I often times see people with mempry timings in their sigs and then I look at the chipset you are running and well it makes me smile.
2-2-2-5 or whatever you like, you guys seem to love those low numbers for purpose of proving your e-penis is HUGE but you are likely loosing performance. Not a...
lol
ati has been making chipsets for years.
I am waiting for crossfire, just because everyone has SLI and I like to be different.
in the end I woud say current generation parts are pretty equal chipsets gpu all close to same performance.
I loved my express 200 chipset board...
Here is what confuses me so much.
ATI did this time what is or was considered business as ussual for the graphics game.
Nvidia broke with tradition and did paper launch and real lauch same time so now the world expects that all the time?
Come on its one time they did it and now everyone...
I buy into it but the graphs are skewed as its PR.
But I take from this it looks liek they matched nvidia so its gonna be like the x800 vs 6800 all over again.
what did you expect, for things to be lopsided one way or another?
I don't think the egoes or the desire to make a buck will...
for me prime 95 while running the videocard artifact tester from ati-tool and then just for grins I have my tv tuner on and I am watching a flick, and I am watching a dvd with powerdvd.
Now here is the key, my system can run for hours on end and not hiccup.
But here is what always lets me...
I have both of these speakers(newly aquired however)
today was the first time I situations permitted me to "test" them out
OMFG there is no reason for computer speakers to get that loud.
I sat in front of the z-5300e for a whole song at max volume and well I don't feel well now.
Thats...
I have an ISA AWE64
pci express is the future agp is the past, If the industry didn't evolve and force us to upgrade I know I would still be runnning a k6 chip and probably S3 graphics.
on a side note what is the fastest chip you can get that would fit in an agp mobo anyways.
I havent...
I need to stop and think when is when enough, that its a matter of which card works best at a high ass resolution that ima spend the money to hit anyways, ati, nvidia its the same old thing ima spend the cash and ima hit the resolitions I wanted, wtf do I care about 10 fps for?
It's just dawned...
voltage is 1.35 volts (this is a very special chip)
I did lie a little as it runs at 2799 not 2800 so my bad there. ;)
idle is right now as i type this 27 degrees with fans on low. I have a rheostat that is hooked to three tornadoes the smaller ones are rated at like 85 cfm I think and the...
its over clocked
thats your problem
set the setting to the corrrect cpu settings, just select run optimised settings in your bios then restart and I bet you cash all your worries are over.
hard drives click sometimes its prolly a cheap one(you said it was a maxtor...I would check the...
I don't have the budget for 7800's or even sli so I was just wondering what the "best" budget system is on here...here is my system and the prices.
athlon 3000+ venice(stable all day long at 2.8gz, and runs at 25c idle and 31 load)- 150 bux
chaintech zenith mobo- 80 bux
2 gig of kingmax...
I bought two audigy 2's, and my friend bought one too. All were brand new unopened so I thought wow what a deal we got.
everyone of them has mad static on either the rear or the center channel, its the rear on two of them and the center on the last one.
We both have logitech speakers but I...
i have a 2001fp so that works out perfectly for me.
out of curiosity are they planning a x1800 crossfire release at the same time of the other x1800's or is it gonna take forever to get those?
I ran an ati chipset for almost a year, continuing to wait for the crossfire boards to appear untill I gave up and bought a nf4ultra board to tide be over as the older amd ati chipset just sucked for anything other and my grandma's pc. I will never own another nvidia card so long as I can avoid...
The rage chip on my x800xl is only being seen by windows xp as an "unknown" I am wondering if the two little dip switches on the video card do anything at all? Anyone have a clue what they do? Even better would be if someone could help me with my sapphire x800xl 512mb I just need a starting...
my x800xl works awesome in eveyrthing I throw at it.
I have an amd machine though.
I also run it at 1600x1200 with 4aa and 16x aniso
I never get below about 50 fps
not sure what your issue is but it isnt the vid card as x800xl flies
Ok
I bought a set of 5300e logitechs and I also plan on running dual audigy 2's running one to my logitech speakers and the other to headphones and a set of yamaha speakers that have amazing high range hopefully to even out the pitiful highs on the logitechs. I already have a set of nice...
I am going to upgrade both my sound card and speakers in the next couple weeks(when newegg has x-fi's on sale honestly).
Now I am wondering what I should do all over again.
I listen to music and play games about 50 50 split, I love crisp highs and good midrange before I want bone jarring...
be careful
they are wrong on what they recommend for their gpus
I got the one recomended and it didn't fit, I modded it so it does now but trust most wouldnt want it in their computer the way I had to do it.
I would stay where your at and don't switch till you are ready to buy a new video card too and go with a pci-express board and vidcard later on.
what you have is fine for you right now.
I have two visiontek XTASY x800 non pro 128 mb pxi express cards.
I want to trade them both for a single 16 pipeline card. XT XL 6800 gt or ultra I don't care as long as it has 16 pipes and is PCI-express
The better the card obviously the better for me, if super duper high end or you are very...
at this point it is a stupid thing
I look at the box now and I want to throw it and smash it.
I wish i had rma'd the thing, now I am screwed it looks like
I am gettig sick of self bumping this thing,
I am not going lower than this, Last ditch final rock bottom price for a friggin brand new never used nforce 4 sli board, 100 bux to your door.
come on
how can no one want this stupid thing
