I was wondering what GPU to add into an older system that will be used for some light gaming.
It has an e8400 that was OC'd to 4Ghz when it was my main system. Now I have it running at 3.6Ghz.
It has 8GB of DDR2, a 2TB HD, Win7 64, and a Corsair 620W power supply. All gaming would take...

I was considering going for a 3 monitor setup for my next upgrade...

I have never seen anything like it.
10 250GB SSDs, 2 590s, a $4k CUDA card, 2 $1700 Xeon procs and the list goes on. Amazing stuff.
I can't wait to see the finished product-before I go there and......errr...

I just updated my signature rig below with a new E8400 which I am running @ 4.1 Ghz stable. What I feared would happen, happened though and I now have the upgrade bug. I was looking to just sit back now and add a new GTX280 or a 4870x2 when I can find one cheap (scan hot deals for a month or...

But I could not get Super Pi to finish 32M without it not responding at some point. I raised my voltages to...
