    Valve can kiss my rear

    /Rant On Okay so I'm a Team Fortress nerd. Been playing the game in one incarnation or another for more than 15 years. Valve got together with NECA and started a line of 7" TF2 action figures. Being a fan of the series I started buying these figures as each series was released. Both Red & Blu...

    What's the best combo for eyefinity connections?

    I have two Sapphire HD6970's running in crossfire and I've got three 24" monitors which all have DisplayPorts on them. Is there an optimal connection method? Should I drive two monitors with DVI-D and one with a displayport, or two on displayport and one on DVI-D? U.M.

    New Sapphire HD6970 2GB crappy performance.

    So I just put my new system together last night and have only got Win 7 Pro loaded and a few bench marking apps. Once all the drivers were updated I've been going through and testing the different subsystems to ensure the performance is where it should be. Everything was looking good without a...

    Dell 2407WPS... Good for 3x1 Eyefinity setup?

    I currently own one 2407WPS monitor and have had it for about 3 years and I'm very happy with it. I just ordered all the components for a new build and will be running a single 2GB HD6970 to start... might add another for Crossfire depending on gaming performance. My question is what...

    HELP! Old IT guy builds new gaming PC.

    So I used to build my own systems way back in the day. Then I started making enough money where I could afford to let someone else build my machines. SO for the past 10 years or so I've been buying either high end Dell XPS systems or more recently Alienware offerings. Well I've got the itch...

    Amazon Pre-orders DELAYED!!!!!

    :mad: Just received an email from Amazon stating my Windows 7 pre-order was delayed and won't make the release date delivery originally promised. However they are refunding the full shipping costs. I guess the demand was more than Amazon could handle. U.M.

    NVIDIA Control Panel performance device rules won't load.

    Anyone have a good handle on making changes in the NVIDA control panel? I've set up some custom device rules to ramp up my GPU & CPU fans as the temps rise, but I'll be damned if I can get them to work. I've configured it to load the user profile at windows start, but the specific device rules...

    8800 Ultra's in SLI - Full screen streaming media locks up PC.

    So I'm seeing some occassional lock-ups when I'm running games (e.g. TF2, Crysis) in full screen with SLI enabled. When I try to watch a movie via Netflix WatchNow service I can not go full screen at all without it hard locking the PC forcing a hard re-boot. As long as I leave it windowed in...

    New PC performance a little low?

    I purchased a Dell XPS 720 H2C from the Dell outlet. First thing I did after it arrived was wipe the HD's and loaded a fresh copy of Vista Home Premium 64-bit SP1. I then loaded the latest drivers for the hardware, and then a registerred copy of 3DMark06. I ran all the 3DMark06 benchmarks using...
