    6870 CF Cooling Solution

    I'm presently running two Sapphire 6870's in crossfire on an Asus Sabertooth X58 motherboard. The dual x16 slots, if you're not already aware, are very close together, limiting the airflow into the top card. In my Lian Li PC-A70F case, idle temps are high, 37/56c idle temps (GPU1/2...

    Crossfire basics question

    Probably not the answers you are looking for, but at least for #4 -- I'm running two 6870's stock on a 650W while my other supply is out for RMA, so your current supply should be fine. I figured my power usage to be around 575W which doesn't leave me much room, but it will give you an idea.

    Replacement X58 Board

    I'm presently running an Intel DX58SO board that I believe to be the culprit of a bad ground issue. I've been getting a terrible echo sound in my headset when I use any VoIP service. Try as I might, I cannot isolate, even after removing the board from the case entirely and any non-critical...

    USB Audio Static

    I've done a search on this particular issue, but I can't seem to find anyone who has had similar symptoms as I am with this current issue. To start, I had a system build that was working perfectly fine, but I needed more room for a video card upgrade. I picked up a new case, Lian-Li A70F...

    COD:WAW Slow Load Times

    Well, let me if I can be specific as to what happen. I was playing WAW after coming home from work (I work nights). My doorbell rang and it was a friendly Purolator guy delivering me a package containing a video card. I ran gleefully to my computer and ripped open the box and grew excited...

    COD:WAW Slow Load Times

    Me either. But the minute I popped in this card -- I'm suddenly the slowest to load a level... Well... one of the slowest. Once in though; there is no problems (aside from alt+tabbing out, but that's another issue for Google to help with when I'm not lazy)

    COD:WAW Slow Load Times

    I did a search, and got multiple hits back, none that I could see pertaining to this question. I upgraded from an 8800 GTS to a 4890, installed the latest available drivers for Windows 7 x64, and eventually made my way into a COD:WAW game. Using my 8800 (Under the same OS) I could load...

    Disable Integrity Checks

    I don't know about anyone else here -- but I'm still hung up on this one. I found it quite humorous being told that any security I have is an illusion, while this guy uses "ZoneAlarm Extreme Security, check active processes manually, notice strange application behavior, and I eliminate...

    Will my Corsair VX 550W PSU handle a GTX 295?

    http://www.ncix.com/products/?sku=37205&vpn=017-P3-1294-AR&manufacture=eVGA That card recommends a 680W supply. Assuming other 295's are about the same power, I'd say you'd probably come up a bit short.

    How long till we can play Crysis maxed at 2560x1600 at 60 FPS?

    True. Why does everyone cling to the man junk that is Crysis? A semi-interesting game that was equivalent to watching the intro bink file to a game that is actually fun to play! Building a system to meet those performance needs is the equivalent to a 400HP engine for driving 35mph in town...

    Nvidia vs. ATI

    Thank you to those who have given some feed back. When it comes to cheaper though; it's not really something I look for in a card. It's definitely something I look for, don't get me wrong, but it's not the be all, end all. For example, a Sapphire 4890 may be cheaper than say, an XFX -- but...

    Nvidia vs. ATI

    I'm a long time Nvidia card user looking to do an upgrade to a 4890 or a 275 this month or early next. I've seen the review comparisons done in terms of ability and FPS benchmarks, but what I'm looking for is some information from the consumer perspective. 1 -- XFX aside, I'm not all too...
