    Creative Sound Blaster X7 Problems. No Sounds While Playing A Video Game. Need Help Please!!!

    If you haven't already you might check out the thread over on Head-Fi -- bunch of guys in there that are knowledgeable with this thing.

    [Amazon] Sound Blaster X7 Limited Edition -- $350 new, $293+ used (USD)

    Yeah, I'm going to pull the trigger on this or the LE bundle on the Creative site that's at $430 (includes the E-MU XM7 Speakers) - trying to decide if those speakers are worth it or not.

    ASUS GeForce GTX 1080 STRIX OC (Open Box) $578.98 @ NewEgg, Only One!

    I snagged it after seeing the OP -- impulse buy, was moving toward a used/clearance 980 TI for low 300's to hold me over but whatever. I'll post back what I get on an OC to see if there's anything to what you guys said above.

    Any official BF4 benchmarks anywhere yet?

    I'm glad to see HT isn't strictly needed -- was starting to regret cheaping out on the 4670. Good to see Haswell showing its muscle as well after the mostly negative reception it received at launch.

    Battlefield 4 Beta Gameplay and Performance Preview

    ^^ It would. I don't understand his logic either. Their experience mimic'd mine -- very hitchy with craptastic minimums on my 680. I'm chalking it up to the beta.

    Where is the launch for R290(x)?

    Everyone that keeps hammering the "AMD never said it would be the 15th" is rather amusing as pretty much everyone expected it to be 15th based on the leaked slides. I find it hard to believe that a majority of you didn't wake up Tuesday morning looking for reviews.

    GTX 680 - Time to upgrade?

    I'm having a hard time justifying a ≈25% more FPS increase for $650 (≈$400 after selling the 680). If the 680 had more VRAM it would be a no brainer to go SLI -- just have to see what it does in the games you play. Plus, at this point if I haven't jumped on the 780 yet there's...

    GTX 680 - Time to upgrade?

    I'm in the same boat -- waiting for BF4 retail benches to come out and will make a decision then. Hopefully 2 GB is sufficient for 1440P, in which case I'll pick up a used reference 680. If not, will look at the R9's as well as the the 780's if they drop the price. Gonna be tough to settle...

    GTX 480, idling at 68c

    If you're running two monitors it'll do that - something to do with it not being able to downclock or something.

    ATI HD Raedon 5870, less than 15 fps on High for BF3

    Rig in my sig (1900x1200) -- on Ultra, HBAO, Post AA High, MSAA None, Motion Blur off I'm getting mid 50's on average. Doesn't go much below 50, and not much above 60. Same settings but MSAA x2, and I take a 15-20 fps hit across the board. I believe the 5870 is comparable to the 480, so...

    GTX 580 SLI - Worth it for 1080p gaming?

    This thread is silly. If you got the cash have at it, if not then don't. Two cards are generally more of a pain in the ass than one card -- if you just want to play the damn games with little issues then stick with one card. If you're bored, or like the nerd status of having $1,000 worth...

    Help me decide for BF3 upgrade

    You need a quad bud -- I had your exact chip OC'd for Bad Company 2 and went to the 9550 and it was night and day. Hard to justify $200 for a S775 quad though, you might as well pick a 2500K with the Asrock mobo and 8gb of ram that everyone and their brother gets around here for around...

    Seasonic Platinum-1000 Drawing

    Love my X750, I'm sure this one would be no different.

    New card or Zalman VF3000F?

    Yeah, at load on the stock cooler I have to ramp the fan up to 65-70% to keep the temps under 90°C and it gets annoying. Like I said, I'll just swap the cases and see what BF3 really requires. If it needs two cards I'll pick up a couple of 6950's since this board will only do Crossfire. The...
