Should i wait next month to see if the price drops due to the supposed GTX 880 reveal? My Cards sold faster then i expected and now i am GPU less (well aside from what my i7 can muster) i'd hate the idea of being PC game less for 1-2 months but i'd hate to buy something only to have it drop $100...
I have a Q8400 dual core clocked at 3.6GHz, i also have an ATI 4850.
which is more in need of upgrading? At certain points during more intensive games i'm getting slow downs but i'm not sure if its my video card now being able to handle it at 1900*1200 or if its my CPU being bogged down. I...
3.6 it did without skipping a beat, with the stock cooler
4ghz it did on the stock cooler but didnt seem stable
4ghz with my Zalman 9700 and it seems stable, going to have to benchmark it and keep an eye on it

So i picked up a Sapphire HD 4850 card and i love it, however i'm not thrilled at how hot it gets, paticularly since the room my PC is in isnt as cool as i'd like it. As such i picked up

I've been planing on upgrading my pc for a while now but i've been flirting with the idea of shifting over to a Mac. my PC use to be mainly for gaming but i've been making the shift to consoles recently. That said i still play wow (and will want to play starcraft 2) thankfully Blizzard makes...
I want to get a new PC but i'm been torn as to if i build a new one or buy one from a PC shop. I'm been building systems for myself others for years now and i'm kind of burnt out of it. it doesnt excite me like it use to so i'm thinking i may just pay a little extra and have one build for my...
I have a budget of $1700 including LCD. I already have two 320gb Sata hard drives in raid so i don't need a HD, just everything else.
List a wish list or link me one of someone else has already made a good list.
Thanks
EDIT - It'll mostly be a Gaming PC. Sure i'll rip and encode stuff but...
Each 8800GT is 230-240 bucks. so total is $480. The ATI is $460. Now this Anand says the Nvidia in tandem is faster here. Now the ATI is a single card which would let me use a less expensive MB vs an SLI enabled one for the two cards. I'm not sure if its possible to use Two 3870X2 in crossfire...
I'm upgrading my pc. All these dropping prices and the fact that i havent upgraded in years now has finally done it for me.
I am planning on the new E6850 Core 2 Duo @3.0
The problem is the MB. i dont know what to pick! Initially i was set to go with a P35, probably Abits latest one as...
Some of the random servers you find are truely awful. Anyone have a few they can recomend to renew my faith in humanity (or at least the on-line gaming crowd :D )
I havent touched my PC in a long time and its time for an upgrade. I dont have the money to spend on hardware that i use to so i need to be more conservative about what i get.
This is what i have in mind that do you think? My current specs are in my Sig.
ASUS P5B-Plus LGA 775 Intel P965...
I am planning on building a new PC withing the next few weeks and putting together a dream team of components for it. (Old PC is going to the wife) The system is going to be a dual everything. Dual core Athlon, Dual Vid Cards in SLI and i was going to go dual hard drives what i'm wondering is...
I picked one up recently, part of a MX combo set. It works great for the most part however every once in a while when i boot up i dont get any response from the mouse. If i unplug it and plug it back it it works again but i'm tired of having to do that. Anyone else experiance this problem and...
Ok what i want to do is this, I want to have one PC that is the main file server. Its not going to be a game machine, or if it is it will be a light weight one. Its main thing is to have large hard drives to hold various Music/Pictures/Video etc. It will be my wifes pc (who only uses a pc from...
