1) the 9 cell battery
2) the 130watt power brick

In a month or two I may have to put one in my 9300 and sell my 6800go on ebay or something.
I think it's funny how half of the people who won't game on laptops have 6800gt level cards in their desktops.
You can get a inspiron 9300 with a go6800 and Dothan for around $1000.00. (17" lcd)
Although it requires buying a 9 cell battery and 120watt power brick you can install at 7800gtx...

Let's be realistic here.
No it cant do everything an nVidia card can do, but there is a work around for the missing vtf which allows ATI to "mimic" the function with a proxy routine. You are standing on semantics. At any rate I think its early to say whether this will be a real world...
Both cards are the same approximate size.
There is no contest in sound quality imo.
I think saying "none of the features matters to me" is overlooking several cool features, and Im no fan of bloatware. The different modes thing is actualy cool and usefull imo.
With xfi you dont have...
To encode mp3's a compression formula or "mathematical equation" is used.
The same equation can theoreticaly be applied in reverse to obtain the original sound.
8 / 2 = 4
4 x 2 = 8
If you go clawhammer you might get a C0. If so you will be stuck with 1t command rate, so expect the likelyhood of mediocre overclocks if you have double sided dimm's. The cg's are better able to handle double sided dimms.
for todays games 1gb is a must for me. I have a 3200C0 clawhammer...
Very interesting, but as long as you have to buy a high $$$$ Alienware to utilize this technology it will go nowhere.
Most of us wouldnt buy a commercial built p.c. if we were filthy rich.
When it hits mainstream they will get my attention. So now we just wait for mainboards with two...
there is also beta version 1.25.
Im currently running it and its has allowed me to boot and run much higher htt speeds than 1.1 did.

Wait a minute, hold the phone!
Not 5 minutes after my last post I got my tracking number from BB.
UPS shows today as the delivery date, it must have shipped yesterday.
Next time I go with compusa though. I would have saved $50.00 with the convertible coupon and problably got my card...
I pre-ordered on 5/06. As of 7:30am EST my order say's this,
Status: 1 item(s) - Order in process of being fulfilled; Usually ships in 1 - 2 days.
p.s. they just charged my card.
Woot! Its been a long wait.
Dont step in that steaming pile of ^Abit Kv8pro^!!!!!
At least not untill you hear numerous reports of locked bus's and sweet overclocks.
I want to like an Abit board, but my Kv8pro is an absolute mess imo.
If you are interested in this board you owe it to yourself to read this thread...
I cant find the "momo force" at any retailer, and believe it or not I only find 2 on ebay. People who own them love them and aint getting rid of them. As much as I would never buy something from ebay, I would jump on one of these if it was the only option...
to be honest, I dont believe a TSW could be "noticeably" smoother or more precise than my momo force, and the tsw lacks ffb.
The momo force (red one) has steel ball bearings and its smooth as butter.
Its just that good, shame its discontinued. I would look high and low to find one...
Momo force, the precision force feedback wheel. Smooth as butter, accurate as a scalpel. Improved my nascar 2k3 lap consisitency alot. When TSW makes a ffb wheel I will go TSW, till then I love my momo force. (red one)...
I recommend downloading the IL2 Sturmovic demo.
The graphics are truly a thing of beauty.
One of the missions in the IL2 demo has you start on a muddy, tourchlit field, in the pouring rain. You take off through a thunderstorm, its cool as scat.
The clouds look real.
The sequel...
I suggest downloading a memtesting app like memtest86+.
run memtest for a few hours and see if you get any errors in order to rule out hardware issues.
It sounds as if your os has become corrupt. Have you overclocked excessively, or run tras to low? If you have an ati card/winxp...
xp disables itself and wont let you log on at boot. It then prompts you to register. You cant access the os until you register.

All 3 of my znf3-150's could run 225fsb with 2 x 512 3500L2 Mushy (2,3,2,7) 9800pro, 3200+.
Which is a good thing.

The second arrived with dimm slot 1 dead.
The third ran fine...
most of those popups I got were caused my microsoft messenger.
I disabled messenger in outlook express options.
I uninstalled messenger in add/remove windows components.
I remaned the messenger folder to messenger.off and ran a registry cleaner to clean up the trash.
