    [H] Poll: Which HMD did you order?

    Going with Vive because as much as I liked my Rift DK2 + Leap Motion combo, I didn't really care for the seated experience. Interaction is where it's at. I could wait for Touch but I like the idea of full room-scale over mostly roomscale. I think either is a fine choice though. I love the look...

    Help with Mounting a 16 TB Seagate BlackArmor Desktop NAS

    I'm not very familiar with how it works in other distros of *nix but when I mounted my NAS on my Mac, I had to add the smb:// protocol before the IP or else the mac wouldn't see it at all.

    Can you crossfire these 2 cards?

    Yep, I think I've got the same two cards crossfired right now in my rig. It's pretty nice :)

    NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780 SLI Video Card Review @ [H]

    Very interesting. I would have liked to see a test performed with Frame Pacing enabled on those 7970s but as the author said, the new driver doesn't support Eyefinity yet. I'd be interested in a couple updated benchmarks after Phase 2 is out for sure :)

    AMD Catalyst 13.8 Beta Frame Pacing CrossFire Driver @ [H]

    Good news for me, I just got a second 7950 in my system! I didn't really notice any microstuttering but maybe that's because of the high framerates I was getting. I'll have to up the settings in all my games tonight and test! :D

    WTB: Radeon 7950

    Hi, interested in picking up a second 7950. Preferably a Sapphire card as I already own the Vapor-X Sapphire card but interested in other brands, particularly XFX :) PM me with details and pics if possible. I'll work with the seller for whatever payment method they prefer. Update! I have found...

    As HD8000 nears Are only HD7000 DUDS left?

    Got a Sapphire Vapor-X 7950 (8+8 pin) last week. ASIC score of 66.6%. OC'd easily to 1250/1500 on 1.2V w/ air. Running cool @35C idle /60C max load Haven't pushed voltage to 1.3V yet but I bet I could get it to 1300/1600.

    69XX Coil Squeal

    I was wondering what this was! I just bought a 6850 and I'd never heard my card make a noise quite like that before.

    I have had it with OCZ!!

    never had a problem with my OCZ ram before but I did have to RMA a video card once to XFX. Even though it had a lifetime warranty, it took about 2 months of fighting to get them to fix it. hang in there
