Thank you.

Can you put two cards in crossfire if they are not exactly the same? I bought my 5770 card on Newegg, and was going to buy another identical one, but they no longer carry it. If I bought another 5770, either from the same, or different manufacturer, that had the same specs, or similiar...

Thanks for the quick reply. I haven't got that much installed on it yet, so starting over wouldn't be that big a deal.

Stripped array. 2 x 60G SSD's for OS and most programs that I use. Data is on a NAS. AMD 890FX MSI MB. Can I just add an identical drive to this array and have it work so that it sees the increased capacity or do I have to reinstall the OS and programs?

I wonder if this could recognize brushstrokes in the air or on a non-touchscreen monitor. It might make for not needing a Wacom tablet.

I'm running 2 old ATI 1900's with an MSI AMD motherboard. Win XP 64bit. I want to be able to rotate the displays to be vertical. I see this option in Catalyst under 32 bit, but I don't see it under 64 bit. Would I be able to rotate to vertical if I upgrade cards or should I upgrade to...

Why bother with it when they will probably pixelate it all anyway? There's no reason to watch hi-def if it is censored. The format won't matter.

Thanks, I appreciate that.

What does (WOF) and HE mean? I've seen Opteron 2XX's listed on Newegg and Ebay with this suffix. I had a 246 break while removing a heatsink. TIA.

I had it in my cart at $229 and was about to pay for it and I noticed the price shot up before I bought it. I bought the processor elsewhere and everything else from Newegg. Annoying. I paid more for it and it will arrive 4 days later than everything else.

I am building a new machine. The old one that died was a Dual boot Windows 32 bit and x64. I was much happier with x64 than 32. I am now stuck using my laptop with Vista along with all the pre-installed crap that I am still in the middle of disabling. When I have the new machine built I...

I got a Corsair 620 less than a month ago. I put it into my K8WE rig. It worked fine for several days then one day when turning it on, it would power up, spin fans and then shut down after one second. I tried putting in my old Silverstone Zeus 650 that the Corsair replaced and the same...

I downloaded version 3g of the Belkin drivers and have my n52 working on Vista. There were some errors on install, but it does work.

Can the newer 1950 cards do this? I haven't bought a video card since my 800XL. I was never able to get video capture to work properly on it. I was thinking about a 1900 All in Wonder, but I'm seeing that they're discontinued. I have Dish so I'm not interested in capturing directly OTA...

I have the same question. I have the software installed, but I cannot get it to select S-Video In. By default, it goes to All in Wonder, which I do not have. Is it possible to change this in the registry?

I am running the latest bios. I made the changes to set memory hole to software mapping. The default is 1.5 gig on the size. What should I lower it to? As of yet Win 32 reports 2 gig instead of 2.5 and I blue screen when I try to boot into Win 64.

I also have 4 gigs in my K8WE from the the Tech Tour. I have dual boot Win 32 and 64 bit and they both only see 2.5. I haven't looked at my BIOS in a while but when I brought this issue up to Tyan, they said to update the bios which I did. I don't know if a new version of the bios has...

with subsequent install/uninstalls, I can get to the startup screen for the TV function, but I get 'unable to start' in the menu window then it kicks me into PC check.

How do you set up VIVO on an x800xl? I have a PowerColor PCI-e version and I can't figure it out. I have installed, uninstalled all of the latest drivers from the ATI website. PC check tells me I'm missing the Rage Theater Video Capture, but I can't find any video capture either on the CD or...

I can't even get that far. I've installed mmc, wdm, catylast control panel. None of those things come with the video capture driver. Where do you find the video capture driver? It's asking for ATI Rage Video Capture driver.

anyone know if the s2892 will drive 2 6800GT's?

Evil, Have you gotten the 246's to work with your K8WE yet?

I saw those. 2 G ECC's. That's what I'm probably going to go with. Went to crucial's website to confirm that they worked with the tyan boards. K8WE itself isn't listed, but other tyan boards are, so I really doubt that I'll have any problems with it. Still waiting on newegg to get more...

I don't think Apple will release OS X for the PC without knowing that it will work period, end of story. In doing so, then they embark on a path of being primarily about the OS rather than the hardware. It's clear that that's not what they want to do. Going down that OS route might be more...

Whatever Apple does, they need to build a significantly better machine than everyone else. They need to be able to justify the price premium that they're going to charge for it. That or when they lower their prices, make it a more realistic decision when choosing between an Apple and regular...

I have the bluetooth one because I have it on top of my wacom and I need to slide it under the tray under my work surface.. It's much faster typing than my old logitech wireless wavestyle keyboard. I was concerned about hand cramping from the angle but I have never experienced that. The...

I ordered 2 x 2005's and 1 x 2405 for $2,041.43 shipped

I agree, it loads way too slow. I lost interest after waiting and I have a 5m bit connection. Make it load faster and I will look again.

This is pure speculation and rambling on my part. Given a choice, I'm think that Apple will probably go with Intel over AMD because of costs and capability to produce. But this begs the question, how many G5's does apple sell that AMD couldn't meet the demand? Is it because AMD is seemingly...

Hi Frag, Got this from Wacom Tech Support Then I got this the next day I too work at a college. I'm not crazy about not having drivers for my stuff. I will build a dual boot machine to deal with it or share devices on my other boxes. The tablet is one of the main tools that...

It looks like that hotel in Dubai(sp?).

I have been reading that it's easier to softmod 6800 AGP cards into quadros than it is PCI-E.Granted I'm mostly 2d, but I do want to start moving into 3d. I have the software, I just haven't had time to sit down and just force myself to learn it. Still, I'm in the researching phase. I will...

Hi Ice, The reason I chose that memory is that it's recommened on the Tyan website of tested memory with 2895. But I've been rethinking the 64 bit OS. I've been researching my scanner (Epson Expression 1640XL) and printer (also epson) and Wacom tablet. At the moment, there are too...

Ice, You rock dude. However, what are the disadvantages to using Win2k3 server versus xp64 bit? It's unfortunate that the Cenatek software isn't 64 bit. The price difference between Cenatek and Superspeed is huge. Also, I'm considering this memory. thanks

Got a response from Cenatek So it looks like I will need to figure something else out with regard to a scratch disk.

I'm looking at 252's. I'm guessing that will be okay with PC3200. Thanks. When I figure out everything that's going into this rig, I will post it for feedback.

Thanks Ice, I will read up on those links. I had been researching solid state drives for scratch in this thread. Someone else in that thread recommended Cenatek as well. Do you or anyone know if that Ramdisk software will work with XP 64 bit? Price wise, Ramdisk seems like the way to go...

I have been asked by an ad agency to put down a bid on an image that when complete will be about 10.6 Gigs at the resolution and size the client is asking for. There are three other artists who are up for this assignment. They have not yet picked out who is going to do it. Currently, I...

No, it's going on the floor. Thanks for the suggestion though.

Getting back to the ram issue, does anyone here run more than 8 Gigs of PC3200 ECC? I'm considering building a rig with K8WE and 16 Gigs and I'm wondering if I'm going to run into any problems. Is it better to get PC2700? How much memory do you guys have? What brand and what speeds?
