I just installed an Albatron K8SLI motherboard, and 2 Leadtek 7800 GTX's. I formatted and installed Win XP Pro, installed all the latest drivers. Here are some system specs: Albatron K8SLI Athlon 4400+ 1GB Kingston HyperX pc3200 2 Leadtek 7800GTX Forceware 78.01 driver AC 97 integrated...

First, I'll tell you about the problem. Imagine normal gameplay speed, and then multiply that speed by 6. That is how fast my gameplay is. The story movies before each mission, forget about watching them. Blink, and they are over. It really sucks. This all started when I put the Athlon X2 CPU...

Please recommend a good “most bang for my buck” upgrade. I game and encode video, mainly. I’m looking for more gaming performance, really. Here are my current specs: Abit IC7 motherboard 3.4ghz Pentium 4 Prescott @ 3.73ghz 1GB Corsair pc3200 @ 219mhz PNY 6800 GT @ 405/1.15 200GB WD w/8mb...

I was rather upset about EA's buying/acquiring the exclusive rights for the NFL, and sent ESPN video games this email: Hello. I was wondering something. Since EA has screwed you over on the NFL side, please consider making a college football game just as good as NFL 2K5 is. I'm sure just...

I just got my AV8/3500 installed, replacing my IC7/P4C setup. In the P4 setup, the Corsair pc3200 TwinX llc I have ran at 220mhz 1:1. How the heck do you get pc3200 to run at that speed in the AV8 bios? It defaults to 166mhz, and I can not find a setting to change the 5:6 ratio I'm running at. I...

I finally came back to AMD, and now I'm cutting my teeth all over again. First question, does the AV8 have the same temp reporting problem that the IC7 had for P4's? I'm running stock speeds right now, and the Abit EQ program reports the cpu temp hovering around 60c! Stock AMD cooling. Second, I...

Does anyone know if you find a tweak that helps, like in this guide, do you have to type it in the console each time you play the game?

Does anyone know of a good free one?

Could someone tell me what settings to use in the driver control panel to get the best 3dmark score? I mean under "Performance & Quality". I am just coming back from ATI since the 9700 Pro came out, and I guess I'm a little behind. Thanks!

Could somebody please give me a step by step on how to do this? Also, how do you know if you have it enabled? I'm running a 6800 GT with the 62.20 driver, and DX9.0c. Thanks!

So how many times have you watched it now? I've watched it around 20 times I guess.

My problem is, I can't get the "Apply these settings at startup" to stick. I'll set my clock to 423/1.15 on my 6800 GT, then check the box, and then click ok. But every time I boot up, the settings are back to default. What gives?

We now think we know which is the best card for Doom 3. My question is, will the 6800's be able to keep up with the X800's in Half-Life 2? I know it's all conjecture right now because the game isn't even out yet, but there are some smart people on this board, and I want to know what they think.

The problem is, every time I turn the computer on, the refresh rate is at 60hz. I set it to 90hz, but when I turn the computer off, and then the next day I turn it on, it's back to 60hz. I might not be doing something right in the driver control panel. I've been with ATI since the 9700 Pro until...

We all know that most GT's clock to Ultra speeds. We also know that GT's only have one molex power connection. Why then, does an Ultra have two molex power connections?

What's the deal with the memory heatsink? It feels like its plastic? Or does it just have a plastic shell around a metal heatsink? I'm at work right now, so all I can do is look at it, really. Also, what is the best driver to download? I'm coming back to nVidia after being with ATI since the...

Why is it that people prefer the BFG 6800 GT over other brands of 6800 GT's? I need to order a 6800 GT, so I am curious.

I have tried it twice now, and I'm a failure :( I have come to really want the extra 4 pipelines now, with Doom 3's impending release. So my issue now is see how much I could get for my X800 Pro on eBay, then decide on either a 6800 GT or go ahead and get the X800 XT Platinum, or maybe a...

Would someone have mercy on me and please send me the original bios for an ATI X800 Pro? I can't find the floppy I saved it on when I flashed to the 800 XT bios. Please someone have mercy on an idiot today. Whenever I try to play a game, all I get is a black screen. I back the clocks down to...

Back before the forum upgrade someone told me of a free program to capture video off the internet. I tried to find that thread by searching, but was unsuccessful. Does anyone know what the program might be called? Thank you.

Does anybody know of one? Thanks!

I browsed their site, but didn't see it. I just thought I would ask in case I just overlooked it. Thanks.

Yep. My 3 year old got my free Half Life 2 coupon and ran it through the paper shredder. I guess I just wanted to tell somebody. I'm going to go cry now.

I notice Sager has some Prescott notebooks. I thought the Prescott was a really hot cpu that consumed a lot of voltage. Will it work well in a notebook?

I just had to tell you guys what great customer service ATI gave me. My 9700 Pro died on me after a long time of hard service. I emailed ATI on 2/29 for an RMA#. They emailed me back that day, and I sent it up to them air. I got my new 9700 Pro today, they sent the replacement UPS Next Day. No...

I just installed a Gigabyte 8S648FX , with a 2.4c. I had to use 1 stick of Crucial pc2100 today, because I forgot to bring my Corsair with me. It boots up fine, then it gets to the screen where it shows you a summary of your hardware, and just sits there with a blinking cursor. I put my Windows...

I just built a system, and for some reason in the ATI control panel under SmartGart it says my AGP Acceleration is "Off". AGP is enabled in the bios. Here are the specs: Chaintech 7KJD Athlon 1700+ 512MB PC2100 memory ATI 9700 Pro Omega 3.10 driver Windows 2000 Service Pack 4 Here's...
