A few weeks ago I used to be a crack addict to this game, now suddenly playing it is like eating a moldy piece of bread. Someone out there please tell me I'm not the only one. To anyone thinking about buying it, you'll be lucky to get 3 months out of it.

I've been looking for something radically different from my current addiction to first person shooters and looking for something to occupy some of my time. I like how this game looks and all, I'm just wondering is it really worth the money when you don't have a ton to spend in the first place...

Well, I went to install a new zalman on my x800xt and was kinda in a hurry to get it done and wasn't paying enough attention to what I was doing........can you guess where this is leading? I crushed the core on my less then a week old x800xt. Good thing I bought it locally, just ran to the...

Hey all, Just upgraded to an X800XT and I'm looking to part with my 6800NU. I was able to unlock the 6th vertex unit with this card, unfortunately not the 4 extra pipes. Highest I've overclocked this card to is 370/850 which was rock stable. Comes in the retail BFG package which has a...

Ok, I'm sooo close to saying to hell with another vid. card upgrade, one thing is stopping me though. I've asked this in a couple other threads but didn't really get any direct answers. What kind of vid. cards are you people running that own this monitor? Also, what kind of fps do you get in...

So I've got about 700 or so to spend on this...good ol tax returns. My specs are in the sig. I've currently got a compaq mv940 19' crt, which is starting to crap out on me. I obviously don't want anything smaller then I have right now. I'd like to get at least a 19 inch lcd but I'm wondering if...

Just thought I'd post a quick thought on a new motherboard I got. I just switched out from a Chaintech VNF3-250 to a DFI Lanparty UT(s754) and this is the nicest board I've ever had the pleasure of owning. Didn't even need to reinstall windows or anything...just switched out the board, put...

512MB Kingston pc-2100: I didn't want to sell this stick at first but I've changed my mind. Shoot me a PM if interested. $45.00 Antec SL400: 400W PSU, only used for a couple months. Again, works perfectly fine. $40.00 Athlon XP 2400 2.0GHz(Socket A/462): Never been overclocked or...

Ok what I have is in my sig. I'm thinking of upgrading my motherboard from the Chaintech to one of the DFI Lanparty boards. Microcenter has it for 99.99. Anyways, reasons for this: Chaintech board seems like there is a huge drop on performance on my 6800. My aquamark score has dropped from...

My sister is having problems and I'm puzzled as to what the problem could be, she didn't have this problem until today. The only program installed recently was a lexmark printer which has since been uninstalled through safe mode along with alot of other worthless crap. Just a side note I'm also...

I just got one of these installed on an athlon64 2800, it's showing as idling in the 53-63C temp. range. Before on my old Gigabyte mobo it would idle @ 40C. What I'm wondering is does this motherboard have a temperature sensor issue at all or is my processor just plain running hot? I've...

Hey all, Didn't know where else to post this, I was thinking about ordering a Thermaltake Tsunami from these people but see they only have a 43% positive feedback rating on pricewatch. Anyone here have any experiences with them? Good or bad? They've got an allright deal on this case and...

So I'm talking with a guy on a different website, and he's looking for a 6800nu b/c x800pro's aren't supported under linux. He's looking to trade his BBA x800pro for my BFG6800nu with some cash to make it fair. What are you peoples opinion on this? Think it would be an allright upgrade to...

Hey all, Just a quick question. I have an Athlon64 2800 socket 754 on a gigabyte motherboard. If I were to get dual channel pc-3200 ram would I have problems at all. Just concerned about compatibility before I go ahead and buy something. Was looking to get either Corsair value select, PQI...

So I was wondering if anyone could maybe point me in a direction in which to go from where I'm at now. Tried to install a new Gigabyte K8VT800M tonight for my athlon64 I just got, after I installed it I couldn't get any video signal at all. I was also unable to get a signal from my mouse and...

So I've been told in order to install a new mobo going from socket 462 to 754 and a diff. manufacturer I would NEED to do a fresh windowsXP install. What I'm wondering since I don't have a windows install disk is there any way possible to bypass doing the fresh install. I can't afford to...

I didn't know whether to put this in the processor or motherboard forum, would this be an allright motherboard for an upgrade? I don't know much about motherboards. I'm limited to what I can spend and the fact I need one with 3 PCI slots thats microATX. Thx...

So as it stands I have an athlon 2400 @ 2.0ghz, I'm looking to upgrade. Would an upgrade to an Athlon64 2800+ be enough to futureproof my comp. for a couple years? I'm not extremely knowledgable in the processor category. So could anyone/someone out there clue me in on this? Reason for the...

Just got a 6800 and was looking to see if anyone might be interested in trading the below for my built by ATI 9600XT? I'm looking to find an Athlon64 2800+(socket 754). I would also accept $110USD shipped. Let me know if you're interested. Card is only 3 months old, has been...

So has anyone in here ever dealt with the warranty from BFG? I want to oc my card really bad but don't want to void that warranty. Has anyone in here oc'd their card and still been able to use the warranty? Just can't decide if it's worth the benefits of oc'ing or not.....
