She needs to start gaming asap! Perfect card for her rig. :)

This game is horrible. Let's Talk about Battlefield 3 and CS:GA

Money is dumb.

Ok, so first off.... Gaming with this is amazing. I will say now in MW2 if u have a slow connection the loss of packets is more obvious even though there is no net_graph. But that is a different issue with that shitty console port anyway. In the menu features on the monitor it has different...

Me too... :P

I think the people that say it doesn't make a difference, besides just being wrong, haven't actually played an fps game against other people on lan or online and seen it in action. There is a big difference. I have played in several gaming leagues and the standard has always been CRT with at...

Well all I know is actually getting 120 fps is a must for my gaming rig. :cool:

I haven't got the Acer yet, it is in route. I should have it by Monday and I will post whether it works or not. Gonna try and do some more searching for an answer for now. Also, AMD sent this response "AMD Engineering and the Catalyst Crew Team are working on this issue. There is no way to...

I need some hard facts or fixes for this! I have seen random threads everywhere. Some say it is fixed with 10.1 catalyst, others not. I have seen some say you need to oc the card so it's idle speed in 2d can handle the refresh rate and won't BSOD. I had no luck getting my view sonic to work(...

Ordered as well!!! Hope the 10.1 catalyst fixed the 2d blue screen issue I had with the viewsonic!!!!:/

That makes sense. Im gonna stick with my actual 120 fps in Source games :P I get almost 300 in net graph but I like to keep fps_max set to whatever my monitor is doing.

Would u even get 120 fps on a ps3 rig? Aren't console games fps capped in the coding or something? I could be wrong but I was always told to set my fps to match my refresh rate. I don't really know the specs on the ps3. I only really game on steam. :P

Well i am glad your's works. I really want one of these......

I didn't get this model I had the viewsonic Fuhzion. But yeah I can't even get passed the welcome screen when my ati drivers are loaded. I tried ocing my card, ati hot fix and no luck. So yes the 2d issue. I can't even get to a load a game before my comp blue screens with that monitor. It is...

Can someone tell me if this will work with the ati 5870? I had the view sonic last week and took it back because I couldn't get it to work with the ATI drivers even if I oced my card. Or should i just sell my 5870 to my friend so he can crossfire x3 and i will get a Fermi :P.... Seriously does...

This looks very tempting! I do like the Acer one as well. Has anyone found a fix for use with the ATI 5870? or do I have to buy a Nvida card to use this. I had the viewsonic fuhzion a day ago and took it back after having issues and seeing the Acer 23.6 inch 1920x1080 was coming out. I could...

Yeah i need that. I really want 27" -30" @2560 x1600 with a really good response time. higher refresh rate would be cool to0. I've seen 2 monitors that are suppose to refresh @ 120 hz but they are only 22". I don't plan on eyefinity but if i did I would want at least 24" :confused:monitors.

I guess i got lucky, I was in meetings all day a few weeks ago and I had a notebook in front of me. I was logged into newegg and just kept refreshing the list of 5800s, then an asus 5870 showed in the list that wasn't there before, In the list it said not in stock but when i went to the product...

So i installed the thermalright 120 rev c. with a scythe fan... 950 @ 3.64 and its hitting between 58 and 65C under realtemps with prime95 loaded.(no errors) I think i am happy with this. :) time to install Snow leopard on my extra drive and see if i can get that to boot :P edit- it did hit 66C...

I'm using the zalman 9900 cnp cooler with the shin estu paste. My voltage is at auto , the only thing I've changed in the bios is the CPU ratio and freq. I turned of speed step but it seems like the machine under clocks when idle? Idk I was thinking of trying the thermalright 120 ex rev heatsink....

BTW? should i keep speedstep enabled or does it hinder performance? And if I disable it will my load temps rise? Really just need some insight on my temps. They seem A LOT lower in the reviews on this site, but you guys use a different way to measure them. Happy turkey day btw... :)

So I did a little more research, but thanks for clearing it up that it is really simple! I must have been trying too hard. So I set the cpu to 150 and the ram to 15xx w/ 7-7-7-20 and it's been running like a champ! I guess my ram doesnt wanna go over the 16xx mark :/? But thats ok I am pretty...

OK so ran prime95 and in real temp i was getting over 65 C under load at 3.2 GHz. I turned off the comp and uninstalled the heat sink and cleaned off the arctic silver 5. I applied that Shin-Etsu 7783D instead since i had some laying around :P I didn't think it would matter that much but I...

OK well thanks, it definitely doesnt seem to have any issues running at stock, I will try and benchmark the stock settings. What is a good program that will show temps? edit- I am gonna maybe re-flash the bios and i am also wondering if since i have a soundcard in the pci e 16 slot... maybe...

So i am new to the forums but I have been reading articles on hard for a quite a while. My last machine was an amd x2 939 2.2 @ 2.6 on an asus board. That was about 4 years ago. I just put together a new machine and I will take any advice I can get for ocing. I am not trying to go crazy, i...
