    AMD and ATI vs. Intel and nVidia upgrade question..

    Sorry for the late response on this.. I'm just going to spring for a 260 or 4870 in the meantime.. I def think it's my vid card that's the bottleneck and I can wait the extra 20 seconds for audio rendering at the moment... Thanks again all!! Best HW forum on earth right here..! M

    AMD and ATI vs. Intel and nVidia upgrade question..

    I'm not totally unhappy I'd say, but it'll stutter during L4D and on Fallout 3 when there's alot going on.. It just kinda sucks because I'll end up missing some action (aka getting killed because of the stuttering) ..I've heard that the GPU means alot more in current games than raw processing...

    Which to game, which to HTPC with...

    Ok.. I didn't want to post this in the Intel or AMD specific forums due to the fact that I'm comparing the two.. anyways, I'm wondering if I should "switch" my systems. Right now I game on an X2 3800+ system w/an 8800GTS.. and I was considering if I should upgrade the processor to the new...

    How to tell if your computer has PCI-E or APG slot?

    If he looks on the back of the PC (or sometimes on the top or sides of the case), it'll have an express service tag #.. He can write that down, then go to Dell's support section of their website, and enter the #.. it'll give him all the details there.

    8800GTS SuperClocked worth it?

    Hey guys, just a quick update and another quick question... So I got the 8800GTS SC, and I'm loving it.. Thanks so much for the advice on the purchase.. easily worth it at the 263 I paid for it.. I've been tinkering w/overclocking since i'm getting an X2 BE 5000+ soon, so for a reference...

    8800GTS SuperClocked worth it?

    Yep, it's eVGA.. The ram was one of my concerns.. dealing w/512 now, and then stepping down to 320.. I wondered if I'd take a performance hit due to the GPU speed increase not being that much over the 2 7900's. Cool though, I'm gonna go for it..

    8800GTS SuperClocked worth it?

    ..it's 263 at Microcenter, and right now I'm dealing with 2 7900gs KO's in SLI (I play most games at 1680x1050...) Is the upgrade worth it, keeping in mind the new cards coming out soon?? I'm thinking the step up program may come in handy... cpu is an X2 3800+ / 2gigs 6400 Thanks...

    Weal link? CPU or Vid Card??

    Haven't checked the FPS in any other games.. I'm running TF2 at 1680x1050.. I just dl'ed the UT3 demo, so I'll see if I can get the FPS to show there or something. I'm thinking it may be my CPU bottlenecking, because I did a 10% oc to 2.1ghz, and got 5 or 6 more frames on average, so then...
