newls1 Posted June 17, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 17, 2009 Welcome new mod So Mr. Overclocker, How can I get passed 2.7mhz stable? My old chip was easy to reach 3.2, and this new(er) chip has me baffled still benchmarks higher then the old chip tho be more specific. What is the CPU? 2.7Mhz is easy to go further with, you mean 2.7GHz . Post up your specs, and BIOS pics and we can get that sucker jammin.

newls1 Posted June 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 (edited) give me an unbiased answer as to which one of these video cards will outperform the other. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814102801 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814130433 those 2 cards are nearly IDENTICAL in performance. Both are great cards. here ( http://www.hardocp.com/article.html?art=MT...GVudGh1c2lhc3Q= ) If frequent driver updates is something you like, then go Nvidia. It seems they have new beta drivers out every other day! ATi however does do a WHQL driver once EVERY MONTH. So, it is totally up to you. Sometimes it comes down to which games you play. Some games might performance 10-15% faster on a certain GPU, then the other. Also, keep in mind, if you go with Nvidia all there GF8/9/GTS/GTX series cards also accelerate Physx built into the GPU. So you really get 2 cards within one. Physx games like MIRRORS EDGE is the fucking shit! Best game ever! Also UT3 with physx enabled is ungodly awesome.

If so, get the Nvidia GTX260/275 (if you can stretch another $75 bones) and re-play the game. COMPLETELY DIFFERENT. Also, get fear2, another great ass game.

Stephen Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 since PCI is not good for graphics cards what is? im assuming its because of the bit "width" of the slots. Quote you can cook bacon shirtless if you're not a pussy...lol not hatin, but am i wrong here it looks as if the amp is not grounded its hooked directly to the battery. it that the way it should be.

Aaron813 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Hey Seth let me know what you think about my rig its right here.

newls1 Posted June 18, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 since PCI is not good for graphics cards what is? im assuming its because of the bit "width" of the slots. PCI was a "bus" that started back in the 16bit days when the 486 dx4 was JUST starting to roll out. It was designed (at that time) to create a high speed interconnect for all types of add-in-cards. Was very good for quite a few years. Back in 1996 (I THINK) AGP came out and that was for 1 thing, and 1 thing only.....Graphics cards, and NOTHING ELSE. Accelerated Graphics Port lasted to around the 2004, then PCI"e" debuted, and is what we use today. We will all come to find out that PCI"e" will be the most common port (if not the only port) on all motherboard soon. They are offered in several speeds, all of which are backward compatable with each other. PCIe 1x/4x/8x/16x. You can plug a 1x card into a 4x slot, a 8x card into a 16x slot, see what im saying? Also, USB 3.0 is coming out at the end of this year (or should be at least) so.......the future looks awesome for some real speed! Core i7 bloomfield CPU's, quad SLi, 12GB DDR2166ram @ 1.6v.....holy shit, PC porn Quote I love my staffie So anti FACEBOOK it isn't even funny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
