    Old machine, new gpu?

    Ok, so I've got an almost 4 year old machine. Here are the specs. C2D E6700(2.6ghz) Asus P5N-E 4gigs RAM gtx 260 (216) 1680x1050 With those specs, is it at all worth it to upgrade to a gtx460 or am I already bottle-necking the 260? I think I know, but I've been reading around, and...

    geforce upgrade?

    Well I guess Ill find out how good the gtx260 is. I went ahead and bought the corsair 750 psu too, who knows what the future holds. The only thing that bothers me is that the 9800gtx+ has a 10billion better texture fill rate.

    geforce upgrade?

    Also, I think my main board only supports pci-e 1.1 x16? Are the 9800gtx+ cards backwards compatible, and with this information would it be worth it to upgrade from my 8800gts? edit: ok I found out that the 2.0 cards work with 1.1 pcie Still, what do you all think about upgrading to a...

    geforce upgrade?

    Ok, thanks for the advice guys. I think Ill probably look into a 9800gtx+. Any recommendations on a specific 9800gtx+ unit? My machine uses this power supply. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817171013 I know what some say about the cooler masters, but this one...

    geforce upgrade?

    I currently run a single 8800 gts 320mb card in my machine, and I have been looking at some of the other geforce cards tonight. Would I see much improvement in gaming with a new card, like the 9800gtx? Could I SLI a 8800gts 320mb with a 8800gts 512mb(or a 8800 320mb OC)? How would 2 8800gts...

    mainboard memory type

    Hey all, I found this old gigabyte 865pe p4 titan main board in the box of one of my even older mainboards in a closet. I also have some ddr2 667 memory I found, does anyone know if the memory can be used my this mainboard? I wouldn't think so, but I thought I would ask anyway.

    Just got a 7600gs, now i have a problem

    none of the drivers that are supposed to work with my geforce 7600 are working. Right now typing this the display is slow as hell(refresh is fine 85hz), and it cannot play any videos(like a family guy .wma). I had a geforce 6600 before, and everytime I upgraded to a 90 series driver this would...

    Mainboard P4S8X SiS

    Iv got an old SiS P4S8X Asus board, and It says it can go up to 2.53GHZ and beyond with the CPU. What does "beyond" range to? I figure the description is older, so 2.5ghz was probably the fastest at the time.
