The Card
One of the three fans (closest to the rear of the case) seems to have some ball bearing/friction/lubrication issues.
When the card is turned off, and I spin the fan blades with my finger, the fan in question stops very quickly after I apply a force to it, where as the other 2...
I ordered JVC HARX700 headphones from Adorama a week ago. I found out 20 minutes ago that they still have not shipped my order. Apparently their website doesn't tell you when your item is not in stock; It just takes your money and back orders the item.
They gave me a free upgrade to UPS Ground...
Hey guys! I'm new to the audio section of the forum, so I thought I'd break the ice with a request aaand a recommendation of mine.
Request:
Looking for a good headset for under $30. I could browse amazon and pick the one that looks the flashiest, since that's all I'd really be going off of...
Hey guys! I'm about to pull the trigger on a set of video cards. I know that most cards of the same model will CF perfectly well, but I wanted to be sure before making my purchase. I hope you'll excuse my insecurity.
So, will these two cards crossfire together well enough?

HardOCP recently reviewed how a few setups performed in BF3. You can find the link as a sticky/announcement on the front page, or at the bottom of this post.
They compared the 580 to the 6970, both in single and dual GPU modes, and found the following in 1920x1200 resolution with ultra settings...
I've been in the market for a new system/video card setup for a while. One of the main things influencing my decision to go single/multi (nvidia/ati) has been Microstutter.
If I'm understanding everything correctly:
1. Vsync makes your graphics card wait until your monitor is ready to refresh...
Questiion is in the title. When purchasing my new card (sli/cf), I'd like the ability to confirm the amount of stutter in my system. Seems a good way to visualize this are the Frames Per Second vs Time graphs that HardOCP and Toms use.
Can anyone tell me what software this is?
I have to apologize, as I just don't know a whole lot about processors. I have my graphics cards/system all ready to go (sli 560 ti's). I'm just looking for a CPU that can play BF3 at 120 fps, 1680x1050 resolution at whatever settings I can muster.
Will the 2500k bottleneck me? What can you...
Peeps say that sli/crossfire systems often give their users trouble around 30fps. Apparently, microstuttering makes 30fps look look like ~20fps. I'm wondering if this remains true for the higher end of the fps spectrum. If my sli/crossfire system is getting 100~ fps, will it SEEM like I'm...
This might be the wrong forum, and if so I apologize in advance for my mistake.
I will be picking up a 6990 soon. Despite the VGA splurge, I'd like to stay on budget with the rest of my PC. What CPU/PSU/MOBO would you guys recommend, that will allow the 6990 to do its thing without breaking...
I'm about to upgrade, and I'm curious what card or card(s) I should buy. I have a 16x10 monitor that can go up to 120hz refresh, so ideally I'd like a setup that can run the latest games (bf3) on high (plenty of eye candy), at a minimum of 100 fps during intense action.
Thanks!
