This should help for actually putting things together. You will want a case to have as many intake fans as exhaust. Keeps the air flow even. Some cases may only come with a front fan while having the back spot empty. You would have to buy another fan of the right size. I highly recommend...

TBH I think the power of the GTX 480 is what will hold it back from adoption by far rather than random performance and high price. Needing new PSUs and the heat and noise of it all. Go down to the GTX 480 and 5870 videos. The guy tells you what he does as the card goes from idle to load (3DMARK...

The 5970 is 2 GPUs on 1 card. You'd think they would have called it a 5870 X2 but they just went with 5970. The 4870 X2 is also 2 GPUs on 1 card. (2 card in crossfire would come up as Model Crossfire or 2x Model. X2 is different as it is part of the name. The 5970 happens to be clocked a little...

Tom's Hardware Anandtech HardOCP - Pits the dual GPU 5970 vs GTX 480 in SLI Hexus FiringSquad This is a paper launch as the cards will not hit retailers for at least 2.5 weeks. (April 12th). And from there we will have to see if they are sold out from lack of supply. I quickly read through...

Newegg has some Corsair PSUs on sale atm. Free shipping and up to $45 off. If there are any mail-in rebates that's even better. The 650TX is said to be a quiet unit compared to 750.

Think ATI will drop prices now? :D I guess we still have to wait for the NDA to lift. Make sure the other reviews from trusted sites match up.

I'm guessing the NDA doesn't get lifted for another few hours. Nvidia in the past has given reviewers who are more sensationalist to publish first. We will have to see if those who are first to publish are overly positive compared to Anandtech etc. Hexus had a review up (of the GTX 480, no...

The main issues I've had with keyboards in the past is the rubber under the key breaking (especially on wasd). I don't remember which brands or models but they were basic keyboards ($20).

Anandtech just posted that it's 850watt PSU probably is not enough for whatever gets tested for tomorrow so they asked for a new PSU. Antec got them a 1200Watt psu. Wonder how many people will have to upgrade their PSUs for a single GTX 480.

The demo was being run on a triple SLI config for CES2010. I bet the detail and physics would not be as high with a single card config. Videos of demo The first video shows what looks like the computer crashing (end of the video). For ATI's claims about performance increases from the driver...

So it looks like ATI just pushed through a driver release with performance increases spanning a lot of games and a lot of cards. More than a single driver release normally focuses on. They be getting ready for the Nvidia show down. Like running DX11 in Dirt2 and HAWX.

That really sucks. And it wasn't even cancer or something. :( He was great. I even watched an episode of greatest american hero last week.

Yeah, basically taking full advantage of your HDTVs resolution is revealing how terrible SD content can really look and not doing anything about it. The PS3 does have an option for Scaling and Smoothing but it isn't the best I don't think. Not far off from plugging in the old console and doing...

I edited my post above but it says the same thing basically. If there is a retail store that does 30 day returns even on open box stuff then you could buy and watch prices still. But then you would be paying more $$ than online. You'd only have to wait until Monday to see if there was an...

Don't buy now or you may regret it. Prices could drop or they may not right away. But you won't know until until after the reviews show Nvidia's performance and maybe wait a week into it as their stuff pops up on retail sites. If ATi doesn't react some what soon then they probably won't until...

I'd make sure to check the reviews. 5-10% is a general number. We will have to see what games and resolutions make the GTX 400 cards soar and where ATI comes out even.

Actually AMD did say full line up refresh for 2nd half of 2010. Just the speculation for how it will be 'refreshed'.

From my netbook which gets used by the wife. D:

It seems people are speculating about refresh scenarios vs new gen "northern islands". A speed bump is most likely on the same process, like 4870 to 4890 was. Nothing on dates but I'd expect fall for a speed bumped card. MSI is coming out with a card with better PWMs soon. Maybe reaching 1ghz...
