I actually was using the newest ones, 169.25, I simply made a typo in my original post, haha. Anyway, I installed Vista on another HDD and it had the same problem but someone suggested trying the drivers it came with (167.26 I think) and it's all fine! I feel stupid having not tried this...

I checked that and it seems to be running at 16x and according to GPU-Z it seems to be as well. I'm going to install Vista on another HDD and see how it runs with this card before I return it.

I tried that, putting the 7600GT (Which is still running fine, woo.. :/), uninstalled the drivers, turned it off, put in the 8800GT, installed latest drivers and same, silly problem. But the drivers were completely removed, that's just why I don't see how the problem could persist if it was...

But.. how? I've considered bizarre things like it might causing it to run at 7600GT speeds but if that was so, it would run most games I've tried smoothly and I fail to see how removing the card and purging the drivers could somehow create a problem that persists in the 8800GT or for some...

Ideally, yeah, and I usually would have but I guess I was just in a hurry (Finally got the card and could finally play some games). :/ Anyway, ultimately would it cause a problem like this? I considered it might be due to my process but I can't figure out how it could cause it. The drivers were...

What I did: - Took out my temp card, my old 7600GT, put in my new 8800GT (My PSU is modular so I just plugged in a PCI-Express cable which is just some 6pin thing) - Uninstalled Nvidia drivers, reset into safemode, used Driver Cleaner - Reset, went into normal Vista [x64] and installed the...

Unfortunately they didn't have OCZ at the store with the best RAM prices and at the other stores it's way expensive. D: So I'll stick with Corsair. Guys, I'm about to order the parts but I have one main question left I desperately need answered: is a 450W Corsair power supply ample to power...

Are there any "Thanks to F@H we have accomplished x" comments other than just big numbers? I know I'm being cynical and there are few to no reasons why I shouldn't run it (Especially since this PC is on almost 24/7) but I'm just curious.

Really? Well, I've decided to buy from different stores now anyway, I end up with a way better price. Also, getting 4GB of RAM straight away too, woo. Just need to decide which brand, I'm thinking GEiL because it's $99 for 2x1GB DDR800 but also considering Corsair which is $115 for the same...

We'd probably get another 2GB of RAM in 2-3 months. :) Okay, I got a quote from this store and is kind of more expensive than the others, or when I buy the parts from different stores so this thread is mostly useless now. :D One thing though, the guy from the store said a 450W power supply...

So, I'm building a new system and one of the stores I may be buying from may be able to get me a slightly cheaper price but for some bizarre reason they don't have any Gigabyte motherboards, sigh, so I may possibly need to choose a new motherboard but I really don't have any idea. The...

That was surprisingly hard but I eventually went with Mass Effect though I'd have no problems choosing Halo3, BioShock or Orange Box, hell, even CoD4. Awesome year for gaming which is good because I'll be taking a break from gaming for 2 years soon. :(

Sounds epic, wish I could go. :/ I'll probably on the SALanning forums and ask around for Bris suggestions, or just go wild on Google; thanks.

Kyorisu, you seem to be in the know of Australian LANs, are there any good QLD (More specifically, Brisbane) ones around any more? I'd love to go to one [again] before I head off for a few years. Or know of somewhere where they discuss this and I could find out more info..

I want a new Monkey Island, damn it. Tim Schafer mentioning the Secret of Monkey Island was like a stab in the heart. :(

I've been constantly thinking about Close Combat every few days for the past 3 weeks and I really, really want to play it again. :(

Well, I'll take a look at them both and will probably buy at least one. :)

That video + the linked guide are pretty useful, anyone have any similar things for other classes?

Hypocrite.

I <3 the first RoN but the second sucked (Rise of Legends) so badly. Now I want to play RoN, time to try and find a copy.
