I've got the dual setup and am trying to run the dual screeens, both of them being identical. It doesn't seem to be picking up the other screen despite me trying to detect it and only offers single display as an option. Any advice or links to a solution for this?

I got sisoft sandra to do some tests and here's some temperature infor it's given me; Temperature Sensor(s) Board Temperature : 25.0°C / 77.0°F CPU Temperature : 41.0°C / 105.8°F Power / Aux Temperature : 71.0°C / 159.8°F I seems to be highlighting the 71'c bit and telling me it's too...

I recently bought a new system thats been running fine in most games I've been playing but in certain high demand games such as Battlefield 2 and Everquest 2 its really seeming to suffer and yet people I know with rigs that aren't as good are obtaining better performance. I heard from a copule...

I've got a 7800GTX SLi, 2gb, FX57 system that seems to have been running pretty much fine since I got it a couple of months back except it does seem to run slowly in certain games particlarly everquest 2 even when running at balanced settings which my old 3ghz 9800 pro comp could do. Now more...

I have recently received a new gaming computer but I seem to be experiencing problems with both xp and my HDD. Almost every program I download comes up with an error with the file data1.cab. This happens on nearly all of my downloads. After doing a few searches I came to see that this problem...

Do I need to change the profile for each and every program I use?

I received my system today which is as follows: Athlon FX-57 2GB Corsair RAM 560GB HDD 2 x 7800GTX's I ran 3DMark05 and received a mark of only 8948 why might this be? During the last couple of videos I was getting around 2-6 FPS which I didn't expect from my new system. This is the...

Cheers I'll fiddle around with my 5600 first to get used to it and see how it goes

Ok cheers for the attitude mate, a nice welcome to the hardocp forums. I don't care what your opinion is on me overclocking this card, everybody has to start somewhere.

Ok today I received my new custom system with dual Gigabyte 7800 GTX's. I'm aware that the gigabyte cards are stock compared to the other pre overclocked cards. How would I go about overclocking these cards from the stock 430Mhz to 460-490Mhz and would this be a relatively easy and safe process?

I only have a 3Ghz Intel Processor and a Radeon 9800 Pro, and I can run the game on max except without AA at 1280x1024. No slowdown at all even during arti, I don't see how the game could have any problem running with 8x AA on dual 7800GTX SLi.

yeah i've been saving a while :) I'm just debating that all that is worth over £2000.... Out of interest if I only get 1 card the other will have to be identical right?

I'm going to be buying a top of the range system and don't have the ability to put parts together myself so I'm buying a standard configured one. So far I have in it: Hiper 525W True Power PSU AMD Athlon 64 FX-57 Zalman Ultra Quiet CPU Cooler Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe Socket 939 PCI-Express...
