    Advice for a friend who isn't local - Video card?

    I'd actually try a 3850 card - AGP 8x flavor. The PCI Express x16 slot only gives x4 bandwidth for that board, and ATI does offer their latest driverset 8.10 for the AGP version of the card. The card gives full DirectX 10 functionality, and enough horsepower to play any game out there at...

    got a qx6850 for free, need a decent board

    4g94_Yellow - so i can run safely with my ddr2 800 ram with the qx6850? Yes, you should be able to, unless you want bleeding edge performance running the memory 1:1 with the processor above 400Mhz FSB, AND the memory won't overclock any in your mainboard. With overclocking, there's so...

    Question...

    T500 vs W500 vs Last Gen MBP

    The mac laptops will run Windows no problem - even the least expensive $999.00 model. Native. You can have the option of using both OS's. Boot Camp (included with OS 10.5) will partition the drive as you desire without disturbing the original OSX installation at all. The Mac laptops run...
