    Dellienware CEO Opinion at Extremetech.

    What difference will this make for alienware or for dell if they remain 2 seperate entities ... 1) i had a dell 1.5ghz p4 willamet (yeah i know... :rolleyes: ), and i sucked, the psu made a buzzing noise, performance was crap, and i had asked for 512mb of ram and it only came with 128... had...

    7800GTX 512mb availability

    mark my words: it's a ghost card in france. doesnt mean it was called "phantom edition" that it was true. i had no problems buying one off the shelf. by the way the x1800xt is selling well, but that's not the subject of conversation here. it IS the 7800gtx 512mb's availability who's being...

    7800GTX 512mb availability

    it took me 5 minutes to find and buy an x800xt pe in a street shop. they actually were available in france in decent quantities. by the way, x1800 are available everywhere here, and abundantly available at e-tailors in the usa... shops here are dead on MSRP, so that's a moderatly good sign...

    7800GTX 512mb availability

    in france the gtx 512 has barely even made it to reviewers... since launch, no shop has EVER had it in stock (i called them). when the 7800gtx and gt whas launched, we had them in stock the same day as you guies in the states. obviously nvidia's "immediate availability" hardocp was praising was...

    http://www.theinquirer.net/?article=28257 it was only really available on release day. it seems like it's tuning into a press edition card. i've been trying to get my hands on one (2 :rolleyes: ) for a while... why wont the big [H] say anything ?? I WANT MY CARDS

    ATI Radeon X1800 XT Evaluation @ [H]

    i have just a question concerning noise : i have had a gigabyte x800xt pe, it would make noise for about a second on POST, and then shut up and be inaudible (open case, even with my ear next to it). i just got 2 7800GTs and SLIed them. 1) one of those cards makes *much* more noise then my...

    ATI Radeon X1800 XT Evaluation @ [H]

    x1600 supports AVIVO, suposidly meaning you have 2 dual link connectors supporting 2560 x 1600... 10 bit per color.... blablabla...

    ATI Radeon X1800 XT Evaluation @ [H]

    an adjective which is relevant in the description on a graphics card... :rolleyes: ok i've got a good one for you yes, he said it, "design elegance". i like the "current availability". Yes a card which is not even officially available yet can't really hold availability against an...

    ATI Radeon X1800 XT Evaluation @ [H]

    i could do a review like that by reading the specs. it's funny cause they dont seem to slash the 6800u scores so much for a dual slot design , especially cause the ATI dual slot design provides a heat exaust, so that when you install one of these, the case temp doesn't rise... (quoted from...

    ATI Radeon X1800 XT Evaluation @ [H]

    Since they wouldn't stop mentioning back in the x800 vs 6800 days that ati didn't have sm3.0, it would have been fair to taunt nvidia about tearing and shimmering, which does affect gameplay ecperience (especially HDR wasn't playable with just one 6800u). turns out now ati has sm3.0 + a better...
