The Noise comment I can believe, But that second half of your comment I'm going to need a bit of evidence for. The Ti's don't run that much hotter than the plain 780s, and the asus cooling solutions do nothing else if not pump heat directly into your case. :confused:

One for the hat!

No big loss. All of the stars content is low def and re-compressed so it looks like crap. Also, I have been getting better entertainment value out of the studios not associated with stars.

Not my idea ;) http://www.dangerden.com/Radiator-Questions/26798-Making-vibration-damping-fan-and-radiator-gaskets.html I have a few tricks learned from years in automotive that should make the outcome more consistent, and hopefully less messy.

I will be making my own 4x120 gaskets out of silicone using 2 plates of acrylic /w 1mm spacers. Later I will use a knife /w fan template to remove the excess. To press and distribute the silicone I will use a 5gal bucket of sand (used for blasting), but anything heavy should work.

It's so on. I'll keel you with a spoon! (in game, in game dammit! Put down the spork!)

Corsair kicks ass for their first class customer service, certified support, and products that just don't quit! Never had a Corsair anything fail yet!

To pair up in my MATX case of course. GIGANTIC COSMIC HEAT RAYS Itty-bitty living space.

PM & Bump

YGPM Bump :)

ich bin ein berliner! Or, how I learned to stop worrying and be a jelly doughnut.

I want a copy of this game, Just beCause I need another title to show off what my recently purchased GTX 480 can do!

Still interested bump ;)

Bit on the 480. Here's to sacrificing my wallet to the wind :D

Specs on the other 920? and Bump.

I bit. Hopefully my aging 4870 will survive long enough till I can upgrade. I'm kinda holding out till crysis2.

I'll tell you in 3-5 days...

Best chances are with a SB750 motherboard, perhaps biostar TA790GX ? $99.99 @ Egg. I just ordered the MSI DKA790GX for $125, should have it by Monday. Cheap & OC friendly are usually bedfellows that end in magic smoke...

Congratz to the winners! Thanks H!

Your post is a little disjointed and I'm sure I've misunderstood some points. So, currently, do the memory chips contact the heatsink via thermal pads, or are you using AS? Are you overclocking at all? CPU / GPU?

Timings are going to be different when going from 2-4g sticks. You might also need to adjust voltages. Check with the mem OEM for rated settings at 1066 and go from there.

Not bad at all... Anyone have exp with shipping from them?

Ooooo, Goodies! One for me plz!

The DFI LP JR P45-T2RS is limited to 8x PCIe2.0 electrical in both 16x slots, so if you are planning on 1920x1200 and larger screen areas you might be hampered a small amount, especially in higher end crossfire setups. I'm not sure I would recommend it for the 4870x2. It IS the only game in...

The second kit has better timings, however be aware that depending on your motherboard you may have to adjust the bios settings before they will work. You might also get better OC potential out of the second kit, if that is what you are after. The first kit wouldn't have that problem, and...

Hearing the previews detail how demanding this game was going to be I was hoping for some crossfire/sli action from [H]. I am looking at a vid card purchase in the next month and it may have helped that decision a little more... I'm at a loss deciding to toss 300 towards dual 4850's in CF...

According to my understanding of fluid dynamics, flow is going to move in the path of least resistance. If you are using 2 of those fittings, F and G. F0 meets G0, and F1 meets G1. Then the distance the water has to travel will be slightly longer across F0 to G0. But if you have the tubing...

Relative temps? Which cooler? Even with an aftermarket cooler, 700mhz OC may be the ceiling on your card without a voltmod. ( It sounds like a very respectable OC! ) The only 4850 that I've read about that pushes to the 800mhz core range is the Gigabyte 1gb version, and that may have...

Anyone else see this? Source Source2 Lan-li chassis for the Xbox360

Agreed, The Wii is not so hard to come by anymore, in many markets. Its the work of certain retailers to maintain the illusion that obtaining one is difficult, if only to drum up demand. I finally purchased one a month ago. I found upwards of 20 in stock at Target, CC, Wallmart, Toys'r'us...

Bump, for a good chuckle!

Congratulations! The winners should report back on their new sweet rigs!

I wonder how something like this would work for the 'Palit 9600 GSO 768MB' Probably not as well.

Hehehe, Braggart! (That Latest build rocks btw!)

It would make an awesome upgrade from the routerboard 500 I am using now...

Reading all the replies to this thread, I suppose its not uncommon to have never received further emails other than the 'Confirm your subscription to the BFG Tech email list.' Good luck to all!

oooooo :eek: I could really go for that MB+CPU combo... but not until after the first of June. If its still available then I will make a reasonable offer.
