I actually ordered a year of Maxim and Maximum PC for $6 total, when this deal first got posted.. I just got my first issue of Maxim last week, and I'm still waiting on my first Maximum PC issue..
This isn't a scam..
I refuse to buy anything with rebates anymore..
I bought a DVD burner for "$5" but ended up paying the full $45 because staples declined my rebate for some reason..
I hate them with a passion..
ahhh.. Hardforum at its finest.. This is why I left the place.. So many n00bs who know nothing, and think their $25 generic 600w PSU is just as good as an Antec/OCZ...
Pfff.. One thing you kids need to learn is that a good PSU is the BEST way you can spend your money...
I went from an...
I have a 2600m (210x12.5) that ran superpi in 40 seconds.. This beat a p4 at 3.6.. And what did I do? I just placed an order for a 3400 and the DFI lanparty UT :)
Hrm.. I've had this done for a while, and just decided to post pics now..
It is modded to living hell.. Sinks on everything, modded bios, pots, voltages, etc..
A 9800p with a shitty R360 core (hence the crap core speed) and sammy 8E mem (the best)..
Currently runs 480/425 24/7...
Wow, I don't get why anyone WOULDN'T OC their cards.. What's the big deal? It's not like you can really mess anything up, unless you're a complete fucktard..
I don't know if you really want a 9800p with an r360 core.. It reduces the core OC A LOT! I've got mine at 480/425, but with an r350 core I'd be well into the 500s..
Hey d00ds, my brother has a problem with his computer, and It's really pissing me off because I can't seem to find what's causing it.. As stated in the title, his AGP is "off" and he can't even keep 100fps in CS (constantly) with no detail, and that's just sad..
System Specs:
A64 3000+...
my brother has the mobo and it's REALLY REALLY bad..
the 8x AGP doesnt work (he has 0x AGP which is killing him), volts can't be changed (they dont even appear), ram timings aren't an option, vcore isn't an option either... The only thing you can change is FSB... Talk about gay..

It really is Jaden.. Playing with Cal-Iers is an everyday occurance for me.. Hell, all you need to do is sign up for an ESEA account.. You won't regret it..
I don't recomend putting XT BIOS on them.. While they increase points in benches, it can give MASSIVE errors later down the line.. This is why I never flashed my card.. I don't know why everyone seems to want to..
A tip for some of you guys:
If your 128mb 9800s aren't clocking high on the core, then you most probably have an R360 core.. This came from an ATI tech that I talked to.. Supposedly R350 cores have been very short on supply so they have been using R360 cores instead..
umm.. mine did 200fsb without flashing or anything.. I kept the BIOS that came with it.. But alas, I am selling the board because I have no use for it..
