I am looking for two non reference coolers to replace the 290x reference design coolers. I figured someone might have gone watercooling and have some laying around. Let me know.
Just decided to put up a video. I've seen some reviews of 760 triple SLI that they lost FPS in Crysis 3. Seems to work pretty good to me. Seems to be about 780Ti SLI speed @ 1080p..and the videos I saw they weren't really maxxing out in-game quality settings (AA/AF/motion blur).

Is there a media streamer that will stream bluray backups encoded in x264/flac/mkv? I want to use ripbot264 to backup my bluray movies @ 1080p keeping 5.1 or 7.1 audio in flac wrapped in a mkv container. It seems the wd tv live plus comes close, but doesn't support flac in mkv really well at...

Obviously the issue of dissipating the heat from a performance desktop gpu while not making a laptop that is too huge/heavy is an issue, but if that could be done it is possible it could be done? ATI/Nvidia sell their mobile segment gpus for laptops, but if someone could get around the cooling...

anyone that do x264 encoding notice that when doing any two pass with x264 usually less than 50% of the cpu's 8 threads are used?

I just got in my new core i7 parts (920/GA-EX58-UD3R/Corsair Dominator 1600) and just my luck it looks like the board is DOA.

I installed a fresh copy of XP Pro 32-bit, the 8.7 official drivers, etc. I installed and patched GRID (1.2 I believe) and if i enable crossfire and start the game the game play is seriously maybe 1 frame every three seconds. If I disable crossfire the game runs smooth as silk...I see sites with...

so i grabbed a 4850 to replace my 8800gt last week. i didn't even touch the cd that came with the card, and made sure to download the "hotfix" drivers from the amd game site (or whatever the hell it is). i installed those and everything seemed fine except for the high temps. so my issue is I can...
