    ASUS R9 290X DirectCU II OC Video Card Review @ [H]

    I love these reviews.. such great content and excellent research yet they totally make it fluff by adding a pro amd statement after every evaluation.. come on, just stick to the facts and don't make a moral decision on pricing or why amd is better than NVidia at every turn. I've read every one...

    NFS: Shift 2 Unleashed

    I pasted in a dll called dinput8.dll and put it in my shift main directory. now the wheel has no delay (xbox 360 controller still has bad delay) but at least the Logitech Driving Force GT wheel is good. the force feed back is now toast but its a small price to pay obtain dinput8.dll by...

    AMD Catalyst 11.1 & Catalyst 11.1a Hotfix

    Time to give AMD some driver credit - i finally got the right combination of 11.1 and 11.1a (installed just the driver of 11.1a only, not the new ccc) and that worked! 11.1 now rockets - pulled a 55.9 fps avg on Heaven 2.1 w/ a single 6950 unlocked @ 950/1450 (was 53.1 fps at 960/1475)!

    AMD Catalyst 11.1 & Catalyst 11.1a Hotfix

    Using 11.1 now, 6950.. tried EVERYTHING to get 11.1a to work - those jumps in heaven and 3dmark11 have me wanting it. i even went so far as to completely re-install windows and run a pure fresh install straight to 11.1a - same exact bug i always get. 'If' it installs, when i reboot it will...

    Anyone still waiting for the pre-order gtx480?

    DASHIT, the only issue with cancel is provantage order direct from a big vendor. As a result, it takes a few days to cancel the order and you might not catch it. I'm moments away from doing it! they are not open saturday :mad: forget it, i'll just wait it out.. :confused: EVGA sounds so...

    Anyone still waiting for the pre-order gtx480?

    I know i should just cancel, but provantage took such good care of me in the past with an ASUS 5970. they did say it would be here around the 15th. I may just order from newegg now and get two when the pny comes in... hmm..

    does PCI2.0 x8 slots provide enough bandwidth for SLI?

    I have i5 5970 on a single 16x slot (equivalent to x8/x8) vs i7 5870 x16/x16 and i do notice the difference, almost 5 to 10% or so fps in increase fps with x58 16x/16x.

    GTX480 now shipping to customers (including Newegg)

    WabeWalker, you are completely full of horse shit. Semiaccurate provided almost all of the early info on GTX480. No question he's biased, but he's not full of horse shit. Now your claims are baseless. he has mountains of data going back over a year and you have a lot of claims like he 'makes...
