ATI wins in directx9 games....

I currently have a Biostar NF4UL-A9 (Nforce4 Ultra) mainboard. My Athlon64 3800+ should be arriving next week. I was over at Newegg looking at other S939 mainboards as most user I have found that have the Biostar NF4UL-A9 say that the board either died after a few weeks, or had other problems...

9700pro@9800pro@9800@9800XT buy 1, get 4 :-)

Since Ati has not been able to supply enough spec-speed R580 cores for the X1900GT to satisfy current demand, they are quietly dropping the core clock spec from 575MHz to 512MHz and trying to compensate by increasing the memory speed. The 'derated' product will STILL CARRY THE SAME PRODUCT NUMBER,...

I posted here recently about a problem I was having: on my new MSI RS480M2-IL motherboard (based on the ATI Xpress 200 chipset), my new MSI NX6600-TD256E (GeForce 6600) video card is hanging after a few minutes of playing a 3D game. I contacted MSI tech support about the problem, and this was their...

Hmmm, interesting. My 6600GT's temps never exceed 63 degrees during gaming (FEAR demo, BF2 etc.), but as I was OCing I tested ATITool to look for artifacts and for some reason that simple hairy rolling box made temps go up to 72 degrees. Hmmm? Does ATITool somehow use the GPU more efficiently than...

ATI_NVIDIA price vs Performace whats better 6800 GT or X800 Pro ? I allways bought my cards this way, thats why i have a 9600 Pro at the moment. From what i read the 6800GT is a more powerfull card and cheaper is this correct, though you may have to buy a bigger PSU, me only got a 350 Watt at the...

Has anyone seen figures on how much loss of signal strength (attenuation) is allowed for a DVI connection, for example between an X800 RADEON video card and an LCD monitor? I'm looking for the "loss budget", or total accumulated signal loss that is allowed between the video card and the...

These drivers will crash EQ2 and the washed out video fix people talk about is false. You MUST fix the video every time you reboot the system. This version and the beta that was release and both VERY poor drivers. Half to blame goes to microsoft for certif.. this crappy release. They state...

I read the FAQ and it states that if you have WMP11 in Vista installed then it would use the audio codec from that for the 3D Vision Player when playing a DVD. It doesn't though and the audio coded selection box is non-selectable. I then installed PowerDVD10 demo and the Nvidia Payer sees their...

Came across a very interesting subject -- Efficient 3D Audio Processing on the GPU. It's available at http://www-sop.inria.fr/reves/projects/GPUAudio/ What interest about it is the ingenuity of the project, in tapping into the enormous power of the GPU -- even the low-end videocards based on...
