i have two 216sp 260s in sli right now and performance is acceptable however i cannot get the AA i want in games like BFBC2 or lotro online during pvp. the limiting factor seems to be Vram. so would i notice a worth while performace boost to warrent the 280 bucks? or should i just continue to...

my current rig is in my sig , however i have recently purchased a used 260 and a used 780i board on the cheap and have a 8800gt laying around...... think i have enough juice to not only SLI the 260s but also overclock my e8400 and run a 8800gt for a dedicated physx card? i know i have...

my rig is in my sig below, i dont want to spend more than say $255 to upgrade it just to tide me over till sandybridge or cheaper i7 cpus, so would buying a refurbed XFX 780i for 60 bucks on ebay and a used 260 for SLI be a cost effective upgrade? i would plan to use the 260's in sli for...

mind you i would like to have these settings in PVE and PVP raids where anywhere from 12-80+ characters may gave to be rendered i was thinking 4870/48901gb as i have heard on the lotro forums that a 260 is not quite enough for what i want

how long till we start to see manufactures like XFX and gigabite slap a diffent cooler on these cards? i think i will be waiting for this to buy :)

tried this little program that loads textures and meshes onto a performance usb flash drive thus speeding up lotro access to these files and slightly speeding up the game. kinda like readyboost but designed for lotro specifically and i must say that i use fraps to compare and i saw a 10-12 fps...

with fan set at 100% i get temps around 75-78c underload this i would like to see lower and maybe gain a few more mhz out of my OC are there any good aftermarket coolers that significantly outpreform the stock on this card? i looked at duorb and the zalman vf1000 but read a few conflicting...

i fried my Mb and im replacing with the exact same MB will i still have to reformat? or will it be all good :)

i just fried my IC7 and my complaints with it was the voltage was not stable dropping .5vcore under load or more( heard about some prob with Asus). The AI7 i had before this could not do 1:1 over 240 so is there a 875p board on earth that can supply an even and stable 1.7vcore AND do 1:1 up to...

im gonna grab a NV silencer for my card and maybe flash the bios so i can hit 415-425. was wondering if grabbing the vantec spectrum ( pci card fan) and aiming it at the NV silenver would make a difference at all since the air will be blocked from going over heatsink by the NV silencers plasitc...

got one of the latest stepping prescotts for socket 478 for sale on Ebay starting the Bid @ 125.00 come check it out :) also selling one stick of 512mb BH-5 that does 2-2-2-5 @ 250fsb +

just got her today tomorow i get my new IC7 gonna pair it with OCZ pc4000 rev 2 think i have any shot of hitting 3.9-4.0 with a koolance? i have heard some good stuff about this latest stepping for the pressy

i wont even install the damn thing if it isnt a D0 but do you guys think my koolance can handle a 3.2E @ 3.85 and a 5900XT @ 500/975 ??

ive heard this damn board is picky.... will this memory work ok @ 1-1 fsb 248?

i have decent water cooling, right now im running a 3.0C @ 1.71vcore and its 32c idle and 43C load i think i can keep the pressy under 50C anyway so with decen cooling how far will your average 3.2E chip go... 3.8? 3.9? 4.0? any chance in hell to hit 250 fsb?

at 248fsb it passes at 249+ it freezes or reboots system alltogether but will run memetest or prime overnight....anyone have any ideas what problem is?
