I don't have the tv but if all else fails can't you just setup brightness through your video card drivers? I know with nvidia you can go into the drivers and adjust brightness, contrast and gamma for 2d apps or all if im not mistaken.
Well, from what I've read of this thread this is a good monitor for computers. I'm also interested in hooking up a 360 to it as well. The 360 on my 2405fpw screen has left me wanting something that will work better with both. While my 2405 is excellent for my computer it has not been so...
I picked one of these up at newegg a couple of weeks ago for $100. The printer is now $80 with free three day. The printer is small and fast at printing. It prints the first page in only a few seconds. The printer is simple to install on a network, and If you don't need all the bloatware...
I know your getting tired of my questions, so I will ask one last one. Do you know exactly when they will send coupons? I haven't seen anything mentioned on their site.
thanks for the info.
Looks nice. I'm looking at a very similar setup with two ko edition cards and an audigy but I'm worried about air getting to the outside card next to the sound card. Is the EVGA ACS 1 card able to get adaquate enough amount of air with the x-fi blocking it?
Is that KO edition able to get enough air with the audigy against the fan like that? I have two KO edition cards and an audigy 2 I would like to slap on this board but I'm afraid the card next to the audigy will starve for air while gaming.
Can you tell me if the board will house 2 x EVGA 7800 gtx KOs and 1 x audigy 2? The heatsink on the KO edition looks like it might be a little close to the pci slot. The other thing that worries me is wether it will get adaquate enough air with the audigy blocking it.
No I'm not getting any digital sound. The spidf out on the sound card is enabled becuse thats the only thing feeding a signal to the receiver from the sound card and im getting pro-logic. I'm using Media center 2005 and Nvidia purevideo decoder to play movies. No other applications have been...
It's a pioneer receiver and polk audio speakers. My equipment isn't top of the line by any means but there is a very noticable difference when dts is on. When I'm playing a dvd on my home theatre setup the sound is decoding in dts and there is a very noticable seperation in rear channel. When...
Well I tried that over the weekend with my onboard audio using the spdif and it was only decoding dolby pro-logic. I then stuck in a turtle beach riviera with the spdif out and was getting the same exact problem. I am using the 30 day trial of the nvidia purevideo decoder but it says you get...
I need a sound card for my htpc that will allow me to play DTS through my receiver. I was looking at BlueGears/HDA Digital XMYSTIQUE7.1 ,but it is not listed on Nvidias website as supported hardware for their Purevideo dvd decoder. Anyone, know if this card will work in DTS with Nvidia...
I just received and installed mine today. Install was painless and getting it to work in Media Center 2005 required me to go through the setup again. Once setup in Media Center it is easy to use.
My only problem is that some channels will have this like hiccupping effect where it's just not...
I'm in the process of completing my small htpc but I still need to get a tv tuner card to watch and record tv. I'm currently running a 6600gt and I'm using Nvidia's PureVideo Decoder to play DVD's in Microsoft MCE 2005. I've heard that the Ati theater 550 pro is one of the best. I was...
Anyone know how disable the boot logo other than hitting the tab key? I've looked all through the bios and can't find anywhere to permanently disable it.
I'm running the cu51ma20 bios.
thanks
Still want to change out the power supply and sound card. Just added two sata drives along with a tv tuner card.
System:
Microsoft MCE 2005
Amd 3200+ venice
Biostar tforce 6100-939
1gb corsair
Bfg 6600gt
Powercolor theater 550 pro pci-e 1x
160gb seagate sata (system and...
Thanks for the comments. I actually bought the case a few months before I even planned the system. I wasn't really sure if I liked it or not, but It was the best case of choice and only cost $110. I have since then come to love the case.
My 3dmark05 score was 11439. I just ran the test...
I had a couple of these slot blowers lying around and wasn't sure how well they would work with the card sucking in and the blower pushing out. I thought it might mess with the airflow too much.
I decided to pull the back plates off my case to see if it dropped my temps any and to my...
I'm in the process of my step up program to buy this card. I bought the 7800gtx when it came out and paid the 600 tag which was probably a mistake since prices came down. Too late for that now. I just went ahead with the new card since its only going to cost me .99 cents plus shipping to upgrade.
