    8.40 leaked? (cat 7.8)

    If anyone wants me to determine if the Source fog issue is fixed, let me know. Just make sure you tell me the most reproducible place (i.e. game, map, location) to find it. I'll take some screen grabs. Of note, The Inquirer.net reports that ATi is stating that this bug is fixed in the August...

    They're installed and running on my machine without any hiccups. BF2142 plays fine, Civ IV plays great. I haven't tested any Steam games.

    FYI: The 2900XT is selling out everywhere .

    The experience is actually not rare at all. Just google nv4.dll display error. You will see that there is a small, but significant number of people who have had unreconciliable problems with their 8800 gtx. Yes, of course, the card should have worked. But for me it didn't. Across 2 different...

    FYI: The 2900XT is selling out everywhere .

    So what if the experience is "rare" to you? To me, it was very common. Should I have kept the card because it works for "most" people?

    FYI: The 2900XT is selling out everywhere .

    I know that people are wondering why someone would buy an "inferior" card, but the reason I bought the HD 2900 XT is because my Nvidia 8800 GTX crashed incessantly. I tried different motherboards, different CPUs (Amd and Intel), and different RAM and I still had the same Nv4disp.dll error...

    Monarch Computer Bites the Dust?

    Yeah, I thought they rocked too until they sold me a used processor (AMD X2 3800+) in August of this year, that was supposed to be new, but it was USED. It was an OEM processor that had scratches and sh*t all over the IHS. I swore to never buy from them again.

    DDR500 wont run at speed

    "A-data vitesta"? DDR 500 should be able to run at 250 mhz 1:1, no questions. I bet that RAM is the reason. If the Ram is DDR 500 PC 4000, it should run at 250 mhz.

My temps with water cooling are 37-38 Idle then 56 under load. Yet, my gfx temps are 31 idle and 38 load. I'm sure that my...
