    What's closest to the fUNC 'Surface 1030' these days?

    Awesome, thanks! Everywhere else I checked like Newegg, Amazon, etc... Seems to have zero stock showing of almost any Func products.

    What's closest to the fUNC 'Surface 1030' these days?

    I want one, it just doesn't seem to exist in the US? I can't seem to find anywhere to actually purchase it.

    Team fortress 2? What the ...

    Umm, Valve does not own the rights to Red Orchestra or The Ship. The people that made those free mods actually made new updated versions of them to sell and perhaps (GASP!) make a living doing what they enjoy? Go figure eh?

    whats your longest time running windows without a reinstall

    I'm up to about 9 months so far after building this. On my old machine I formatted about once a year just to be tidy, but I've gone over a year easily with no troubles. I install/uninstall apps/games on this thing all the time. My two main hard drives are 36 GB raptors so when I get bored of...

    New Forceware 84.30 & 84.43 Any Oblivion Improvements?

    call me crazy, but the brightness levels with hdr enabled seem to be a bit different with the .43's. i just did a clean install of them after using the .25's since i got the game and it definately seems a bit more vibrant than it was. :eek:

    LCD's vs CRT's

    i'll be using my 22" nec multisync until it explodes on me. i just hope that when that finally happens there will be a suitable lcd replacement for me to choose from that won't kill my eyes. i'm one of those people that can see the difference in the quake 3 framerate test(you can also try it in...

    Logitech MX1000 Problems...

    so if he installed SetPoint without removing the MouseWare software and is looking in the MouseWare screen the "my mouse" tab will not be displayed as control of the mouse would now be handled by the SetPoint software. could be an honest goof if he's just used to looking at the mouseware icon/tabs.

    SLI Acquired! BUT Buyers BEWARE

    i got my bfg 6800gt from chumbo and have nothing but praise for their service. sorry to see that someone else had problems, but they are a smaller place and these things do happen on occasion to ANY retailer of any sort. please don't crap on them for one or two incidents. i'm betting that for...

    Why bother OC'ing 6800 GT's?

    so telling somebody they are basically lying about their performance is not talking to them with an attitude? so i guess i'm full of shit also then by your "standards". yes i have my drivers set to quality not high quality. i'm not sure how much difference that makes, but i've NEVER seen my...

    Why bother OC'ing 6800 GT's?

    actually i have a very similar system to the fellow you quoted there and i agree with him. just out of curiousity i did a quick fraps run on the Nova Prospekt level(with a nice boatload of antlions around) and even though i didn't have the time to do a nice long bench that way my results were...

    Got my new BFG 6800 GT..wow

    i also came from an over-clocked 9800 and was simply overjoyed at finally being able to get a card that would let me enjoy the monitor i got this year(22" nec multisync) in it's native res of 1600x1200 at playable framerates and more. me loves my GT :D

    refresh rates - affect performance?

    from what i understand those "extra" frames get blended somehow into the final output...but don't ask me how the hell it's done as i haven't become quite obsessed enough to know that yet :D
