Thanks for all the suggestions and advise. Gives me some good options to check out when i'm there.

Hi Guys, I'm heading to Virgina next month travelling form the UK and considering picking up a 980ti as they will be considerably cheaper due to rip off britain. My question is, who is the cheapest reputable onlineseller that wont charge additional tax to deliver to VA? I will be happy with...

Did anybody get to test the acx cooler im in an FT02 and have always stuck to refrence blowers but the 980tis seem to be performing much better on aftermarket from what i can see. The ACX is lookgin like my preferred option.

The game was unplayable for me regardless of setting on windows 7. Upgraded to windows 8 and it has been smooth ever since. I suspect the issue is somehow related to my ageing cpu i7 920 Clocked at 3.8GHZ as im running a gtx 780.

Tested on the 580, completely different system and the issue prevails. So either the nvidia drivers or the game are bugged.

Thanks for the feedback guys. Im going to test on the GTX 580 aswell to see if its limited to Kepler.

I've just recently bought a GTX 780 since the price cuts but have noticed a weird flickering artifact. - Mostly in battlefield (It also happens in Crysis Warhead, but i was able to replicate this on my friends GTX 580 SLI setup.) I have taken a couple of recordings using shadowplay and...

They are rated for 2133mhz, but im running at 1600mhz

I have 6 memory slots

Typo, fixed 3x2GB. Ta

I am still on the x58 platfrom i7 920 d going strong. Currently i have 6GB ram. 3x2GB sticks. This has always been plenty but the new games are coming out with higher recommended requirements namely Battlefield 4 & watchdogs, and i expect many more going forward. So that leaves me with 2...

Received my screen today. Overall fairly pleased, but have one dead pixel in the bottom right, just above the windows clock also slight back light bleed at the top right, applying pressure on the bezel reduces this (although it cant really be seen under normal usage) Haven't decided if i should...

Nice review. I bought the FT-02 early on and it came with the original FN-181's which im thinking of replacing with AP-181's Not sure i see the point of these AP-182's as the RPM can easily be controlled using SpeedFan. I've got the FN-181's set at high speed on the switch and use speed fan to...

What and idiot

Call it what you will, it's a PC that sits under the TV next to my amp and looks more like a piece of AV equipment than a PC :D So in your opinion a 7850 would not be bottlenecked? If so is that from experience?

The display is 1080p, the 9800gt can't run most games at a stable framerate above 720p so that is the res I have been using. Long term I will eventually transfer my GTX 580 from my main rig into the HTPC;(I expect this to be bottlenecked but the low end cpus may have come on enough by then...

I recently upgraded the HTPC with a Pentium G630. Its accompanied by an ageing 9800GT, which is ok for playing a few light games at 720p. I am considering getting a faster GPU, and was wondering what peoples thoughts were on the fastest GPU this chip will support before it becomes a...

LOL, this made me piss myself :D thanks

Corsair memory kicks so much ass because the new vengeance series looks mean.

Such as?

Cheers Vega, informative post vs the LG. I'm just waiting/hoping that the prices of the ZR30w in the UK will drop to a reasonable level sometime soon. I'm not sure why its so pricey over here, and the supply is so bad.

Thanks for the info Kyle. Noise is very subjective and I have gone out of my way to make my setup as quiet as possible. Based on your feedback of 70-75% fan speed I have researched some videos on YouTube and have decided that the noise is too much for me. Let's hope that nvidia come up with...

Does anybody else have any experience on the noise/temps of the 480GTX in the RV02/FT02. The 480's are really cheap now and on special offer in the UK this week.I have been waiting for kyles article for weeks and am keen to know if the 480 will be much quieter in my FT02 than it normally is.

Got mine attached to mobo fan headers and switch set to low setting. Not tried controlling them using any software.

lol, what would you suggest as a replacement for an enermax 1050watt?

Just picked one of these up to replace my Temjin TJ09. Was a bit dubious at first with all the plastic, but now that its built I love it. Currently priming with i7 920 D0 at 4.0ghz temps have stabilised around 70degrees, and it's extremely quiet. I have come from a TJ09 fully stocked...

Try the older drivers. Nvidia Built in scaling has been broken in the past 2-3 releases

I've been looking for the same thing. I have been looking at PSU's all evening, and have narrowed it down to the Corsari & Thermaltake 850watt. I'm leaning towards the Thermaltake atm because its modular...

Could you provide more info on your ddr sticks please. i.e. latency & voltage thanks.

Very hard to find, would like to try and get hold of a 1 gb stick to boost the life of my ageing system. Currently have OCZ - 3-4-3-8-16-1T cant remember voltage will post up when I find out. Would like a stick of similar specs. :)

This is a mirror of a thread i have posted at the Corsair support forums, as i know there are a lot of knowledgeable guys on here: HI Guys, I have recently purchased a Gigabyte EP45-DS3, and a corsair TWIN2X4096-8500C5DF package. I am having problems getting the memory to run stable at...

I had the same problems as the OP today. Resetting the CMOS by using a metal contact to short the jumpers fixed it for me. I am now having issues gettting Corsair Dominator to run in dual channel @ advertised timings.

I am one of the best European players on there . No bots for me :-) (cant compare against US players due the the HOST/LAG bs, that plauges the game) I love the online play... Best game ever for me, and the PC version is so much better online. If you like playing bots/campaign, i would...

Haven't tried a fresh install tbh mate. Takes a fair bit with gears, and atm my gears disc is pretty damaged (wheeled over it with pc chair) and is only good for booting up the game. If i want to fresh install I have to either dload a backup or borrow my mates, both of which are a pain esp...

Sorry mate, i didn't try those drivers. Apologies for any sarcasm :D I tend not to dload drivers too much unless they are on nvidia.com previously i had 175.19 with stutter.. Lets hope they def remain fixed! These drivers are a godsend to me!! Do you play online?? Where are you from...

I agree, your good to go for a while IMO, i'm still going strong nearly 3 years later with the rig in my sig, only change i have made during the 3 years has been GPU upgrades. I play everything but cryisis on full @ 1920x1200 I realise that its lifespan is coming to an end as far as top end...

Of course i read what you put. 177.79 is previous to 177.92 ;-)

I am gaming at 1920 x 1200 With full settings. I dont use DX10 because i am on XP, but it is a waste of time anyways. because all it offers is AA and drastically decreaces performance. The game is not playable at 1080p on full settings on an 8800 Ultra & Q6600 with 4GB ram under DX10 - I have...

Gears of war stuttering fixed. Just wanted to post this up for people doing a google search as there doesn't seem to be much info highlighting this. For anybody who has experienced stuttering on gears of war i would highly recommend installing these drivers. They have now made the...
