Hey guys,
Im having a bit of trouble here, I recently moved from a 7800gtx to an 8800gts. For whatever reason whenever I set AA or AF settings in the nvidia control panel they never stick and wow looks all jaggy. Is there something Im doing wrong or forgetting?
Hey all,
First I applogize if this is wrong forum but I didnt really know where to put it.

I used to ask a similar question, I bought an X-Fi on my computer, and it has a mic/line-in together so i have to swap mic and audio when depending on whether im gaming or recording. Also Xfi isnt yet supported in linux sooo, I tossed a 5$ sb live 5.1 problem solve. :-p
I had an old desktop replacement, but it wasnt portable in the sense you would want to carry it around.
Bump, I am also looking for a macbook, hope you find one.
Sorry i just thought i would point out this is like a nerdy letter to penthouse.

I think many of you are dismissing this idea all together with out exploring the possibilities of it, it doesnt have to be BOOM HEADSHOT, PWNED!! blah blah..... it could be any type of game.

Almost all fans have a center hub, press on that w/ your finger or something else to avoid injury. As too whether or not its good for the fan I couldnt tell you.
I also would suggest checking out the pci slots, those little blanks are usually only fastened at the top and make a god awful...

Screw it, its all like political parties.
Pick the one you wanna believe and go with that. I say live and let live, and if anyone doesnt believe that, take em out back and shoot the motherfucker. (borrowed from george carlin)
That or you run into problems like I did quite frequently for college projects, you go to write the program and find that 80% of your code is using some library that was "deprecated" in the last update lol.
on a side note. Mike, I was under the impression they were planning a garbage...
Thanks for all the replies, I threw an old SB 5.1 card in I use for linux now, and windows uses the XFi. Although I did install the driver for the 5.1 so that later I can hookd my POD into it rather then having to unplug my mic on my XFi everytime I wanna record something.
Hello, I have a DFI SLI-DR, current for linux I use an audigy 2zs. I would like to dual boot with windows to play games so I can use my XFi card once again. would it freak windows out if I were to use one of the following cases.
1. XFi and Audigy2 but in windows only install xfi driver

Hi, this may be a somewhat dumb question but is there anyway to change the keyboard keymap to another language like russian? Or at the very least like an on screen keyboard with russian characters? I realise that the russian alphabet has 33 chars and english is only 26. I am taking a language...
you could also just do
sudo passwd root
which "sorta" defeats the purpose of sudo but if you have a buncha shit you gotta do as root its nice not to have to type sudo every cmd.
Forget the setup, I would be worrying about how much work the upkeep would be to keep it running top notch.
as for under a C-note? i dunno ive usually seen about 150-175 range.
Im thinkin maybe your old modem had routing features and your new might not. You may have to get a router, or if you have a computer with two or more net cards hook it up that way.
IIRC "emerge --usepkg KDE" uses binary compiled packages so you dont have to.
Altho it is great to have a fast computer. Im running an Opteron 170 @ 2.4.
Starting from livecd. I did a base install and compiled Xorg and e17 in just a touch under 50min.
I have a Dell 2005 w/ a 7800GTX. and I would say even for casual gamers, unless its like an rpg or something gaming with an X300 would be pretty unbearable IMHO.
