I believe all the necessary silicon is on the 3870X2 so it should work on any main board with a PCIe X16 slot.... don't quote me on it though...

yeah I found that one before....I think after weighing everything I am going to go with the 8800 GTS...unless of course the 3870X2 pulls a rabbit out of its as....hat....and can outperform 2 3870's....

yep...the 23rd... anyway the 3870x2 should be almost identical in performance to 2 3870's in crossfire...maybe somewhat faster... so the question still stands 2 3870's (or 3870X2) or 2 8800 GTS 512's in SLI?

I seen some images a while back where it looked like it was hanging 2 inches over the side of the main board...but looking at an image of a retail card from last week it is barely extending out past the main board....

too long for my case...and I probably wont be able to find one for another month once it is released...

I have been unable to find any benchmarks between the two in crossfire/sli... It seems like the G92 is a better single card but that Crossfire scales better than SLI and that would cause the 3870's to pull ahead... I am really on the fence here and would appreciate some input on this...

wow yours was packaged entirely different than mine...that packaging looks like it could take a beating.... Some idiot there must have screwed mine up...

Well I ended up with a refund minus initial shipping costs...I don't know if I could recommend Accurate IT....I know I wont be ordering through them again... All was going well when I informed them I had some issues they said they would bring it back which they did only fedex had managed to...

Accurate IT agreed to take it back...they scheduled pick up with fedex for Friday....but of course I call at 4PM FedEx says everything is in order and the driver will be there today to pick it up....I call at 8PM and am informed no pick up had been scheduled for today... so hopefully I will...

well I already filed a damage claim anyway this morning...they wanted pictures if I could but I have no camera at the moment (digital camera and large falls = not good bedfellows)...I responded letting them know I had no camera available and now I am waiting on a response again... EDIT: well no...

when I say tiny I mean tiny its about the size of a pixel....and you can only see it during extreme situations...I have to have something bright right above it and something dark underneath it and then I can find it...any other time its impossible to point out.... The display came in a box on a...

it is on both the left and right sides if you look at the top of the screen in the middle its higher and then slopes down to both corners....it causes things to bend upward slightly when they are near the top of the screen.... I don't think that would do it given that it is happening equally on...

I personally like the LG L246WP....it is $599 at Best Buy but if you watch it will go on sale for $499 fairly often... it is a P-MVA panel so there is not as much color shift but it is definitely still there....

a 'bit' expensive?? :eek: if anyone knows of a solution for the curve let me know because if I don't figure this out I am thinking about calling them up and trying to exchange... I mean its not a huge curve but it is enough that my eye picks up on it...

I don't know of any program to do that but the best way to at least check for dead pixels is with a program called Dead Pixel Buddybasically it will bring up solid colors on the screen and then you can look over it to try and find any that are currently dead or stuck...
