    HP Mini 1000

    Btw i got a quick solution to the HP mini keyboard if it is indeed scratching your screen when closed. you can buy those small felt pads they use for furniture so it won't scratch your wood floor. i've seen small black ones before that you can cut even smaller and attached to either top right...

    Success!

    Sorry i wasn't able to reply till today. My friend took his computer home with him so i wasn't able to do more test. I ask him to run Coretemp to check the volts and he said it's at 1.2375v at 3.8ghz currently. I was running it at 4.0ghz at the same voltage for 10-15mins last weekend w/ sp2004...

    7800GT DVI->HDMI = Green Screen

    I heard westinghouse can authorize Bestbuy to do the exchange if you bought it there. But you need westinghouse to start the process. I believe someone was able to do it that way. They drop it off at a BB and BB ships it to them. But it's up to westinghouse how they want to handle it, but it...

    7800GT DVI->HDMI = Green Screen

    DVI should work at 1080p. i've tested both DVI1 and DVI2 on mine and they work perfect. some people have reported DVI port #2 having issues since that port shares a bridge of some sort with the HDMI. But im positive your HDMI port can't run 1080p. Hence when you run 1080i on it it works fine...

    7800GT DVI->HDMI = Green Screen

    The white sparkles is definitely a westy issue with the HDMI interface on the LCD not being able to run 1080p. This has been fixed with version 1.0 and some or most of version 1.19 firmware. As for the ps3/westy thats a completely different issue with the HDMI interfaces not being able to...

    7800GT DVI->HDMI = Green Screen

    Just curious what version westy 42" do you have? What i mean is the firmware on it? If you go to AVSforums a lot of people have problems running 1080p through HDMI. I have version 1.16 and i tried hooking up my HTPC through the HDMI at 1080p and i get white sparkles all over the screen. The...

    Anyone try 8800gtx SLI with 8x/8x pci-e slots? going to try this on a DFI nforce4

    btw to the OP. i had two 7900gt's in SLI. I ran COH with my SLI setup and framerates were crap. I couldn't figure it out of for the longest time. I was re-installing drivers to no avail. I did a quick search and i found out that you have to turn off this one setting in the game that messes it...

    PS3 impressions. Let's hear what you think!

    Hey Jiffylush, I've heard a couple of peeps at avsforums having issues (sparkles) with 1080p over hdmi with the 42" westy. What version of the 42" westy do you have (firmware)? I have version 1.16 for my 42" westy and i have yet to try 1080p over hdmi since i don't have a source for it yet.

    Which Black Friday cards should I consider?

    i believe there's really no great BF deals for high end video cards... there is a midrange 7600gt pci-e 256mb at circuitcity for $89.99 i believe on BF. Not a bad deal if your looking something cheap. but i would go with what Gotenks326 said if you want something w/ more power than a 7600gt

    Played PS3 @ Target today

    My thoughts exactly, i played it last night at my local target and it was jaggies galore. Maybe it's just the demo games.

    Played the PS3 today

    yep, you're probably right..But it sure is nice to play games on a 1080p monitor. I have a 42" westy 1080p and id rather play on that than on a an old crt monitor..hehe

    Played the PS3 today

    I've played the ps3 last night at my local target. They had a demo system up and running. I played NBA07 and that motorstorm game. Frankly i wasn't that impressed. i don't know if it's the game or how it was setup, but i see jaggies everywhere. i checked the res and it was only running 720p so...

    FS: 2 EVGA 7900gt 256mb w/ Zalman VF900.

    Huge improvement on counter strike, but like azn says you can't tell the difference unless you run in high res with everything turned up. i have the game but never play it, but i believe it never goes down 100fps w/ everything turned up at 1920X1200 res on my 2405. i can run BF2 at 1920X1200 w/...

    Do these temperatures look ok with my new vf 900?

    You need to have good airflow flowing around the video card. I have a 120mm fan blowing right into my two 7900gt's w/ vf900. I noticed that when i take the fan out my temps go up almost 10c. I have a lian li case so airflow is not a problem. but i guess if there's not a good airlfow around...

    Thermalright XP-120 + Yate Loon 120mm = unmountable?!

    or if you dont' want to go through all that trouble you can always use zipties. i did it on my xp-120 on the video card side. Since i had a thermalright V1-ultra the clips got in the way. so i used zipties on one side and it holds really well. the only thing is if you like to take the fan on and...

    AIW x1900 on SGO1 ....

    thanks nice to know..too bad none of these companies really list exact dimensions of the card, or do they? i just haven't seen it probably. It would suck to order the card only to find out it won't fit..hahaha that would suck. but thanks for the input guys

    AIW x1900 on SGO1 ....

    AIW x1900 on SGO1 ....

    Yah i tried that. I have SLI 7900gt's on my main rig and pulled one out and had it running on the SG01. Fits fine. Reason i asked is the AIW x1900 is about 10" long i believe. longer than the 7900gt. i guess it'll probably fit, but a tight fit.

    What xbox 360 games support 4 players? (not on live)

    sweet i think i'll go ahead and get them. $30 brand new in box wireless controllers and $5 for the rachargable battery is not a bad deal. i guess i can always unload them for a minimal loss if i ever decide i don't need them.
