    ps3 hook up for monitor?

    I also have the same monitor, and I am thinking of hooking up the PS3 to it, however I have one big concern. As far as I know, the Samsung 226BW resizes and rescales all video input if it's not the native resolution of 1680x1050. Is there any way to stop it from doing that and just put black...

    Benchmarking the Benchmarks @ [H]

    This benchmarking the benchmarks only manages to reinforce that the timedemos that Anandtech and other websites use are relevant. In Hardocp's real time testing the Radeon 3870 X2 is 85% as fast as the 8800 GTX. Looking at the built in Island GPU time demo comparison, the Radeon 3870 X2 is 88%...

    R700.. coming soon

    Man, all of this R700 info makes me wish I had gotten that new product testing co-op job at ATi for the winter, well it was something related to product testing anyway. Oh well, thanks for the info Kyle. (that said, I love where I did end up for my co-op)

    ATi HD 3870 X2 (R680); Official Specifications & Images

    Plus, if the R680 is indeed a proof-of-concept for the R700, it will mean that there will be much more resources spend on making CrossFire work, which will also have benefits for those who want to use the 3870 and 3850 in CrossFire. The one thing that has kept me from moving towards CrossFire...

    3870 Instock at last

    I know, or rather, am drawing the conclusion, because my HIS Radeon 3870 shipped from NCIX at roughly 6:30 PST last night (Friday) after being on backorder for a week. In addition to this, I checked NCIX's HIS Radeon 3870 listing and it hasn't changed since when it was originally backordered...

    3870 Instock at last

    They're instock at NCIX, while it doesn't say it's in stock it's likely because they received the shipment later in the day on Friday, if you order it now I'm fairly confident you'll get one on Monday since NCIX shipped mine out last night just before they closed...

    w00t! Abit P35-E

    I have a question about the IP35-e. Will the Crucial Ballistix PC2-8500 DDR2-1066 CL5-5-5-15 RAM work fine with the motherboard?

    New Build - Need Help Finetuning

    Thanks for the reply, I switched my platform over to the Abit IP35-e motherboard and Q6600 CPU, with everything else being the same, and ordered my parts after some more research and talking to friends. I really really wanted to go with AMD but unfortunately the CPUs just aren't there, and I...

    AMD Phenom & Spider & Intel QX9770 Comparo @ [H]

    I am conflicted at this point, I wanted to go with AMD for my 2-3 year rebuild, but I am unsure of what to at this point now that the reviews have come out. I really like AOD, and I really like the 790FX chipset, but right now it seems that the Phenoms fall flat their face. Do we know when...

    New Build - Need Help Finetuning

    Thanks for the reply :) I have some concerns with the heatsink and RAM, if someone could clear this up it would be appreciated. I have now decided to go with the Thermalright ULTRA-120 Extreme over the Thermalright ULTIMA-90 that is in my original post. However my big concern with it is...

I have the parts mostly picked out, however it would be appreciated if I could get input and suggestions, especially with regards to the compatibility of the various parts. The computer I am...
