    Need help with cheap video card decision!

    So really, maybe putting any money into this set-up is worthless...meh. I figured a free 915GVA + CPU might give me a cheap n'easy upgrade path that would tide me over until I decide to invest big money into a new hi-po rig; however, it seems like its all too outdated. Is there any promise in...

    Need help with cheap video card decision!

    No, it's this one: http://www.bjorn3d.com/read.php?cID=305 I'm looking at 9800GTs and 4650/4670 - so would a PSU upgrade be required as well? For older games (and a little Moder Warfare 2) would the CPU/chipset/RAM really be the bottleneck here? I'm not looking for great performance...

    Need help with cheap video card decision!

    Also, my current primary rig is a Penryn powered Macbook pro with a 8600GT that's running XP. I'd like to get slightly better gaming performance out of this cheap rig - are such expectations reasonable?

    I'll be reusing the Enermax 450 Dual Fan in my sig. It should work/be enough, shouldn't it?

    Need help with cheap video card decision!

    Hey guys, I've been out of touch with hardware for a while, so I need some guidance. I'm getting a free Intel 915 GVA motherboard with a 3.0ghz P4 on it. I'm going to be running 3gb of DDR400 with ~500gb of storage. I'm looking to use it as a casual web / old gaming rig (+ a little L4D...

    Xbox360 via BFG6600GTOC help

    I think this is an easy question, but I'm a little stumped. How do I get my Xbox360 to display on my monitor? I have a BFG 6600 GTOC which comes with a HDTV dongle, but I can't figure out what settings/software to use in order to get the video card to switch over the source from the desktop...

    Christmas gift to myself

    Because my upgrades are progressive, and I recently came into some new games that I'd like to play over Christmas break, and seeing as my time is limited, I'd like to at least have a reasonable time unwinding with them; hence, using them along side current hardware.

    Christmas gift to myself

    After exams I'm getting a new card to replace my GF4200 that has lasted me for two years.... I've narrowed it down to these, as they all fit in the 200-350CAD price range, and I'm not really prepared to go any higher for a cutting edge video card... 6600GT AGP (If it isn't vaporware) 6800...

    Is the Mitsubishi 22IN DP2070SB-BK CRT Best?

    It's very nice. I owned a FE971SB (it died - I think it was abused at the store), got a FE771SB as a replacement + 200 additional dollars I paid for the 19'. My buddy also has the FE991SB and it's very nice; anything from that line will definately serve you well. Just keep in mind that they...
