    Question for PCI-E X800XL owners

    I have a Sapphire 800 XL and it does not need a power connector and unlike my old x800 Pro it draws all it's power from the PCIe slot. I have an OCZ psu and it has a separate PCIe power connector. So to answer you question I am using the 24pin on the mobo but have an extra one for a PCIe...

    Samsung 930B or NEC 1970 GX?

    Well finally settled on the 1970GX. I took both home for comparisons but like the glossy look of the GX better than the matte of the 930B. No dead pixels and the color reproduction is amazing. Highly recommended.

    Samsung 930B or NEC 1970 GX?

    hey decoded nice pics, thanks. I thought I had convinced myself that I wanted the Sammy but the NEC has a glossy cover over the monitor (just like Sony's Xbrite) as compared to the matte finish to the 930b. Another issue was the fact that Samsung does not include the DVI cable

    Samsung 930B or NEC 1970 GX?

    Need to get a 19' LCD and these two seem to be what I've narrowed them down to. Both have 8ms response time which is what I'm looking for. The NEC is $50cnd more than the Samsung. I've also been looking at the BenQ 937 which has a 12ms response time and cost $180cnd less. Help!

    Sapphire X800 Pro or BFG 6600 GT OC (please help!!)

    Wait! The 800XL beats the 800 Pro??? I was talking to a sales rep and he said not to bother with the XL. It's $100 more cnd here in Alberta so is it worth that money.
