    What's going on with EVGA RMA?

    Definitely a few issues with their overall policies. I recently tried their step up program, and although they had stock I was not able to actually trade my card for 89 days after I started the step up process. I would say that customer service kept me buying from EVGA, but their service has...

    AMD Radeon R9 290X Retail Performance Variance Review @ [H]

    As someone who owns a pair of R9 290's in CF and under water I do not see this variance. My cards are happy at 1150 x 1350mhz 24/7 and run at these frequencies all the time (when gaming) as the temps are around 60C on each card. Perhaps I've been lucky, it appears to me that AMD should have...

    15% off EVGA Double Bios cards until 10/10

    Argg, just when you think it's safe... I have the promotional code and doing the math a new EVGA Classified with HydroCopper will cost me $705 instead of $829.... This is an awesome deal. Even works out cheaper than buying an air cooled Classified and then buying an EK block. I have no issue...

    GALAXY GeForce GTX 780 HOF Edition Review @ [H]

    Thanks Galaxy rep, I am liking this card more and more over the Classified, even though the Classified has a few more phases!!! My biggest issue with the HOF is not waterblock unless I consider using the EK supreme universal waterblock. If I do this am I risking the VRM overheating if I just...

    GALAXY GeForce GTX 780 HOF Edition Review @ [H]

    Great review. I have a question about the overclocking part of this card. I see on page 2 of your review that that the Galaxy Overclocking utility shows a power target goes all the way up to 126%. Can this be true? All other GTX 780's have a maximum power target of 106%. Judging from...

    HD 7990 or 2 x GTX 770 in SLI

    Thanks for the replies guys. I made my decision, the 770's in sli makes more sense. I feel more comfortable with Nvidia and I suppose a pair of 7970's in CF would have been a better match than the 7990, however I am not convinced that the CF issues have been fully resolved. The 4gb of vram will...

    HD 7990 or 2 x GTX 770 in SLI

    I was thinking that the 4gb 770 would be a definite upgrade over a 2gb 670, after all the 770 is faster than a 680. Overclocked it would be even faster. I would expect around a 20% increase in performance with a pair of 770's in sli over the 670's. I though that this would have been a good...

    HD 7990 or 2 x GTX 770 in SLI

    I have a switch 810 with watercooled 3770K at 4.6ghz and EK blocks on the GTX 670's. I realize that the upgrade will be small but I want the higher frame buffer than 2gb. I probably will be happier with the 770's. Here is my current rig:

    HD 7990 or 2 x GTX 770 in SLI

    Hey guys looking for some opinions. Have not played with AMD since the HD5*** series and have been running a pair of GTX 670's in sli for the last year. I game at 2560x1440 and am looking for a slight speed increase. I was thinking about a pair of GTX 770's but now that Frame Pacing has been...

    Cheers guys. ODD cover did not fit properly, so was recycled. Using 3/4OD 1/2ID tubing. Top rad has integrated rad and pump and was manufactured by Swiftech part of their Edge HD kits. Excellent piece of equipment, the pump is even pwm controlled. Thanks for responses.

    Finally finished latest WC project....

    What makes you say this? I play my games at 2560x1440 which reduces any potential cpu bottleneck even when running the 3770K at stock. Modern games are more likely to be gpu bound than cpu bound unless you like to play at 1024x768.

    Finally finished latest WC project....

    I used what I had available and to hand as far as the rads were concerned. Previously a single 220mm rad had been enough to cool a heavily overclocked Sandybridge cpu at 4.9Ghz and single GTX 680, so I worked out the TDP and decided that adding an extra 140mm rad and fan would be enough to cool...

    Best android today (or on the horizon)?

    I just upgraded my Droid X to the Galaxy Nexus. I am on the Verizon network. I am disappointed tbh.
