I am running a 300watt seasonic(very good quality) That is running at moment 2 hd's 2 optical,4 case fans, a 6800 pci-e ultra and a a64 3200+ at 2.5ghz. The 12v line and 3 volt are both undervolted but they even were back on p4 board with a 9700 plain. Think many people would be...

Getting about 5500 in 3dmark05 and 13500 in 03. My ram is geil pc3200 but only the value stuff at 2.5 8 4 4 on sticker but I have read it overclocks well so I can still try tighter timings on it. The a64 3200+ I have running at 2.5ghz at moment but it seams to have more in it but that is as...

Not sure how lucky I am when I spent over 300 bucks on motherboard and cpu to be able to use the 255 buck videocard. Although not top of the line anymore my old p4 running at 3.2ghz was still fine cpu wise. Just that my 9700 non pro was getting dated and starting to chug in alot of things...

Thought I would update my thread from a month ago, took awhile but I got everything I needed to try the card out yesterday. It is indeed a 6800 ultra and works fine and overclocks to about 460/1.23(did not find max mem it might be a tad more, but at 460 gpu I start to get artifacts) When it...

Since upgrading my mainboard and cpu and video yesterday(had to do a new install) I am having trouble with IE. I could be say browsing hardforum here and it will just stop or will do it when hitting back button etc. I cant scroll or do anything within the window except minimize or max. Its...

I tried sysprep yesterday and got nothing but a blue screen and reboot after changing hardware. Dont think I did it wrong but its possible I can, also I was REAL stupid this time and did not even do a backup of my bookmarks and stuff with tweakie. Put faith in this method working and got...

I have a amd64 3200+ coming from fedex but its way overdue. Shipped last thursday and here it is friday morning and still not here. Was shipped as 2 day service and getting any real info out of their customer service is near impossible. Learned aparently due to backlog and weather they...

If you look at nvplanet there is a recent preview/review of the pci-e ultra with close up pictures etc. Thats the same card I was sent except in oddly some of their pics they have a copper heatsink and in others its strait aluminum. The one I have has no copper elements to it. On the back...

Yea its not retail or anything, it came in a unsealed anti static bag and in a white box. Like I said was from their refurb section and was listed as not new. They listed it as a xfx but I doubt it, just like they were wrong about it being agp. Ebaying it or keeping it till I can get a...

I saw last week for 255 a agp 8x dd3 256meg dd3 in monarchs refurb section, thought it was a evga limited edition. It was clearly listed as agp but when I got it its a pci-express card that matches exactly the pci-express 6800 ultra on nvplanet(cept some of the numbers are slightly diff on some...
