I agree the mx1100 sucks. The lag on small movements is horrible. I can barely use it. heck, with this mouse i have a hard time clicking the start menu button. :( ..unless I get right over it the first try moving the mouse quickly. Searching the Internet it's a common complaint on the...
ah this thread brings back memories. Was big into SGI machines back in the 1990s...anyone remember the SGI Magic Bus??? Other 3D players were Accelgraphics and the one from Mitsubishi....remember their 3D ram? Evans and Sutherland? Intergraph had some neat 3D workstations back then...
Those temps sound typical. I was hitting nearly 100C with a TRUE RT with a 920 @ 4GHz 1.27 volts. I lapped it and the temps went down to upper 70s to mid 80s. I'm using the standard FDB fan that came with it so it's not the fastest fan in the world. I like it because it's quiet though.
Anyone know if any of the 285 cards will be available to someone with a 280? I'm not sure I want the extra heat or power requirements of a 295. One of the OCed 285s might be a good trade-up. :cool:
buy.com is slower than a dead snail stuck in superglue when it comes to shipping. I placed two separate orders with one item each on Friday and they still haven't shipped. One was a g00gle checkout order using the $10 coupon (never used g00gle CO before). All the other orders I placed on...
what's with all the DFI h8? I have a DFI SLI-DR Expert board and this thing owns my nuts. Overclocked Opteron 170 to 2.75 with only slight raise in voltage (1.4V). works great and use RMClock to idle down to FID 5 and 1 volt. I tried my best to get it to crash but making the voltage go up...
There's talk that the new revisions are reporting more accurate temps. I have a new board I got last week and the temps seem fine as far as I can tell. Low 30s at idle, 46ish at full prime burn. currently idle now at 24C with the chip at 1.05V 1375MHz. This is an Opteron 170 2.75GHz @ 1.4V...
Most of that seems to be talking about it being damaged as a result of modifying it. I think that's what their main concern is based on my ATI and BFG experiences...
BFG basically has the same thing in their warranty terms: http://www.bfgtech.com/tech_redux.html
but u can read more in...
You can still possibly change the cooler on it and they wouldn't care as long as what is wrong with it wasn't caused by changing the cooling on it. I changed my cooler on my ATI card and RMA'd it and they sent me a new one. But what was wrong with it had been wrong with it from day 1 so had...
With the Lords of Cobol on our side we need to go and bust on this dude. It's scary that retards like that are just a click away on eBay. :(
Karma can be a bitch sometimes though... :cool:
BTW I second the getting in touch with AMD thing. It just might help...
This is similar to my experience with ATI. I purchased an ATI AIW 9700 and had two problems with it as soon as I got it but were small and didn't think much of them. Anyway, I bought a Zalman to put on it to quiet it down and make no noise. Worked fine. Well, a bit over a year later I sent...
I just got an email an hour ago stating that Dell credited me my money to my CC today and should show up on there in 2-3 days. :cool:
Still going to moan and bitchto them and hope that these concession coupons rain down on me like manna from heaven. Maybe some credit on my purchase, too...
I've had nothing but non-stop screwups from Dell. everyone's getting 100$ concession coupons but me WTF ??? They've never given me squat. I, too, am fighting to get the money refunded to my CC from the refusal of a monitor (unopened!!). $1,050. They received it on March 10th and I've called...
I have two here and no noise on either of them.
I do know of the noise you're talking about because my 2000FP has it ONLY when it's turned on AND the brightness is turned down really low, and then it slowly goes away after about 20-30 seconds.
old times --> If a tree falls down and no one's there to hear it, did it make a sound?
new times --> If there's a dead pixel and no one can see it, is there really a dead pixel?
:D
If you got a new one exahgned to you, where did it come from? I got one exchanged to me but it came from Ohio and I thought only refurbished ones come from Ohio? There appeared to be fingerprints on it which makes me think it is refurbished. Also, when you move it around it seems like...
I called up and got a replacement for mine. HOWEVER, I thought new ones came from Texas and refurbished ones come from Ohio???? I am looking at the tracking information for this one and it came from Ohio. :( I was within my 20 days so this better not be a refurbished one!
