I doubt it since it's part of the official specs.

You can calculate the maximum refresh rate of a monitor at a given resolution by using its horizontal refresh rate. In your case, the VW266H has a horizontal refresh rate of 83KHz. So the formula is [horizontal rate in Hz] / [vertical pixel resolution] * 0.95 = maximum vertical refresh rate...

It says on the listing you get the 3yrs warranty with advanced exchange service. Also you can use it with Bing 8% cashback for eBay, though you might want to wait and see if the cashback increases any for Black Friday or Cyber Monday.

You can still get it on Dell's eBay store for $499.

My Opteron 170 just doesn't cut it anymore.

Not a gameplay mod, but there are updated renderers available.

Thanks, just the anecdote I was looking for.

Currently I'm running: AMD Opteron 170 3GB DDR PC3200 4x7200rpm HD XFX Geforce GTX 260 (core-216) Black Edition Creative Audigy 2 ZS On a Seasonic S12 500W with these specs: +3.3V = 30A +5V = 30A +12V1 = 17A +12V2 = 16A According to a watt meter I'm using, my PC uses about 140W...

I don't have a GTX 280, but I do have the GTX 260 core-216 version and on the box they also say it requires a 12V with 40A. But I am using a somewhat old Seasonic S12 500 which has two 12V rails with 17A and 16A and have absolutely no problems running this. Though I'm still on an old Opteron...

$30 MIR only good for 11/17. The case is classified as a mid-tower but is pretty much a full tower in size. Comes with 6 fans (4x120mm and 2x140mm). http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811146047&Tpk=NZXT%20Tempest

Does it happen only when it's raining? I'm using a 7800GT and I get all sorts of polygons flickering but only when it's raining. Mine looks most like the last screenshot you posted. I'm running with full dynamic lighting and full details except no shadows or AA.

Did you set memory command rate to 2T? Most motherboards won't run at 1T with four dimms filled.

I'm using an Opteron 175 and Abit AN8 Ultra with 2x512MB and 2x1024MB Corsair XMS. It does run in dual channel and also must run at 2T command rate. I don't know what the case is for the Core Duo but I'd imagine it'd be the same.

I'm using this DVI-D cable. I'm using a PNY Geforce 7800GT that has only DVI ports. I had the cable before I even had the monitor so I've never tried it with any other cable. In fact, I don't recall it even came with any DVI cables. The preboot screens work fine and I can see the startup...

I own a VP2030B and have been using it on DVI for almost a year now without any problems. I ordered it from Dell in mid-Dec '05 and it did take over a month to ship (got it at end of Jan '06).

Sometimes "dual-core optimized" is just a label.

1280x1024 is actually some kind of bastard resolution. Standard resolution is 4:3 ratio, and widescreen is 16:9. Yet this is 5:4. Sometimes I come across games that support only 1280x960 (the proper 4:3 resolution). But I guess putting up with a couple of small black bars (just 64 pixels) on...

I have one. Next to a CRT, any LCD will have motion blur but I've gotten accustomed to it over time. It's not the case that I don't notice it anymore but more so that I simply don't get bothered by it much anymore. Anyway, my experience with the VP2030B shows that it has particular trouble in...

There is a program that sets the affinity in the executable itself. However, I would be sure to backup the original .exe incase you need to apply a patch or something.

Actually, the manual is outdated and has a lot of misinformation. However, they did provide an updated PDF manual on the forums. Also make sure you've updated to v1.3 since it fixes some critical bugs (and introduces others unfortunately...). You'll also find a lot of tutorials and guides...

How refresh rate affects your framerate depends whether you use vsync and whether the game uses triple buffering or not. Without it, vsync will cap your framerate at 1/n. So if you refresh is 85hz, then you can get, at most, a framerate of 85fps. If your system isn't able to render that fast...

As far as I know, the only 5:4 aspect ratio ones are those running at 1280x1024. And that would be all 17" and 19" LCDs, regardless of brand.

Go to start, run, then type devmgmt.msc -Expand Monitors -Double-click Plug And Play Monitor or whatever it says -Goto Drivers tab -Click Update drivers and say no to windows update -Select Install from specific location and point it to where you downloaded the .ini file. This is...

You could try DXTweaker Load present changer module and set the backbuffer count to 2.

Anyone know if the AN8 Ultra (nForce 4) will run 2x512MB and 2x1024MB in dual channel mode and at 400mhz? If not, is there any socket 939 board that will? This is with an Opteron 175. The RAM is Corsair XMS TWINX1024-3200C2PT and TWINX2048-3200C2PT.

Try typing fps_max 60 in the console. If the game runs at a higher framerate than your display can output, it can give you the perception of input lag.

Actually, the 9700 mobility does not really compare to the desktop 9700. The mobility 9700 has 4 pipelines and 128-bit memory. Its basically just a higher-clocked mobility 9600.

Well, I would think it will be easier for them to phase out AGP than it is regular PCI because the only thing that uses AGP are video cards whereas PCI is for a variety of components so you can't quite make the same comparison.

PCI is 133 MegaBYTES per second, or over 1000Mbps, while USB2.0 is 480MegaBITS per second, or about 60MBps (Capital B denotes bytes and b denotes bits).

Yeah you need to install/update your chipset drivers for your nForce3. http://www.nvidia.com/content/drivers/drivers.asp
