    GTX 670 2GB or 4GB for 1920x1080 ?

    Hey I'm a bit drunk and my input's probably not worth much but when nVidia released the 600 series I thought it was fairly apparent that the cards utilized vRAM differently than previous GPUs. I think that's evident considering that all of the reference cards haven't been higher than 2GB and...

    580 or 680 ? help.

    I think this horse is already a bloody mess on the ground but I forget what kind of performance gains overclocking the 580 had. I've had mine at 100mhz overclocked since the week I bought it so I don't remember. Considering that 680 seems kind of weird to overclock this might close the gap a...

    Worth ditching my 6870 for a 480?

    http://www.tomshardware.com/charts/2011-gaming-graphics-charts/Gamer-Index,2673.html That chart above is a pretty good comparison. Looks like 480 performs at about 140% of your card. 480's around $200? I can't say for sure what you should do. Based on the prices we're looking at for the newer...

    GTX 680 specs leaked

    I just checked the invoice in my email and see that on Dec. 5th, 2010 I bought my GTX 580 for $535CAD+sh+tax. At the time, for myself, that was a lot of money to spend and I half thought I was crazy. A lot of this talk of prices being ridiculous on nVidia's and ATi's new cards was kind of going...

    GTX 680 specs leaked

    This obsession is contagious. Either that or MSK anatomy is slightly dry. Either way, I'm pretty curious to hear something, here, as well.

    First news about Kepler from nVidia; high-end Kepler = 3x GTX 580?

    I don't agree with that logic. Why would they already have a prototype for the dual core GPU version of Kepler if they are having so many delays getting the actual Kepler out?

    Measuring VRAM usage?

    I use AIDA64 to monitor my vram, gpu usage, cpu usage by core, ram usage, temps on everything, clock speeds etc. The only thing that I couldn't get it to do is framerate. Unfortunately it's a paid program, if you're into paying for shit. It can also output to those mini-logitech lcds. EDIT: I...

    Hell of a deal. I would buy it.

    PC gaming build

    When I built my PC last year I had a much smaller budget. I went with a GTX 580 for the GPU and even though it accounted for half of what I wanted to spend I was happy that I did. I know you're not only gaming but if you go for say a Radeon 7970 (kind of hard to recommend a GTX 580 w/the small...

    CM storm Xornet mouse....

    I've recently bought a Storm Spawn and I love it. The buttons are all great, it's light and feels like a glove. I also bought a steelseries 4H w/it. Coming from a cloth pad and a Razer Lachesis I've been adapting a bit over the last week. I'm confident once I'm totally used to the new setup I'll...

    Battlefield 3 Single Player Performance and IQ Review @ [H]

    Someone posted about the FXAA blurriness on another forum I frequent so I enabled MSAA instead and the first time it loaded I was like, "holy shit, looks so much better!" I'm in the camp where the FXAA is really too blurry. It ruins beautifully rendered pixels. Also if I'm shooting non-scoped at...

    Get Ready for Black Ops 2

    I loved MW but wasn't gaming much when MW2 came out, so I never played it. When BO came out it coincided with me building a new PC so I bought it. I actually really enjoyed it, especially on my first run thru on MP. I play it once in a while now. Anyways, it's way better than a lot of games...

    Dual 6970 enough for 7680x1600?

    Give it a shot. If it doesn't perform to your liking just buy another. 6970's cost a lot less than 3011's! :)

    XFX Radeon HD 6990 Drawing!

    In the USA are you allowed to have AR-15's with shorter barrels than that? Like the length on the M4-Carbine?
