    MSI R7970 Lightning Video Card Review @ [H]

    No, my 1st choice is the MSI 7970, I want to know if the Display port to DVI-D adapter that it comes with is an ACTIVE adapter, if it is not, I will go with the Asus 7970 as it can do dual DVI-D. I dont want to spend another 50 bucks on an active adapter for using tne MSI. I am not pursuing any...

    MSI R7970 Lightning Video Card Review @ [H]

    I have a 30" monitor and running 2560 x 1600, and its only interface is Dual DVI-D, now I am very interested in the MSI 7970 Lightning but its only single DVI-D out. If you go to newegg: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127670 They show a mini display port to DVI...

    SB to IB upgrade for PCI-E 3 worth it?

    Yeah, I to caught the "look at us we are pci-e 3.0 twice the bandwidth" a couple of months ago, and was hyped up to implement it in my new rig. I had that mentality today as I was in the process of doing a return on my (still in the box) i5 2500k, so I could get the IVY because I am soon buying...

    SB to IB upgrade for PCI-E 3 worth it?

    Im definatley planning on overclocking, using a Corsair H100 CPU cooler. I have been reading all day about the heat issues on the i5 3570k, seems anything over 4.7 will be problematic. Im aiming for 4.8 or better if I can. My primary concern was I wanted to get the most hourse power out of my HD...

    upgrade suggestions for an 8800GTS Please

    Hi, my existing 30” Gateway monitor has died, I will be replacing it with a 30” LG W3000H. While im at it, I decided that maybe I could upgrade my 2 year old EVGA 8800GTS (if its worth it?). I use the PC primarily for gaming, COD4, MW2, and combat flight sims like Blackshark. I like the high...
