I just received my Crossover but I have noticed short flickering lines on the display. They appear green and are horizontal, they get worse around the windows start menu and Steam window. I have a gtx 670 and the problem has only appeared on the crossover. I am guessing it may be the D-DVI...

It says up to, so I would assume that it only improves performance in some areas, not the the overall performance. I am not being an AMD fanboy here, I don't see the point in doing so but I do have to say that this is in no way comparable.

Phase? I asked a friend, he listened to the problem he said it wouldn't be that. Something to do with cancellation right? What exactly would the problems be if the phase was wrong?

I have been using a pair of dirt cheap headphones until I can get the Corsair 1500's in a month or so and just recently I have been having some weird problems. Things like "echoey" sound, very quite sound or no sound at all. However, when the headphone is jiggled or turned in the jack I can very...

Okay, I asked the friend who helped me build the computer about overclocking, he said he got the RAM so I could have the extra speed for when I do overlock the CPU. Thanks for help, just wanted to make sure I wasn't wasting any money!

Okay, so in the BIOS there is a setting related to the frame buffer size. It was at 64mb and could be upped to 480mb, Speccy now detects that i have 512mb of dedicated memory not 64mb. Batman does not crash and I can play all games fine. Thanks for pointing me towards the BIOS djgizmo!

For my new machine I purchased an 8Gb kit of DDR3 G.Skill RAM at 2133MHz. When I check the speeds in the BIOS however it says it is at 1600MHz. Why is this happening?

For my new machine I used an 8Gb kit of DDR3 G.Skill Ripjaws at 2133Mhz. When I look at the speed of the RAM in the BIOS however it says the speeds are at 1600Mhz. Is something wrong? What should I do?

Wow, looks like I could up the core clock speed from the 500Mhz to something a bit higher ... But since I have not overclocked before, I feel as if it could go terribly wrong. If it did go wrong, it would not only wreck my CPU but my MB as well. What would should I do? Okay, I have looked and...

I have 8Gbs of RAM, so could I assign more? It looks like it is dynamic, the maximum is 1.7Gb and the minimum is 64 mb, so increase the minimum? Thanks heaps, this is what I was looking for And also Speccy says the CPU temps are at 50 when I do something stressful.

Yes their newest drivers are from 3/9/2011... http://downloadcenter.intel.com/ From there right?

Hey, I have been building my dream computer and I have everything except the GPU (crazy right?!) As a placeholder I have been using the CPU's integrated graphics which is an Intel Family HD Graphics 3000. So anyway, not surprisingly it isn't the best for gaming, not just performance wise but...
