What do you guys think....

On my second rig, my first videocard is on the same IRQ as my soundcard. My second videocard is on the same IRQ as my OHCI Compliant IEEE 1394 Host Controller. I haven't had any issues or conflicts. Now my question is, on both my rigs its the same. Should i be worried about this or no?

Just wondering...I was just looking at this and noticed it and want to be sure its nothing to worry about. My rigs specs are in my sig.

Thanks for the help.
 
Interrupt sharing is nothing to worry about; all modern PCs do it. Occasionally some finicky hardware might not like it, but if you aren't having any problems then you should be fine.
 
You should have enough interupts to go around, change them manually in the device manager. While in todays computers different hardware ipieces share the same IRQ it's still more efficient for them all to have their own, thus meaning fastar putar...

There's no need to do that, unless you need 2 more points in 3dmark. More likely to fuck something up than speed your computer up.

I wouldn't do that unless you have problems that you know result from interrupt sharing. This isn't the 90s anymore. :p
 
Hey, [EuR]Fr3nCh_T3rRoR

Can you please contact me about the refund for these 7800GTXs. I can't seem to reach you via PM.

Thanks
