    Could Nvidia get away with what AMD is currently (possibly) doing?

    Focus Group members are alive and well in this one. Keep up the good work! :rolleyes:

    Any reason to buy a Wii U?

    If the Wii U has a 4670/4770 GPU and has EDRAM (free AA), it has to be lightyears faster GPU-wise than the Xbox 360. An actual order of magnitude faster. Not to mention the 4xxx SP's are programmable... The Wii U is much faster on the GPU and comparable on the processor. For console gaming that...

    How's a 1035t for gaming?

    Thats probably it. The extra Intel hs is likely an increase of minimum frames here and there, affecting the average.

    NVIDIA Geforce GTX 590 Video Card Blows Up on Video - Forceware Drivers Blamed

    This is Happy's thing. As you already know what happened at Atech, this should be no news to you. Happy, GET REAL. TechPowerup is a legit site. Calling them BS reviewers is crazy. If you would like, I can pull up times in the past that you referenced them in your arguments. Do you really want...

    Why does FireFox4 Spool up my CF setup when going on internet???

    Just installed FF4 to check out the GPU accel... WOW! So much faster than Chrome now. I'm making the switch again!

    nVidia eVGA 8800 GTS 320 MB vs AMD Radeon HD 6850 1GB - how do they compare?

    Going from a Radeon 3850 > 8800GTS 320mb > Radeon 4830 oced > Radeon 6870, there was a noticeable difference in going from the 8800 to the 4830. The difference in GPU limited games going from a 4830 to the 6870 was double and at time 3fold faster in the minimums category. Here's a sample form...

    PCI-E 1x video cards?

    I'd be worried about power delivery if you cut down a 1x slow to fit a 16x slot. 1/16 the power?

    Just got my 6870 and got some concerns

    Adj. 1 unverifiable - (of e.g. evidence) not objective or easily verified. Your claims of these cards have no substance. I can say my friends and their Subaru Impreza sedans dropped a transmission within the first 6 months. None of my friends with Subaru Impreza hatchbacks dropped one so...

    2 4870x2 crossfire for big performance boost?

    The 4870x2 (and all other 3xxx+4xxx cards) are DX10. Unless DX11 is a requirement, that shouldn't be holding him back.

    Just got my 6870 and got some concerns

    A "sample size" of your "friends" is by no means scientific. Not to mention this is completely unverifiable. Unless you have some hard data to back up your claims, you should say so from the start. Quality of components? Again, hard data. What about their components? If anything, their...

    Just got my 6870 and got some concerns

    You keep spreading this FUD about Sapphire cards. I've asked you to back up your claims in other threads but you refuse to reply? Each of my last 6 ATI cards have been non-reference Sapphire cards and they have been holding up perfectly well. My old 3850 in CF in my brother PC is OCed...

    Rumor has it that the 28 nm cards from AMD/NVIDIA come out this year -Worth the wait?

    Rumors? From who? Last I heard, we're talking about Q2-Q3 2012 for the new process.

    Which setup would be faster: Pentium D vs. Dual Xeon

    Then you seem to be interested in keeping around a dog slow computer! You could easily sell on PC ($110, at least) and get a much faster Core2. Keep in mind the Core2 (2mb+ L2) is about 2x as fast per clock, so a 3ghz C2D is about as fast as a Pentium D @ 6ghz. Even with 4 threads the Xeon...

    Best video card for WoW, Black Ops, and BFBC2

    This went too far OT. War Zone keeps the trolling alive I guess. OP, 6950 looks like the best bet sans the crazy sales that have randomly been popping up.
