    Very excited about Surface Pro 2

    How warm do your screens get? Mine gets noticeably warm even with only Word open... just wondering if that's common.

    Power limit = increased performance tahiti LE

    I was looking at other people's 3dmark11 scores for the Sapphire 7870 XT and noticed that mine was a bit low, so I flashed it with the Powercolor 032 bios from this thread. It was originally on 030. Stock 030: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/6201784 032: http://www.3dmark.com/3dm11/6202156...

    Power limit = increased performance tahiti LE

    How loud does your card get? I've never had a sapphire card before so I have no reference. Mine went up to 50% fan use while playing tomb raider and I thought it was quite loud, but apparently these are relatively quiet fans?

    Sapphire 7870 XT won't run at PCIe 3.0?

    Yeaaaaah... I see that it has really no effect performance-wise, I'm just pretty curious about why it might be happening. Dark12, that's definitely the cause. I'm running an i3-3225 :( I need to learn how to read. Thanks everyone!

    Sapphire 7870 XT won't run at PCIe 3.0?

    Just got this card and noticed that it seems to only run up to PCIe 2.0 x16, according to GPU-Z. It says that the card is capable of PCIe 3.0. When I run the render test in GPU-Z, the most it will go up to is PCIe 2.0 x16. CCC is reporting that my graphics bus capability is only PCI Express...

    Power limit = increased performance tahiti LE

    I have a Sapphire 7870 XT coming in today. Should I update the bios for it with the one provided in this thread, or is it just for Powercolor cards?

    Putting CFW on your PSP Slim - Having trouble figuring it out? Look inside for info

    Sorry if I missed this, but will soft-modded fat pandora batteries work in the psp slim? I'm thinking of just buying a used battery, softmodding it with my fat psp and then when I get the slim use the fat pandora on it.

    I haven't replaced the video card yet, but.. I just looked at hwmonitor and it's saying that AUXTIN is at 127° c.. what's auxtin? Also if hwmonitor is right then my cpu is idling at around 85° edit: wait, in speedfan core0 and core1 show 85 but it also shows the cpu reading 53...

    Random green screen and then reboot?

    Hey guys, This is happening with my desktop.. The screen turns green and after a few seconds it restarts itself. It seems to be happening at random times. I already ran memtest, prime95, and orthos for seven hours each and it was stable through each. It was also fine when I played Crysis for...

    Comments on my TJ08 build?

    I assumed that the HIS TurboX would be relatively close to the 3870 in performance, with its overclock. The ICEQ cooler and the included black box are the biggest deciding factors for me.. I'll only use it when I'm home for breaks, and I'll only be gaming on 1280x1024 Or am I wrong and should...

    Are there any good deals on good horizontally-blowing cpu coolers that would fit well? Or should I just stick with the freezer 7 pro? Thanks for all the help
