    Does X800/X850 support Intel Socket 478 motherboards?

    Yeah of course it would. As long as it has an AGP slot it doesn't matter what socket it is or anything else.

    What is the difference between a PSU and a Mini-PSU?

    Could be just another of saying micro-atx psu.

    Sorry

    I haven't heard of it before so I'm not sure, I've been out of the loop for a while so if it is new I don't know how new. I would bet that it's safer to buy there than from Ebay though. :D

    Sorry

    Oh I thought the one you linked was Ebuyer, my mistake. Nothing wrong with Girotech.

    Not booting up

    If the PSU died, which it sounds like, there's not really a quick fix, it would have to be replaced I guess. But if a part in your PC died while it's still under guarantee don't they have to replace it for you free of charge?

    Sorry

    No it wouldn't damage the card. What would happen pretty much is if you tried to play a game the game would crash or something because that's when the card really needs the power. I would get the Tagan power supply you linked. Then I would recommend getting the XFX 6600GT from Ebuyer unless you...

    What is the difference between a PSU and a Mini-PSU?

    I'm not sure, but I think a mini PSU is for a micro-ATX case.

    Sorry

    The 6800 has 12 pipes. The 6800le only has 8. So I doubt you could unlock 16 pipes from a 6800le. If you want to spend a little more and get a 6800 and try it you can, but last time I checked the rate of success on the cards was low.

    I'm thinking upgrading

    It's still better to get two sticks of 512mb instead of one stick of 1gb because the 512mb sticks generally have faster timings. BF2 Demo Update: I'm running the demo at 1024x768 with high settings on, except textures and lighting quality are both on medium, but everything else is on high...

    Graphic rubbish after update

    You said that it has been a while since you last played it. If I read correctly 2 or 3 months.I don't think that upgrading HL2 caused the error, though it is possible. I think that your 9800 pro is overheating or broken, because those look like artifacts that are caused by the card. Try updating...

    I'm thinking upgrading

    I took a time out from December when I finally got my 9800 pro until now. I got out of school on June 3. :bounce:

    I'm happy to get back into the loop again.

    Questions on next-gen cards

    So they're not going to be the usual with the best costing about $500, then $400 for the next best such as the X800XT and X800 Pro when they came out?

    I'm thinking upgrading

    It is DDR RAM he has, DDR SD RAM is just the long way of saying it. ;) And the specs on the PDF file do mention that it has an AGP slot. He's all clear. :D

    I'm thinking upgrading

    No problem. And seeing as you'll have a better processor and better video card than me, you should be able to run the demo just as well, probably a little better. I'm gonna see later how high I can turn up the settings.

    I'm thinking upgrading

    Yes you definitely need to upgrade the ram and video card. You cpu is fine for now, I got the BF2 demo and I'm running 1024x768 on medium quality. It's running very very smoothly. I can probably turn some more settings up I think, because I haven't had any slowups at all and while I didn't use...

    pc questions

    No formatting is not bad for your computer. In fact it's good if you have a lot of junk on it and want to start fresh. Who's telling you that these things are bad?

    Questions on next-gen cards

    I've been out of the loop for a while (before ATi came out with the new versions of the X800 like the XL and the X850 series) and I just wanted to know what is known about the next-gen cards, the G70 and the R520. I've seen some specs and stuff from googling but I wanted to ask everyone here...

    ATI Cat 5.6 is out

    No I said high quality enables 8x AF (Anisiotropic Filtering) not AA (Anti-aliasing). I don't even need the AA though because I can't pick up and jagged edges at all, 1024x768 with no AA seems to be enough in this game for me.

    How many of you made ur computer?

    Mine was originally a Dell Dimension 2350 that I bought but I did so much upgrading once there were some games I wanted to play with good graphics I might as well have built it myself it's come so far. And I've learned a ton about computers in the process. Here's what the original specs of the...
