    Has anyone ever experienced this? I successfully locked my Sapphire HD 6950 to 1536 Shaders a few months ago when I built my computer. Today, I just checked it with a new version of GPU-Z 5.5 and it's showing 1408 Shaders. The overlcock is holding at 880 / 1375 but the shaders changed...

    6950 Stops OC at 885/1380 - Why?

    I flashed my Sapphire 6950 with a modded 6950 bios and OC'd to 885/1380. Whenever I push it higher, I get software errors from 3DMark11 and Furmark crashes or freezes. My temps never go over 65C even at 100% load at 885/1380, so I would imagine there wouldn't be much of an increase in...

    ASUS Rampage III Gene Questions

    I have an ASUS Rampage III Gene motherboard. The manual states that I should connect 2 x 4 pin 12v+ connector on the motherboard yet they blocked out the 2nd 4 pin 12v+ connection with a cover which I'm sure I can remove, haven't tried yet. My PSU has 4x 12v+ connectors so it shouldn't be...

    AM2+ Proc backwards comaptible with AM2?

    Are AM2+ Processors like the Phenom 8450 (Tri-Core) or the 9850 (Quad-Core) backwards compatible with an AM2 socket? I know the AM2+ has new features that the AM2 doesn't have but I was thinking those features just wouldn't work if used on an AM2 slot. My mobo is eVGA 590i. I know its...

    I heard that when one buys a Vista Retail (Non-OEM and Non-Upgrade) he/she will only get the 32-bit version and instructions on how to acquire the 64-bit DVD Install CD. If I read this right from reviews of people who bought Vista, MS should be shot. Why pay the $10.00 delivery charge to...
