Thanks in advance for opinions/info. My friend just ordered the galaxy gtx 465 deal from newegg (144.99 free ship + mafia 2). He is upgrading from 8800gs-- current setup is a stock 1055T system with 1 HDD, 2gb ram-- all running on Corsair 450W psu. Can this power supply handle the upgrade?

I just received an SG33G50 shuttle as a hand-me-down. I plan to get the cheap gskill for $45 (2gb ddr2 5-5-5-15) on newegg along with maybe an e7200. For the videocard, is it possible this 250w psu on the shuttle will handle an 8800gt or 9600gt? Thanks in advance.

I may be building about 8-10 machines for a project. Are there any good case-psu combos for less than $80? By good psu I mean one that can handle an 8800gts 320mb. I know I am probably in dreamland, but it doesn't hurt to ask around. I found this combo and it looks to be an excellent deal...

EDIT: sorry I didnt notice this was already up :( here's the original post

Don't know if this has been posted already, so sorry if this is a repeat. (i checked) link (from XS forums) Lookin' to step up to this from an EVGA 9600gt :cool:

This is the most trouble I have ever had doing something in Windows XP. Here's the deal: I want to use alternate drivers for my 360 controller. Whenever I uninstall the current drivers for it and plug the controller back in, it installs the same ones. The only way I think I can stop this is...

I just want to see if this happens to others: The game runs beautifully @ 1920 x 1200 with 8xmsaa and 16x AF. It only comes to a screeching halt when i summon a monster (spider bitch thing, haven't tried any others). Does this happen to any of you? I found 2x MSAA a sweet spot where this...

I want to push my video card a bit further, but I need to up the voltage to get higher clocks. I cannot use ATI Tool due to it resulting in crashes when playing Call of Duty 2. I know it is possible on Rivatuner as a power user, but I really don't want to mess with that if possible. Is there...

Does anyone know how to change voltages in rivatuner? I would use ATI tool except that for some reason, Call of Duty 2 crashes when it is running. I would like to further my clocks, but do not know the ins and out of the "power user" in rivatuner. Is there something else? Thanks in advance.

Sorry if I missed a previous post on this, but I couldn't find one. I have an x1900xt, and sometimes when I play games, a series of green pixels appear on my screen. It happens sometimes, but other times I can play forever without seeing them. When it does happen, they will stay on for every...

First time Norton Ghost user here. I copied my 120gb drive to a 320gb, but now it only reads as a 120gb:( I thought I checked the right things. Is there a way I can recover the space without formatting again?

I'm selling my PC and will be making another one. Fry's has the E6550 and GA-P35C-DS3R for 278.00. Should I jump on this? Overclocking experiences, if any, please. Thanks.

LINK Very excited. :)

EDIT: Didn't see the post on general gaming till now, shucks :( ---> redirect

check it Online 4-player co-op sounds very good.

link Not that I'm a fan of the modern FF, but this is some interesting stuff!

I just got a laptop and installed age of empires 2. Does anyone know how to play the game in widescreen via workaroud or other method? I checked WSGF and no luck.

Just a quick question: I have the 775 Dual VSTA mobo with a 4x PCI-e slot. I just ordered an X1900XT 256MB from the egg. Will the 4x PCI-e slot bottleneck the card's performance? If so, is it something reasonable like 5-10% (which is my guesstimate)? Thanks in advance :)

This was a quote from the X1950XT Que? thread... So is the X1950XT > X1900XTX ??????????????? Of course the vid memory is a factor, but up to what resolutions?

Ok, everyone, please help me choose my motherboard. i have narrowed it down and come up with these 2. If you have other suggestions please list them since I am not certain these 2 are the best...:D i have 2GB corsair PC6400 4-4-4-12 and e6300 waiting for a mobo. Vid card will come later...

X1900XT This looks like a sweet deal--- 289 after the MIR. What do you all think? Will it get better right after G80, or will this be about what I should expect so I can buy this sucker right now?

ASUS X1900XT 512MB Crossfire Should I get this now, or should the price drop even more once G80's are released?

LINK This looks awesome. At this price i cannot believe what is being offered. If anyone has any more info on this card please post. This looks to be the card I'm going to get whenever it's available :) What's HTDP :confused:

i just finished buying an e6300 + ECS p4m800pro-m combo for $169.00 from Fry's. When i look through the processor box window, i see that the processor has a light scrape on its surface. Does this affect the heatsink/thermal paste cooling, or is it just normal blemishing?

Here's what it has come down to: I want to wait a while to upgrade to DX 10 video cards (probably till about the time R600 rolls out). I currently have a 6800GT. Do I get the x1900xt 512MB for $170? OR Do I get the x850xt pe for $20? I can only choose one thing.

Yes or no, and an opinion would be nice, but not necessary. thanks in advance.

My first post--YAY. Here's my situation: I moved to conroe, but i'm waiting on a newer crossfire / sli board with good overclocking potential (ASRock 775 Dual VSTA sucks @ OCing, but lets me use agp or pcie :D ). I own a 6800gt AGP and i want to get something faster, because as much as i...
