    video card brand: how loyal are you?

    I currently favor nVidia since I like their driver software much more than ATi's, but I usually let real-world tests determine who gets first dibs on my wallet :-) Card progression: 1. 3dfx Voodoo2 (great card, Quake 2 ran smooth as glass) 2. first-gen Radeon (didn't have DDR memory, but...

    Can't go past 229 FSB

    I'm having a weird problem trying to overclock and I'll explain it. These are my current system specs: Opteron 148 (@ stock speed) 1GB Corsair Value Select DDR400 dual-channel kit Radeon X1300 Pro (don't laugh, it's a temp card :) ) MSI K8N SLI motherboard Antec TruePower 550W PSU The...

    Video card for 1920x1200?

    2 7800GT's in SLi match and sometimes exceed a GTX 512 in some benchmarks.

    Vid Card for WOW

    A 6800GT or X800XL/X850 Pro would be a good choice.

    Who's all going to get the new Dell 30" FPW?

    Three most important parts of the computer IMO are the monitor, mouse, and keyboard; if any of those is giving you trouble, you won't be happy no matter how powerful the computer itself is. I'm predicting a price of no lower than $1800 for the 3007, but unless you already have a video card...

    Dell 30" FPW?

    Assuming a potential owner already has a beast of a system with a dual-link DVI video card; if not, tack on an extra $300.

    Gateway's FPD2185W: a 21in widescreen 2005fpw killer!

    Half-Life 2 DOES support 1680x1050 natively; you simply go into the video options, select the 16:10 aspect ratio, then pick 1680x1050 or any other 16:10 resolution.

    best videocard for around 150 dollars?

    That's only because you moved from a card with poor OpenGL support (9800 Pro) to one that is OpenGL's bitch (6600GT).

    Alternatives to the 2405FPW?

    There's also Apple's 23" Cinema Display; doesn't have the input variety the 2405 does, but it gets the job done for me, and I do find it's all-aluminum enclosure appealing :) . Currently priced at $1299, or $1099 if you can get the education discount.

    Are Apple LCD's for gamers

    I'm pretty sure a lot of the newer NVidia's don't post either I've tested my CD on my 5200 all the way up to a few 6800GTs, and they showed the POST screen.

    Which vid card for dual 23" Apple Cinema

    Pretty much any card with two DVI ports will work.

    Are Apple LCD's for gamers

    I have the 23" Every now and then I consider getting the 2405 for simply cash in the pocket and the fact that I could see the POST screen during boot. That's a video card issue, not a problem with the monitor itself. I see the BIOS screen with a spare FX 5200 I have lying around, but I don't...

    Poll: Team Cinema unite!

    I've noticed an alarming trend; Dell is winning more and more converts with their monitors. I myself own a 23" Apple Cinema Display because I wanted a big widescreen monitor and fell in love with the Cinema Displays at first sight. I know I'm not alone out there, so I'm inviting all users with...
