    ASUS Rampage Extreme (X48 Board)

    I have a 750w Coolmaster but getting the 1000w Cosair. It is only one card though, 1 4870x2. No need to crossfire it because I am only running a 24" lcd. If I had a triple monitor setup or something larger then maybe but at the max res I use I really wouldn't see a benefit with 2 4870x2's

    ASUS Rampage Extreme (X48 Board)

    Hey bud, I did get my board and it's awsome, rock solid from the get go. I did read a lot on how the north bridge get's hot so I took the advise from another forum and removed the heatsink that covers the NB and SB and removed the thermal pads to put some Arctic Silver 5 on them. No issues, both...

    Got my 4870x2 today...but something is not happy with it....

    Rampage Formula Did a complete strip of all ATI components in the system and registry, trying again from CD. If this doesn't work I'll try my wifes monitor since its the same. if not then maybe head over to my friends who has a newer monitor.

    Got my 4870x2 today...but something is not happy with it....

    OK, well it's installed, the PC posts and gets to Vista (32 bit), no issues. Install the drivers (8.8), reboot, all is still good until Vista loads the display drivers to get to the login screen, I lose signal. The system still boots as I can hear the music as it gets to the login screen but no...
