    Installing with OC

    Do you guys install your OS with or without overclocking your CPU? Heard someone say that it's best to OC after. I'm of course referring to when you know what your stable OC is.

    Arctic Cooling S1 Rev. 1 on 4870

    After a couple of days playing a few games I must admit that the difference between my old 8800GT and this 4870 isn't that great. I do see a difference but it's minimal IMO

    Arctic Cooling S1 Rev. 1 on 4870

    Just received my 4870 and was wondering if the old S1 I used on my 8800GT would fit the 4870. The holes do line up but the AC site says that only the Rev. 2 will fit.

    Intel Matrix Storage Manager and AHCI

    Just a quick question regarding Intel's Matrix software... I'm running 3 single SATAII drives @ AHCI on an ICH9R controller. Intel states that I should install their Matrix software when using AHCI but the actual driver inside is older than the one you get in their chipset driver pack...

    8800GT low score

    Sorry I meant to say 1500 points His was 11447 and mine was about 10000 I however just tried OC'ing my E6600 to 9x333 and got a score of 11245. The last 200 points are probably due to his CAS4 memory and P35 chipset? I had no idea that SM 2.0 and 3.0 was also related to the CPU. I'm...

    8800GT low score

    Here's my m8's score http://service.futuremark.com/compare?3dm06=3984741 His CPU score is just 600 points higher than mine but look at his SM 2.0 and 3.0 compared to mine. Something fishy is going on.

    W2207 which one to keep?

    I kept the one on the left... I couldn't stand the brownish tint on gray colors. Looks much different IRL than on the fotos. The warm one is from march and GTMV 1.4 The other june and GTMV 1.6 I also noticed that the warm one had a yellow tint in every corner.

    W2207 which one to keep?

    The brightness does mess it up a little as the H ss is much more brown IRL. What bothers my is that, as you say yourself, the colors on the warm one looks more vibrant except when you look at gray colors. My friend has got a w2207 so I think I'm gonna go watch his. Thanks

    W2207 which one to keep?

    I have two of these beauties and one of them has to go back but I can't decide! I've included a few screens. They are quite different when it comes to colors as one is warmer than the other. I kind of like the colors that one produces but sometimes grey has a brownish tint to it as you can...

    Timings vs. bandwidth non OC

    If one were to buy either an X2 4600+ or E6400 and had the choice between the following identical priced modules and would NOT be OC'ing which would you choose and why? 2x1GB PC4200 CL4 or 2x1GB PC5300 CL5 timings or bandwidth? and does it differ on the two platforms?

    Calling all A8R32-MVP owners!

    I'm about to install the above motherboard but am confused about the ATA settings. BIOS allows me to select either PATA mode or AHCI for SATA drives. Which do I choose? I'm running four Seagate 7200.8 NCQ SATA drives. Thanks

    Alternative cooling solution on the X1900XTX

    Yeah....that's one of my concerns too but at least it doesn't concentrate the heat down towards the motherboard like the AC cooler.

    Alternative cooling solution on the X1900XTX

    They'll probably come of with some alcohol of some sort. I just don't like the idea of all that hot air pouring down on my already "half-way-to-hell" hot A8N32-SLI

    Alternative cooling solution on the X1900XTX

    I'm beginning to get annoyed about the stock cooler on my XTX so I'm looking around for a better solution. So far the only two I've found are the Accelero X2 and VF900-Cu The AC solutions seems pretty flawed with the direct heat output towards the motherboard. I also read about some guy...
