I needed a little more zoom range since I wanted to pick up another hobby... sports/wildlife photography. Already having the 17-85 IS USM I am covered decently wide and my walkaround range is pretty acceptable. So I went longer... :) So, that brings my zoom range from this (taken at a...

Brent/ Kyle found a rendering glitch in Splinter Cell: Chaos Theory in their recent X850 XT PE review... link: I found something that looks like the same problem back in NOVEMBER of 2004 (in fact I only got 315 views and 10 replies to date) in HL2, but nobody really seemed to care/take me...

Ok, my X800 XT PE has been really REALLY pissing me off recently. I jumped in ATI Tool to see if my games were crashing out because of my graphics card, and low and behold I am getting artifacts out the wazoo all of the sudden. I dropped the core clock down about 100MHz and the artifacts...

My overclocks have been a little questionable with this new WC setup I've got, and I have noticed my vcore is a bit unstable under load despite my efforts to cool the MOSFETs on my Neo2, and, in feeling my PSU, I noticed it's running awfully warm... so, since I have always felt this truepower...

You overclock/run F@H all night just to keep your room warm? :D In FL the temps just hit high 50s and I am freezing, but I always try to see how long I can stand to go w/o turning the heater on. I run prime95 and or F@H to keep my room liveable at night, and push my OCs progressively harder...

I woke up at 4:30 this morning after getting all my components back together with my new Neo2 Platinum and everything was not allright. I could smell that ominous "there goes the magic smoke" smell, but I wasn't stress testing my PC or doing any overclocking or anything. In a frenzy I pulled...

Okay, well my system went kaput tonight and I am trying to figure out why. I need to put my stock cooler on my X800 XT PE to take it to a friends house to see if it is hosed (I was using w/c and saved everything but this little damn bar) because I now get no video ouput. I tried swapping a...

I just noticed this tonight (yes I used cheats to get back here to take this screenshot after I beat the chapter, so sue me, I am impatient) The rest are links to save bandwidth/space: http://images.e-techcorp.net/d3_c17_120008.jpg http://images.e-techcorp.net/d3_c17_120009.jpg...

My current POS CRT (a Hansol 710D) is dying very quickly. The screen cannot hold a uniform shape and it is pulsing in and out at the edges sporadically. Also, at 1024x768 @ 70Hz, the geometry at the edges is all off. It's also been excessively dark (IE I cannot see the color seperation between...

Oh my God, I am so fuming mad right now. I FedEx overnighted a X800 XT PE to my door, and I get home today, open the box for my package... open my gigabyte box, and there IS NO FUCKING CARD. There is the user's manual and CD-ROMS and I dont have a fucking card at all. I am really suspicious some...

<rant> After owning the AV8 for a while now, and building a few similar Socket 939 systems, I am wondering how the [H]ard guys are actually supporting this board. I have not found one single person that has had a trouble free installation, mark my words not one. Hard mentions nowhere the...

http://www.gameve.com/gve/store/productdetails.aspx?sku=VC-VT-009&view=0 Haven't been keeping up with video cards, hoping the price battles would decrease and supply would increase... I can tell neither has really happened. Is this a real, legit, in stock item? Thanks, -----Nate

http://www.tcwo.com/ Look. For any of you local Tampons, you know they have a pretty HUGE warehouse. I'm trying to figure out home someone cleaned them out that bad. The place had tons upon tons of equipment. Any thoughts? PS: Didn't know what forum to put this is. Move as appt.

Anyone running this setup? I'm trying to get my Athlon 64 up and running and installing the CPU-200 cooler with the brackets sucked... alot. I don't think it really should have worked, but I made clearance and forced it to work. My BIOS says the athlon is at a scalding 55 degrees ... dead...

Just wondering what you guys have... I have just shy of 18,000 MP3s consuming roughly 100 gigs. Just wondering where I stand.

I'm trying to calculate the Days elapsed from Day W Year X to Day Y Year Z, including all leap year rules, etc. Can someone verify if this is right? AFAIK it is, but I haven't worked with gregorian calander stuff if a while... class date_stuff { function is_leap_year($inYear) {...

First and foremost: I humbly submit I am nowhere near a photo guru, I just enjoy taking pictures. Most anyone in this forum knows twice as much as I do about cameras, at a bare minum, so forgive my ignorance in Photography issues. The mother of the house is using and old Sony DSC-P70 3.3 MP...

Basically, what I want is an LCD for use on desktop apps... email, web browsing, graphics, the like... only 2D essentially. The LCD needs to be my workhorse for non gaming static images: I am hooking my computer up to my sony XBR plasma for the fun stuff :) I don't think a 12ms LCD is for...

I am wondering, if you could please... how hot the backside of your water cooled GPU is? A simple "it feels about this hot" will suffice. Just put a Koolance L06 GPU block on my Ti 4200, and the back of the PCB gets extremly hot when gaming... like, too hot to touch for long hot. I'm figuring...

Just wondering what nForce chipsets (or mfgrs) are supporting PCI/AGP frequency locks right now? I'm pissed, because my A7N8X-Delux does a piss poor job OCing on water, with a gig or corsair LL matched sticks, no PCI devices, and a 550w power supply! Basically everything in my system is stout...

<edit>Sorry, newb foolish action: posted before I searched. Found the answer: all AGP X800 XTs are PEs, so that clears things up.</edit> I'm so damn confused by all of the various chipsets and OEM boards and benchmarks that my head is spinning. There are reviews saying there is a X800 XT that...
