    Help: overclocking on 880G Pro3

    I can't seem to find anyway to lower the HT or NB multi in uefi. I've been able to hit 3.3ghz with 235 fb, but can't get higher than that. I've tried on the software side with their tuner program, but even when I lower the HT multi nothing happens and AMD overdrive won't let me change any...

    Hyper 212+ using two fans

    Just upgraded my cpu(from 7750 to 720), and decided to put a second fan in. Now it might be my application of AC5, was using the thermal pad that came with the cooler before, but I noticed a significant temp drop. Before: Idle: Mid 30s (33-37C) Load: High 40s, Low 50s (never past 53C) Now...

    When to sell my GTX 260?

    Want to upgrade to a 5850/70, but waiting for prices to return to msrp. Should I sell my XFX 260 (GX260NADFF) now, while it has a decent resell value or wait for my new card. Selling it now means I'll either have to rely on my igp or a mates 1900xt (wouldn't mind a break from gaming). So what...

    22" Sammy or 23" Hannspree?

    Looking at purchasing either of these monitors. I would be using this monitor mainly for gaming with a 260 (216). Is the higher resolution on the Hanns worth it? I also have a 26" lcd tv which I'll be using. Hannspree $203 (w/tax) Samsung$190

    Pricing: 260 and 4870

    I assume I can't go wrong with either card (216) or (1gb) @ 1920x1080. What I'm wondering is, since I hardly follow current news, why the price drop for the 260? (XFX for $170 amir). The 4870 price seems to have dropped a bit as well (Sapphire @ 190), but no mir for the most popular cards...

    Is a 4870 1GB too much?

    Recently sold my 3870 and purchased a 4870, but I feel like it might be overkill for playing at 720p. Would a 4830 suffice? Price difference is approx. $130, which I could put towards a monitor or a new cpu, or just hold on to till price drops. System is in sig. Thanks.

    Help find me a psu

    The first obstacle is that it has to fit in my htpc case, which is 5.8" wide (athenatech A100BB). The second is that I'm cheap, so $40 or lower is the target. Here is my rig: X2 2400 ECS Micro Atx 2GB 800 Powercolor 3870 7200 HDD Dvd/dvd-r Current psu is 270, and while it does the...
