• Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
    Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

my friends has a 26' westy widescreen and he is running 8500gt

what should he be running..he doesnt game alot but he watches tv via his computer and fixin to upgrade his cable to hd.
 
I would say probably an ATI 3850 or 3870. Gaming wont be tremendous with that high of resolution, but those cares have HDMI with audio passthrough, seems like a very good option for your friend. Plus, the price is very competitive.
 
8500 has good decode and video playback. I sport an 8500 in my Media Center PC and it plays HD-DVDs and Blu-Rays like butter.
