    upgrade to 4850 or 4870?

    i don't understand why its better to go with a 4870 at 24" and 4850's at 1600x1200 resolution? i've been browsing toms and 3d guru and charts always seem to indicate that at larger resolutions the cards get closer to each other in performance. at 1600x1200 and below the gap between the two...

    Out of the loop since 2005 need a plan of action

    hopefully someone with a little more experience chimes in, but i'll give you some stuff to start you out... atm DDR3 isn't worth the price, stick with DDR2. since it doesn't sound like you plan to OC i'd go with DDR2 800. these G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 are really...

    1st Build jitters

    i'm new here so don't believe everything i say. however... for browsing the internet and watching dvd's the Q9950 seems like overkill. with a 32" lcd i'd consider dropping down at least to a 6600, then taking the extra money and upgrading the 4850 to a 4870. good luck on your first...

    Recommend me a 22"

    bump. i was considering that Acer as well. there were a few user reviews on the right that said it was excellent for gaming but I'd like to get some input from some [H] members before i make the purchase. the price for what looks to be an excellent 22" is very appealing.
