    Solution to NV hang during gaming Vista64/SLI

    I suffered as have many others with the dreaded Computer freeze/lock during gaming with sound looping / requiring a hard reboot syndrome. This is with any nVidia Driver higher than 169.25. It also seemed from forum research that this is most prevalent in systems running Vista (mostly 64 bit...

    World in Conflict: DX10 Performance and IQ

    Are you guys ever going to repeat the DX10 tests (BIOSHOCK, WiC, CoJ, LP) running Sli or Xfire? Folks who can afford an 8800 Ultra can also afford a pair of 640's in Sli, and I gotta tell you, frame rate issues at max settings for all of the above games all but disappear running DX10 on Vista64...

    BioShock DX10 Performance and Image Quality @ [H]

    Just for info, I average 62 FPS running Fraps with 2x8800GTS 640MBs in SLI at 1920x1200 with all settings maxed in BIOSHOCK. Also, according to Tweaknews, who has done a pretty thorough analysis, they say if you run a DX10 card under Vista and try and set to DX9 using both of the methods you...

    Lost Planet Performance and DX10 @ [H]

    Ought to repeat the test with SLI and XFire. You'll find the game significantly more playable with settings maxed including high shadows in DX10. Then you'll prove that the very best game performance is for those lucky enough to be able to afford '2' expensive high end video cards, which is...

    Anyone got the DFI 680i LT mainboard yet?

    Anyone have this mobo yet? Thinking this is my next purchase (upgrading my son's rig). Stability, and OC performance???

    the Abit IN9 32X-MAX thread

    I believe its Vista running the indexing service. I've noticed it too, annoying but not a problem with respect to operation.

    New BIOS V1.2 beta 6 released 5-20-07. Fixes a few more issues (USB) and seems stable.

    the Abit IN9 32X-MAX thread

    @ Spazilton Well bro, if you do get the DFI main board, let me know how it works out. Have always been a big DFI fan, and I'm eyeing their 680i LT. Yeah, performance on the Abit IN9-32X Max seems to be inconsistent, especially for QUAD Core owners. Interesting that their real QUAD , the QUAD...

    the Abit IN9 32X-MAX thread

    @violator SilenX makes a 40x40x10 that should fit, otherwise I believe Thermalright or Swiftech makes a canted (about 30 degrees) mini panel/tower like NB or SB cooler that you can clip a 40x40x10mm on and it would angle away from the tuniq @Tnoggin Yeah, know what you mean, I got all my...

    the Abit IN9 32X-MAX thread

    Well, I'm not finding the holes and dips exactly where X-bit Labs found them in their review of the IN9-32X Max, however, I'm beginning to think we're all going to get in the mode of removing our NB HS and getting the etched data off the 680i's to see if we can get manufacturing lot and date...

    the Abit IN9 32X-MAX thread

    @Violater, et al. Well I can't figure the main board either. Check this in my specs - when I'm OC'd to 3.2 GHz on this E6600, the memory switches to 1T Timing...even though I have 2T set manually in BIOS (on 1.1) Settings when OC'd CPU Operating Speed 'Unlinked' FSB<QDR>1425MHz (Bus 356MHz)...

    officermartinez, hanging around Abit Forums and the VideoCard section of this forum;) too busy with work too spend much time otherwise....I'm hooked on playing S.T.A.L.K.E.R. SoC.:p

    the Abit IN9 32X-MAX thread

    @ Buff, My mistake, he's getting a Quad now that prices are dropping. His current OC is 4 GHz is on an E6600 (445MHz Bus) 1780MHz QDR running 4 GBs Crucial Ballistix PC2 6400 1:1 @ DDR2 890MHz and fairly tight 4-4-4-8 timings. He's still benching. MM

    the Abit IN9 32X-MAX thread

    Violator, Are you cooling the NB at all? Is the breeze from the Tunique cooling the PWM HSF? What does uGuru report PWM temps as? Note: a 40x40x10 NB fan does alot to cool both the NB and the PWMs as both Heat Sinks are connected with the heat pipes. 1:53 on orthos seems like either a heat...

    the Abit IN9 32X-MAX thread

    Violator and officermartinez, Read the latest review of the IN9-32X Max at X-bit labs for some excellent insight on this main board and OC - especially memory settings and FSB Strap. It will help clear alot of issues and help with determining OC's. Linky...
