    Which Video card should I choose?

    I'm just about done building my first HTPC. I got some great deals so it turned out a little higher in performance than what I intended. Since I've gone this far down the road, I'm wondering if I should upgrade the video card. I have an MSI ATI Radeon HD5450 and the picture is pretty good...

    Cat 10.3 CCC will not open unless PhysX is disabled

    Okay, this is weird. I Installed Cat 10.3 today and CCC wouldn't open. The error message says "ATI Catalyst Control Center cannot be started because the currently active GPU is not supported." However, when I go into Nvidia's control panel and disable PhysX, ATI's CCC opens. I've...

    Sapphire OC HD5970 Crossfire

    My 2nd 5970 is on way and I haven't seen too many threads talking about problems with the 5970 in Crossfire. Was hoping a few of you who have this setup could share your experiences both pos and neg. I'll be running 5970 in Crossfire with a GTX285 for PhysX. Maybe I could avoid some of the...

    HD4870 or HD5770

    My son said he'd like to get an HD4870 x2. He's married with a new son, so he doesn't have the funds to by the latest and greatest.

    How long should you use a power supply

    I recently upgraded my gaming system and have a 2 1/2 year old Thermaltake 850W Toughpower, Model W0131RU left over. I'm about to build a new i7-920 based system for my wife. Can I trust this unit to last three more years? Despite its age, I'm sure it has less than 1k hours on it. Never had...

    Waiting for Extreme Video

    I decided to upgrade my 3 year old system and it's almost complete. But I'm at a video standstill. The only thing retained from my old system is two EVGA 8800 GTX SLI cards. I'm not a fanboy of either ATi or Nv, I just want the best experience I can buy and this time around, I'm not holdding...
