Is there some kind of waiting period from when this order completes to when you can enter your keycode? I just bought this from Direct2play....I verified the order, got my cdkey and steam says it's invalid....???
EDIT::: Never mind...it works. Yay me.
Thanks for great deal. 96 in stock when I...
I thought I was having a driver issue at first, so I uninstalled my cat 5.8's and tried the new ones.
Yeah....great idea, after that update I don't know what the hell valve did or how they did it, but I couldn't get my comp. to recognize a new driver for 2 hours after it. I know how to...
A few weeks ago I used to be a crack addict to this game, now suddenly playing it is like eating a moldy piece of bread.
Someone out there please tell me I'm not the only one.
To anyone thinking about buying it, you'll be lucky to get 3 months out of it.
Nice to see theres soooo many absolutely perfect law biding citizens here, who've never done anything illegal or thats immoral :rolleyes:
Theres no such thing as a closet without skeletons. It's like an asshole, everybody has one.....or is one in some cases.
I've been looking for something radically different from my current addiction to first person shooters and looking for something to occupy some of my time. I like how this game looks and all, I'm just wondering is it really worth the money when you don't have a ton to spend in the first place...
I've got the same heatsink on my x800xt and it works wonders for me too.
My temps were 44-46C @ idle and up to 78C @ load with the stock cooler.
With this zalman I'm idling @ 31-33C and load has never went beyond 51-54C so needless to say it's an awesome cooler.
The difference for me...
Yeah thats low, with specs in my sig heres what I'm getting.
Granted everythings overclocked.....but still.

I just installed a vf700-cu on my x800xt after a...slight....mishap and fuxxing the card up.
Now that it's installed heres the differences with the zalman on silent mode.
Stock cooler: idle @ 44C, load was up to 75C after alot of stress
Zalman vf700-cu: idle @ 32C, load has never past...
Well, I went to install a new zalman on my x800xt and was kinda in a hurry to get it done and wasn't paying enough attention to what I was doing........can you guess where this is leading?
I crushed the core on my less then a week old x800xt. Good thing I bought it locally, just ran to the...
Wow, just got mine plugged in......this is a damn nice monitor. I've only tried cs:s for a couple minutes so far and came here.
Damn though, no chance of me going back to that poopy ass 19' crt I have.
Sooo much more space now too. Happy day!!!
Not a single dead pixel either.
I just picked up an x800xt a couple days ago and it's amazingly fast. I'm 100% happy with my purchase. I highly doubt I'll be buying nvidia anytime soon.
Every game I've tried I can max out every option including AA/AF and I've yet to see a game drop below 30fps or even hit in the 30's...
Hey all,
Just upgraded to an X800XT and I'm looking to part with my 6800NU. I was able to unlock the 6th vertex unit with this card, unfortunately not the 4 extra pipes. Highest I've overclocked this card to is 370/850 which was rock stable.
Comes in the retail BFG package which has a...
Well, I did something. Guess with the kid and the cat attacking each other behind me and having to mediate between them I did something that fixed it.
Wish I knew what I did but I just ran 3dmark05 and it went up to 5586, much better.
Tough to pay attention to what you're doing with a...
So I just picked up a Visiontek X800XT today. I ran drivercleaner, installed cat
5.3's. Set everything accordingly and ran a couple benchmarks. Scorea are as follows:
3dmark05 - 41xx
3dmark03 - 7492
aquamark - 56,xxx
Setup is as follows:
A64 3200 @ stock
Visiontek X800XT @ stock...
Yeah this is hella [H]. I'll be picking one up tomorrow too. Love how the IRS says "you're refund is scheduled to be deposited on March 11, 2005".
Schweet!
699 CAD = 563 USD at least thats what the converter said.

:D
I wonder if my cd's/cd player are on there somewhere......
I think this ranks as the stupidest thing I've seen so far today.
Something seems really really wrong with the cops selling stolen stuff which would've probably been sold anyways.
I appreciate the time you're taking to write this comparision. I'll also be buying one of these monitors within the next couple weeks.....if uncle sam would hurry his ass up with my returns.
Thanks again!
Keep us posted.
I asked Zardon whether I should just get a x800xt or wait for this new tech. I got one simple answer..."wait".
He might have just made me hold off on spending $450 within the month. I wish he'd say what 3dmark05 scored at with it.
The first time I tried that demo it blue screened me on exit. Not a good way to sell me a game. It also barely seemed to fit as a "star wars" game. IMO at least.
I think I'm going to pick one of these up too within the month, too many of you people here talkin it up about it. Might as well give it a go too.
I'll also grab a x800xt at the same time just to sweeten it up.
Whats even better, I told my wife about it and her response was "ok". Just...
