    Go 7800gtx

    Did a search for the Dell XPS M170 and came up with this : http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,1895,1859229,00.asp There's an XPS m140 apparently (14.1 inch screen widescreen). Both seem to be Media Center pc's though. Definately have to keep an eye out for that one - it could very well...

    X2 3800+ new higher overclock!!!

    Yeah I tried it - no go at all.....I think all the little problems I've had with the Asus is starting to add up. This asus board is starting to melt down.....think I might go DFI if I can find one locally, maybe I'll have better luck with that board than this ridiculous asus.

    nvidia told reviewers to use Quality instead of High Quality? Poor AF Performance?

    Heh well I'm on a 6800gt SLI rig, and performance has been pretty steady even with all the optimisations off (though not HQ under the sliders).

    nvidia told reviewers to use Quality instead of High Quality? Poor AF Performance?

    The nvidia control panel has been fairly flakey from what I can tell in terms of turning the Trilinear/AF optimizations. For it to stick in my case 100% of the time I had to switch off the Trilinear/AF optimizations under the global profile, reboot, and then nearly every game will be...

    SLI not working in Battlefield 2? (7800GTX)

    From the readme : VIDEO QUALITY SETTINGS - The word 'LIGHTING' is used in the front end Video Options page. This setting also controls the use of normal maps in the game. On the 'MEDIUM' setting normal maps are used on static objects only. On the 'HIGH' setting normal maps will be...

    BF2 Retail Ships With Spyware Embedded?

    IIRC it prompts you if you want to install Gamespy Arcade (which you don't have to). The in game browser works fine without it.

    vsync & SLI

    vsync doesn't work with AFR, but it should work with SFR. http://www.nhancer.com/help/sli.php Also the widescreen problems have been fixed to a certain extent, though there are some monitors that still exhibit problems. The 2405fpw is definately now working with widescreen + SLI...

    Poll/opinion is Killzone Realtime or not

    I think a lot of people are seriously misunderstanding what's going on. If you put two + two together, the Killzone footage was part of a pre made video montage that Sony played at the conference to give people an idea of what to expect from next gen games. Judging by what Mark said...

    Xbox 360: Why would they use a DVD ROM?

    Typical 16x DVD = Data Transfer Rate /read: 21.6Mb/sec (16X Max.) 1x Blueray = 54Mb/sec There's a rumor of a 6x Blueray drive being the target for the PS3 as well.

    Xbox 360: Why would they use a DVD ROM?

    It isn't entirely about space really, as Blueray also appears to be significantly faster than DVD rom drives. DVDrom = 11 megs/sec off the disc Blueray = 54 megs/sec off the disc Depending on how fast the PS3 drive is, they can literally stream something like 300megs/sec off the disc alone.

    PS3 specs confirmed! Holy Cow

    Anand's article mentions that the RSX GPU can access main system ram as well (via something like TurboCache).

    SLI + 6800GT + Widescreen = ?

    73.00 32bit drivers from 3dchipset seems to have fixed this for me. DVI @ 1920x1200 on a 2405fpw is now stable running SLI in WoW. Going to test more later.

    SLI + 6800GT + Widescreen = ?

    I can't speak for the 6600 series cards, but generally speaking most of the people who have had this problem are 6800gt/ultra owners (I think mostly the early adopters as well).
