Ultra just made up with me for any inferior product that I may have purchased in the past. They replaced my x2 750W with a Ultra X3 1000. Happy camper I am. GO ULTRA

Has anyone returned one of these power supplies to Ultra? Did you receive the same model in return? I was wondering if they'll admit that it is total crap and send you a different model of equal or greater value.

I have one still in the box and I opened it to inspect the physical characteristics and it did not have a flimsy housing and was pretty heavy. I'll have to test it and if it shits the bed like the review, if it does, I'll have to use it to power older P3 systems that I give away to less...

I decided to leave my game box the way it is: AMD 4400+ X2 A8N32 SLI 7800GTX SLI 2GB 3500LL PRO Corsair 74GB Raptors in Raid 0 Plextor 716A ETC.. I snaged a Core 2 Duo 6300 and used that instead of the Core Duo 2.66 in the P5W I was going to use to water cool and overclock etc...

Everyone is acting as if your computers will no longer work after the 27th if you don't have a Core 2 Duo. Hard OCP is on the Bubble with me because I would like to see the closest thing to "real" world benchmarks. If you are the top 10% of computer users, these benchmarks are great, but...

First of all, nice review, right on the money. Most of us in the forums have some knowledge of computers but the average consumer would have an even more difficult time in correcting these problems than the reviewers did. You should have tried to RMA the system, you would have been bribed to...

I agree. I was having video corruption especially with 2.0b shader. When I uninstalled CCC, everything was running better than fine. I also noticed that CCC should be installed as one package separate from the bare drivers, meaning don't install CCC over the bare 4.10s. I also think...

These drivers corrected some rendering anomolies in Far Cry for me. X800 Pro VIVO 1GB Ram 3200+ Athlon64 1mbL2Cache ASUS K8V

Wow, in defense of the NVIDIA card, I have to say that although it is not as straight forward as the ATI card, it's advanced architecture is to blame for these glitches. For one, I can't wait until the drivers for the on chip video processor, encoder. My video editing clients will love...

Hi CastleBravo, It says noobie under my name, not stupid. You think I would get rid of my 6800GT? Wrong :D I said I picked up the X800pro and I now have both cards. ;) I would never get rid of an NVIDIA card over an ATI card. For that matter I don't think I would get rid of either card...

When I started playing FarCry, I couldn't wait for the GeForce 6800GT. I read all the benchmarks and card's structures and speed. When I received the 6800gt OC BFG, I reformated my drive installed the 6800GT and the game. I looked nice but I had seen someone playing at the local Computer...

I think you may also want to rethink your Power Supply. Just because it says 550 Watt doesn't mean it is any better than the Vantec 420 power supply. You need close to 25A coming from your 12V rail with everything you have in your box. You need something like a PC Power and Cooling 510...

I think the 6800 is a fictitious card. I haven't seen one yet. I am really excited about getting one because of the alleged video encoding chip which will render like a bat out of hell in Premiere Pro 1.5 with Xplode 4.0. I hope to spot one pretty soon. This is what I call a real paper...

My [H]ardware pet peeve are the enthusiasts that know a lot about everything in thier system except for the Power Supply. They buy a case and "it came with a (no name) 475 watt power supply". When I learned about the importance of power supplies, expecially the 12V and what is required to...

Mad_Pyro, thanks for jumping in. I may not be very knowledgeable on old or discontinued hardware but I am pretty sure filling the slots don't slow the computer. I like to use 2GB of memory in WindowsXP because I turn off my swapfile. This speeds up my computer. (Maybe it is in my head, but...
