    wow! x850xt temps before and after ati silencer

    I would have to guess that it is in Degrees. 33C (92F) is way to cool on stock, considering my X850XT PE get to 82C under full load (aka, Splinter Cell 3). Good to see some results with the Silencer, Ive gotta get me one of those. Do the AS4 fit?

    [H]ardOCP 7800 GTX Preview!!!!

    Look's like a very nice card, particually the fact that it uses less power and has a single slot cooler. But the preformance gain over the flagship "last gen" cards (6800 ultra, X850xt pe) does not leave me needing to trade in for a 7800GTX. Good to see that Nvidia has solve the supply issue we...

    512 to 1Gb, is it worth it?

    I tryed my system (usually 1gb) at 512mb just to see the difference and it is very noticable. Games run soooooo much smother and faster with 1gb.

    A8N-SLI Owners

    Yes I have pluged in the ASUS "easy plug" into the psu, no change. I can flash to a later bios because I cant see enough of the screen to navigate the current bios. I contacted the retailer, they advised me to try it in another system to isolate either the vid card or mobo as the problem, I am...

    A8N-SLI Owners

    It is garbeled on the startup screen, so much so that I cant install windows, the vid card is not using any drivers because they cant be loaded. What is the deal with RMA-ing parts? I've never needed to do it before. The only 4 pin connector on the card is yellow and I have no plug to fit it.

    A8N-SLI Owners

    Before I posted this I read all previous posts. So let me get this strait, no A8N-Sli board will recognize HD's with NCQ unless you are using bios 1002, in witch case you can not overclock past 210mhz FSB (including on "final" 1003 bios) correct? What problems are there with bios 1002 apart...

    Ati is planning to have the own version on "sli" on an up and coming via chipset due later this year (probably wont support sli using the current cards though).

    Just orded new rig

    That is true. The reason I got the sli deluxe modle is because it was the only one available at the time. It is the same as the non sli deluxe just with a second pci-e 16x slot.

    X850 XT Platinum Edition Ships to Market

    In australia vidio cards are very expensive. You cant get an Asus x800xt for less than $1100. So $1000 for a x850xt pe (brand new peice of hardware) is quite a good price. I only upgrade me computer about once every 2 years, and even then its usually only a new cup and mobo. So when I do buy...

    What's the difference between these 2 sticks?

    Or someone else will argue that heatspreaders act as a blanket over the memory chips therefore raising the temps :rolleyes: . But who cares, memory modules dont realy need heat "spreaders", decent case ventilation does enough.
