    Is The R520 Too Late?

    I bought my 6800gt / Athlon 64 3400+ Clawhammer computer last July, and I plan to keep it 2 more years, so a total of 3 years. Once college starts (2007), I will build a new computer for vista.

    Freezing Problem

    Would it make sense if the same psu worked on a 1.6 ghz athlon xp (old old one) with an asus board? The only new things I have are a gigabyte nforce 3 250gb socket 939 /w a 3000+ venice. Would the new set up use more power? I also noticed my old motherboard /w the pre-barton athlon xp doesnt...

    Freezing Problem

    Sometimes on boot up it freezes also, but it still seems like power instability.

    Freezing Problem

    Ive isolated the problem. Whenever I put a cd in the cd drive (plextor or lite-on), and it starts spinning, the computer locks up. Maybe PSU problem?

    Best bang for the buck?

    That card would be perfect, it can play doom 3 with high settings, and most likely wow with everything on high. You could check around for some benchmarks at anandtech.com, or the doom 3 benchmarks here on hard ocp.

    3000+ Venice+Gigabyte Mobo Q

    This new AMD based system is for my cousin since he is still using a athlon xp 1.6 ghz, but he already has a 9800 pro and corsair xms memory so all he needs is the above. Im sure this setup wil greatly increase performance, thanks for all of the help.

    3000+ Venice+Gigabyte Mobo Q

    Will I be able to overclock this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103537 using this motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?item=N82E16813128286 to 2.0 ghz without upping the voltage?

    Leadtek A400LE Geforce 6800LE

    Yes, its 256 bit, I would believe it would atleast have the same performance, but better when you unlock the pipelines (assuming you do).

    7800GTX VS. X850XTPE...stock on AM3

    Its surprising how close the x850 actually is though for an older gen.

    Post Your OCed 6600GT, 6800GT and 6800

    I can do 400/1100 stable on my leadtek 6800gt, but, is it bad for my lcd screen when it flickers during the coolbits test or when it finds the max overclock?

    Could this the THE "Ultra"???

    Agreed, but it does make sense that it would be an ultra, otherwise they wouldnt make such an extreme breed of air cooling.

    6800 Ultra to 7800GTX

    Im waiting until next gen, it seems like my 6800 gt runs everything perfectly fine, and you can still have everything on high. Current setup: s754 A64 3400+ Clawhammer, 1 gig Corsair XMS 2-2-2-5, SB Audigy, MSI K8T-Neo, etc
