGA and Blizzard sign on for DX 10.1

    I would actually like it if Blizzard would come up with some new IP. Its been 10 years since they have done anything new (starcraft). They do really good games, its time to branch out and try something original.

    4870 @ the Egg

    If the GDDR5 quantity problems are really holding the cards back, I don't think we will see 1GB versions for a while yet. Not when they can sell two 512 MB cards instead.

    4870 @ the Egg

    Yep, same story here. I ordered 2 of them at around 11 am Central and got the backorder notice a couple hours ago. I'm just going to stick it out with Best Buy. That way if crossfire does not work out as well as I would like I can return the card to the store. I'm pretty pumped about getting...

    Radeon HD 4850 stock cooler on an X1950 Pro?

    What are you going to do about cooling the voltage regulators on the back end of the 4850? Ram Sinks, or do those not even need it?

    4870 @ the Egg

    No, I'm home and just waiting for the NDA to lift. Its time to put my crap-tacular x1950 pro out to pasture.

    Im going to sit here and click refresh for the next 4 hours and 45 minutes. :-P

    4870 is out

    Gaming on a 37" 1080p Widescreen is pretty awesome, but only good for games where you can scale up the font size on the text. Otherwise you are either too close to be comfortable or too far away to read anything. WoW is the best example so far where I find it more fun to play on the couch than...

    4870 is out

    Aww, now you have gone and made me sad again. Time to turn to the booze, and maybe hook my PC back up to the LCD TV.
