    SFF Build Assistance - Gaming / Overclocking

    1. What will you be doing with this PC? PC Gaming, Professional Photo/Video editing, Overclocked. 2. What's your budget? Cost is not a factor, so long as its within reason. I do not want to get into custom chassis design if that is a worry. Figure I want a nice chassis, a quality PSU, and a...

    Corsair SP2500 2.1 Speaker System Review @ [H]

    Great work on this review Kyle and Earl. Thank you for reviewing this product! For those people trying to compare 4.1/5.1 Promedia and Logitech solutions, try to keep in mind that those are $400.00 MSRP while the Corsair is $250.00. The Promedia 2.1 comparisons are very much valued. Corsair...

    AMD 6970/6950 CFX and NVIDIA 580/570 SLI Review @ [H]

    My guess is you have the ram to deal with the AA levels, however you lack the raw horsepower in the GPU to shove around that many pixels at playable framerates at those resolutions. If you scale down the resolutions, of course you will have something much more appealing.

    AMD 6970/6950 CFX and NVIDIA 580/570 SLI Review @ [H]

    Thank you Kyle and Brent - Yet again providing the results that keep me coming back to the [H]. The results were about what I expected, with the exception of how well ATI did in the F1 test. Very impressive stuff there by the red team.

    ASUS ENGTX580 Video Card Review @ [H]

    The 5xxx series saw CFX scaling in the 90-95% range with the vast majority of cards and games. Even the 4xxx had very good scaling of its mainstream and enthusiast level cards in both real-world gameplay and synthetic. What I feel is even more astounding than the scaling levels of both Nvidia...

    ASUS ENGTX580 Video Card Review @ [H]

    Outstanding article! You took roughly $500 and pitted AMD against Nvidia which is *exactly* what I hoped [H] would do in a review. The insights into the abilities of each video card are quite on the mark and all in all this is an excellent review! I even learned something abuot the edge-detect...

    AMD Radeon HD 6970 and 6950 Video Card Review @ [H]

    All of you poor folks that think you'll just load up a 2nd ATI 68xx or 69xx series card and gush away at the Crossfire capabilities need to wake up. Stepping to a multigpu environment is NOT just as slapasshappy as popping another GPU in and watching it go. Microstutter is a bitch. Games...

    New AMD Catalyst 10.10e Hotfix Available

    I've tested MLAA across many different titles and have not experienced anything like this. MLAA exhibited no more lag than without it being enabled. That was on 10.10d with no Application Profiles installed. I have not yet tested 10.10e

    CoD: Black Ops Issues

    specs in sig... hit and miss in multiplayer depending on the server. seems that some servers are smooth and others (with same or equivalent 60ms ping) are stuttering.. better, but still not MW1 level smooth.

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 Video Card Review @ [H]

    I can't believe I only paid $264 for a GTX 280 while it was still regularly sold at Newegg considering its debut cost.. Amazing.

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 Video Card Review @ [H]

    I'm in the same boat as your roomate, and I absolutely agree with you. While the feature has some definite appeal from a performance standpoint, the IQ cons outweigh the pros in my opinion. Thankfully, its an option and people can experiment for themselves.

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580 Video Card Review @ [H]

    Very interesting! I was curious as to the performance of the dual 470 and 6870 primarily keeping to the 580's current and msrp price tag. Bang for the buck seems pretty strong in either direction, though I'm with you on the noise issue. When I switched from the GTX 280 to the 6870s, I was...
