So I just bought a 8600 GTS OC, and yeah, after reading a lot of posts here I'm having some buyer's remorse. But I'm coming from a 6800GS AGP. I pretty much play WoW. I think I'll be happy with the change, but I'm still wondering if I reallllly should get an 8800. Does anyone have a rough...

And...I just have a question. Since hes on a strict, we needed a good video card at a decent price. So, I've never been an ATI guy, but I found an X800GT. Seems ok. What I'd like to know is...What is the closest nvidia counterpart, just to get an idea? Its agp, 256 mb. Thanks guys!

Yeah, yeah...I'm behind the times. But holy shit. I never showed any interest in F.E.A.R., but I went to a friend's, and he had the demo. Why not... MY GOD. I screamed. Especially when you go to the ladder, mount, turn around, look up and that little girl is RIGHT THERE...

The demos suck. I don't think the game is worth buying, and I'm a HUGE ST fan. The "swarm engine" is completely crap. In the outpost demo, I pick up the supplies, turn around, and there's about...err...60 bugs behind me. I can't beat it, I doubt anyone has. Does anyone actually...you...

Are they really worth it? If so, recommend me one. I'm sick of these crappy connections currently my packets are: 67,000 sent 18,000 received Been up for an hour and 16 minutes. I just want to actually be able to play bf2 again, because all of a sudden my signal went to crap.

I was just wondering. Some look pretty interesting, I just don't wanna pay for any.

Just a quick question about this card. Since its part of the 6800 family, it does have extra piplines/shaders that can be unlocked, right?

Yeah...ok... I just reformatted, and it's home edition. Its asking me to activate windows, so I click activate. Everything is fine until it says: "this key has been activated too many times" WTF ITS A FRIGGIN LEGIT COPY. god.... so what do I do? Im not shelling out...

I'm swallowing my pride asking this :D, but: You can have the optical drive and hdd on the same IDE cable, right? master/slave thing. Im asking because I'm buying a board with only one IDE, so...I dont wanna have to buy a sata hard drive. Thanks, and dont flame :D

Ok...so...i have about 68 gigs available on my HD... run the patch ( v1.12)... "you dont have enough space...etcetcetc" damn :(

how much better is 775 than 478. I have a 478 now, and I want to upgrade, but is there really a HUGE difference between the two sockets?

Which is your favorite? Personally....I'm liking Chinese the most right now. what about you guys?

anyone have good experiences with these? my generic case overheats, and these seem like they fit what I want. I just want to know if theyre worth it or not. oh, and I'm talking about the CAC-T05 model. It cheap I know, etc,etc...but I'm the kind of person who likes to work with what they...

Ok straight to the point on this post. 1.) I need someone to recommend me a res. Im looking in the $40-$50 price range. I also plan on mounting it to the top of my case, so the inlet/outlet will be facing straight down, so I dont want a really 'boxy' resevoir. I was looking at this, but...

Hey guys, its been awhile since I've been able to log on. School has been hectic. I've looked everywhere and I just wanna know where you guys can find these items at a decent price. the colored plex/acrylic/whatever (redoing a few old mods; UV is fun!) and just copper (attempting to...

How do i connect two computers (a laptop and a desktop computer) using a network cable and connect to the internet. the laptop is connected to the internet through its wireless card, but i want to connect my computer to the laptop and connect to the network (my wireless card wont connect and my...

Ever since I built this rig last week, Ive been getting alot of blue screens and crashes. Most of them are when Im playing DoD or have been on awhile. It says at the bottom its dumping memory cache or something, and that its a hardware problem. What can I do?

I searched for this, found nothing, so here goes... I installed kubuntu, but its not detecting my card, at all. During installation it said it didnt detect it, but I figured I could do it manually. That didnt work. What do I do? Im still new to linux so any help is appreciated. I have a...

Didn't knw which forum to put this in, sorry. I just built a rig last night. I havent bought my ethernet card yet, so I'm using this little usb thumbcard POS. Last night when we built it at my friend's, it worked fine, no drivers installed, nothing. Now, at home, I'm getting the USB device...

I searched for this, and found nothing. So don't say anything. I want to make my own splash screens for linux. What would I use to make these? I'm using a KDE desktop. All I find are gnome tutorials, I dont know if they are similar or what. I'm new to linux, so sorry if this is a nooby...

My dads computer is as loud as a hair dryer, and im sick of it. He has a small fan that makes alot of noise inside the case, on what im pretty sure is the northbridge, will it overheat if i take this fan off? Hes got an old athlon mobo. Thanks for the help

Ive searched the forums for this and havent found anything. this is my case. I wanted something really bland and plain so its very moddable :D. anyway. how could i move the power switch. i KNOW it can be done because Ive seen it before. Im probably going to go with a military switch...

Of course...no case mod is complete without lighting. At first, I was going to go with ccfl's, but I've read alot of posts of the inverter frying, and thats not something Id wanna go through. After that, Ive decided not to go with cold cathodes. I want something that lights just as good, but a...

Are they worth buying? I'm building a computer on a budget, and I've found one that fits what I need for cheap. I'm just wondering if this would be a good choice or not. Thanks!
