http://www.alienware.com/intro_pages/nvidia_quadsli.aspx?sssdmh=dm11.82739 I guess my current solution of ( 1 BFG 7800 GS OC) is considered stone-age by these standards. I can't compete with 4 7900 GTX's. I guess if you don't have $2,000.00 for quad SLI these days your out of Luck if you...

Greetings, This note is for all the new BFG 7800 GS OC owners. I want to ask you two questions. 1. I bought this card thinking it would be a considerable upgrade over my 9700 pro and because I did not want to spend the money on a full blown upgrade. However when I popped in Half Life 2...

Greetings, I am seriously considering upgrading to AMD but have a serious problem....I do not know anything about AMD processors as I have always owned Pentium. I am a perfectionist so my current set-up cannot play Half Life 2 on max settings without having some hiccups (Audio skips and some...

Greetings, I moved into a house and the couple left a decent Umax scanner laying around. I went to Umax online and found the drivers but they want $50 for a driver disk. No downloads available. That's crap, I probably can't even get $50 for the scanner on Ebay. So I was wondering if anyone...

If you check out this thread "http://overclock.net/graphics-cards-general/9916-ati-nvidia-overclocking-guide-all-you.html" it says they are the best drivers for Nvidia cards. Does anyone have any experience with them and have you been happy? Notice any differences? PS. I would be using them...

Hi. There must be some people out there that still have an ATI 9700 or 9800 pro in their machines and want better graphics processing but can't afford to upgrade from AGP to PCI-E just yet. Just wanted to share my 3D mark 03 scores from my upgrade to a BFG 7800 GS OC (Overclocked to 480 with...

Greetings, I just purchased a BFG 7800 GS to replace my 9700 pro. I downloaded Coobits last night and did an auto-detect on the clocks. It boosted my core clock up from 400 - 480. I ran 3-d marks on it last night and it stayed pretty cool (40c) and stable. Anyway, I am wondering if this...

Quick question. Just got an Enermax 430 watt PSU. This is different from my stock case Award PSU as it has an additional fan on the side. Is th fan on the side supposed to be facing the inside of the CPU case where all the components are or is it supposed to be facing the top of the CPU case.

My father has an AMD X2 FX60 2.6MHz water cooled to 3.0MHz http://www.driverheaven.net/reviews/fx60/index.htm He says it blows anything Pentium has to offer away. He says The newer batch of AMD's is better than the current offering of any Pentium, and that the only decent product Pentium...

Gets even more confusing now. My dad says my 3.0 GHZ on the 875 chipset is anemic by todays standards. So he offers me up 3.4GHZ 478 Northwood that he has laying around collecting dust for $300.00., So I go onto Ebay and see a 3.4 775 for $200 and yell at him for trying to rip off his son...

Greetings, I have an Intel 875 chipset P4 3.0 HT. Is this really old? I cannot find a chart with processors and their corresponding chipsets. If I went out and bought a P4 3.0 processor today would it still be an 875 chipset? If so can Is there a PCI-Express Mobo that is compatible with the...

Greetings, First off here is is my system. P4 3.0 HT 1GB DDR Corsair Radeon 9700 Pro. Abit IC7-G mobo Reading a few of the posts in here I have come across the statement "a better alternative for AGP owners looking for a graphics upgrade would be to move to PCI-Express" "You only need...

Greetings, I am very worried that I am making a unwise decision in my quest for a new AGP card. I currently have an ATI 9700 pro and have been eying two cards. X850XT or the BFG 7800 GS OC. Right now I can get the 7800 GS OC for $40.00 cheaper than the X850XT but am worried when I look at...

Should I just get the cheapest one I can find on ebay or is one considerably better than the other?

Are these garbage? they seem the cheapest on E-Bay. I am putting a new X850Xt card in my mobo and need a new PSU but am short on change. Any other PSU suggestions for short on change punks like me? Thanks. Dan.

Greetings, I am new to this forum but was recommended here by my father. Here is my situation. I have had a Radeon 9700 pro for quite some time now and the thing took a dump on me while playing Half Life 2 last week. So I need a new card. I am looking for a card in the $300.00 range and...
