    damnit nvidia.....

    everything said here has been valid. of course your really not going to notice the difference in a few mip map changes, but what the guy said in the article made A LOT of sense. if im going to shell out 400$ for a grphx card i better get the best with no little exceptions that make it better...

    damnit nvidia.....

    you know i was a nvidia fanboy even through the times of them destroying all the was voodoo. up until last year i was with them, then the crap about IQ being changed to make their cards look better and faster. out comes the 6800 ultra and i thought and read that it was all cleaned up finally...

    NV40... looks like ATi are in trouble

    the whole idea between the bridge between agp and pciexpress is to start the transition. get people working on this and try to make a buck off it while you can. then they will fully transition to native pci express. the 8 x2 is different from the 16x1 architecture from what i understand. the 16...

    9800pro owners, question for you..

    ummm halo can do a number on the card at times. kinda weird. i usually just turn off player shadows or specular. the shadows are not that good anyways. specular just makes things look shiny.

    5200 is NOT the way to go. terrible card, absolutely horrible. i sold my old one for 40 bucks. sell that thing and buy a 9800 pro. thats what a i did. the 5200 is a complete piece of junk when it comes to dx9 titles. i tried it on halo for a little before i installed my 9800 pro. i had to turn...

    Help with new vidcard... Please?

    looks like your memory might be underclocked a tad. you would probably be better off going to site like www.guru3d.com or www.rage3d.com and asking this question on their forums. you would getter faster and much more accurate responses. not trying to offend anyone on here, you guys are very...

    benchmarking points?

    id say mid 4000's to upper 4000's. with overclock you would get maybe low 5k's. the 2 ghz processer will create a minor bottleneck depending on its fsb. if you oced your 9700 than you might get better scores. like someone said though. dont count to much on benchmarks. they have become useless in...

    Nero problem

    go to run in your start menu and type regedit. then look around in software for any nero. you anything just delete it right there. that should do it. also go to add/remove progs and look in there.
