Hello, I was just beta testing Company of Heroes 2 Beta, my third game... and in the midst of the game... suddenly BOOM... computer shuts down ! I have seen the same behaviour in Company of Heroes 1. So first I thought it might have been a remote attack onto the network card, perhaps a...

Hello, Here is my review of Street Fighter 4. Let's start by saying that I am not using the Windows Live crap. Nor do I yet understand how to unlock the hidden characters ?!? I have seen some of them in action in the benchmark option.

Has anybody else notice that Nvidia has removed all Vista chipset/audio drivers from their website? They dont work properly anyway, they cause popping and clicking galore, often followed by audio related BSOD's in games under Vista on my A8N-SLI Deluxe system.

Now and again, for no apparent reason, my CRT monitor screen shrinks sideways. There will be a "tick" sound (rather like static electricity being discharged, but louder), there will be a very brief flash across the screen, and then it collapses. It seems to be bowed, as well : things are more...

The NV47...

Okay, so, real-world stats... Is there some amazing, stupendous performace gain with PCI-E? I'm talking about two equal cards... not cards that are inexplicably "dumbed down" for the AGP version. Is the PCI-E version of the 6600GT faster (in real-world performance) than the AGP 6600GT? Assuming...

Hi, My GF4 Ti4200 has broken and they want mucho money to fix it (it's just over a year old!). So, what is around at the moment that is a good replacement. I don't want to spend massive amounts of money, but I would like something that is at least as good as a Ti4200. I have an XP1800 processor,...

I have been pretty busy the last few days and some interesting things happened. First of all I investigated possible replacements to get a better dream pc. Here is the short list: 1. Antec 1200 case 2. Scythe zipang cpu cooler, which should be much more quieter than the amd stock...

Just recieved the card - no BIOS/POST corruption so I`m gonna leave positive feedback. PC recognises the card as VGA compatible. Tried to install nvidia drivers but screen went black with cursor in top left corner flashing at about 35% of the install wizard. I have downloaded a Ti4400 BIOS...

I have a TI-4200 AGP card today, but in Half-Life 2 (and other Source games) it's way to slow, and it also lacks DX9 hardware support :-( But as I am very found of my Asus P4PE mainboard I don't want to change that. So if I buy a new video-card it will be a AGP one. And then I don't want it to...

http://tinyurl.com/y3w4uz "R600 is the 积电 80nm craft manufacture, the core area is 428mm2, has 720 million transistors" we already know R600 will have a 512-bit bus.

I was hoping someone could let me know which is a great buy as far as PCI speed is concerned. My little brother doesnt have AGP (he's 18), and getting a new motherboard will have to wait till next year. Basically Im hoping for something that will run Half-Life 2, Far Cry, and Thief 3 on medium...

what's a good "bang for the buck" gaming video card for PC? I don't have to have the latest greatest, it can be an older card, just something that supports 3D graphics and that I'm likely to find for a bargain on eBay. Under $100 ideally, under $50 would be even better. The particular games I'm...

Just seen what looks like a great deal on an FX5800 Ultra about $ 208 delivered checked it out on Tomshardware lands around the 9700 Pro performance. Any reasons not to go for this card ?

For those intending to build the ultimate graphics PCIe desktop system ---either 4-head dual-graphics-card, or SLI ( with dual 6800GT, say ) or Ati's proposed dual-GPU system --- and also wish to use a dual-core CPU, please be very frightened indeed of the power-consumption (and consequent...

Hi again, What is the difference between these two cards? I'm asking because I cannot find any FX5700 PCI Cards in the UK...All I am seeing is either FX5200 PCI or FX5700 AGP. What I really want though, is an FX5700 PCI Card. Does anyone know of any UK suppliers that sell the...

I am a budget gamer on an athlon xp 2800 oced slightly and 512 mb of ram and a geforce 4 mx440 64mb oced to 312/579 and a SB Live! LS 5.1. I'm running Windows 98 and I'm pretty sure my graphics card is the bottleneck for UT2004, Sims 2, etc. I am interested in Doom 3. So, like I said which card...

I think we'll bother the ATI forum with this as well. Might hate me now, but you might thank me later... "Lee Marsh" wrote in message ... We have a response straight from NVIDIA addressing the recent storm...
