FYI, see:- http://www.nvidia.com/object/IO_24795.html http://www.anandtech.com/cpuchipsets/showdoc.aspx?i=2493 No flipper-board, full x16 PCIe per (dual) video card. Total PCIe channels: 38 AMD, 40 Intel. Very interesting indeed. See Anandtech's analysis.

Upgrade gone terribly wrong story and questions: I recently upgraded my system (running Windows XP OEM with SP2 installed) by swaping out my radeon 9800 for a geforce 6800GT and replacing my CRT with the new style Apple 23 monitor. I'm having two major problems that I haven't been able to...

Hi all, 6800 Ultra, yes, Asus... No. I own a Asus V9999 ultra and had to void my warranty to flash the BIOs to correct a problem Asus won't even acknowledge. There is a problem with the 2D/3D settings in which the core is speed is set to 400 when it should be 425 (same as the 2D setting), this has...

Hi All, I just purchased the HP Blackbird (specs to follow) and need a good TV tuner. Any suggestions? It was suggested by the sales rep that some ATI cards may not be compatible? PROCESSOR a.. Intel® Core2T Extreme Quad-Core 3.0GHz performance enhanced MEMORY a.. 2GB 800 MHz CORSAIR...

I want to congratulate NVIDIA for being the only major company I have ever seen that claims they do not produce anything so - they don't have to support anything. There is NO PLACE I COULD FIND on their website for me to return information to them on problems I had with their 44.03 driver....

After I have my system on for 15 minutes or longer, when I shut down I will get a error message for everything that is in the Task Manager! This did not start until I installed the NVIDIA GeForce FX 5700 Ultra video card. Doe's anyone have any suggestions?

Hi Does anyone else have any problems running the new unreal on a 7900 GTX card? I brought a new card about 3 months ago - its great in all my other games but on unreal I get the odd judder when in the middle of a firefight. When moving around the map normally I get a nice smooth play. I'm...

I have been doing some reading regarding this card. It generally recieves poor reviews. I am looking at replacing an ATI Radeon (the original), I think Radeon 7000 or 7200 chip with 32 meg memory. I would have to believe the fx5200 with 128 meg of memory would be a better than what I have. I...

Hi, I've recently bought Galaxy Geforce 6600 128MB AGP and I can't make it work correctly. In 3d games there're some weird effects like green/red triangles or something as if there'd be a problem in rendering. After a while it usually get worse and as an effect game is unplayable. my computer...

Driver upgrades on my ATI AIW just hosed up my system again (Dell desktop, XP SP2). Neither Dell nor ATI can figure this out. Situation: I need to be able to play newer games. New Tomb Raider shows glass/transparent floors and walls with the old drivers. Even an older game like GTA San Andreas...

What is the difference between these two posts? This one is per your suggestion Jez - I don't see any difference - except in this body text and of course the minor subject change. (But nothing look different in the general layout) When I've posted this I'll be able to see if the Internet treats...

Hello! Has anyone experienced this or know why this happens? I recently installed a new XFX NVIDIA GeForce 6800 (128 MB; AGP; BIOS v5.40.02.12.08). My computer's refurbished ASUS K8V SE Deluxe (VIA K8T800 Socket 754 ATX; VIA VT8237 South Bridge; revision 2; 1007 Firmware) will not boot up (not...

I am assisting a client in purchasing a new PC. Since this person is not a PC geek, I think a ready made Dell would be a good deal. The requirements are that it be able to run the normal day to day MS office programs, photo manipulation and printing, and play games like The Sims. They would...

Hi, Like a lot of people out there who ordered the XFX 7900GTX XXX, i have been waiting 2 months for my card to arrive. I placed orders with several companies but none have been able to provide me with the card. As a stop gap i purchased the XFX 7900GTX Extreme card and its OK but I find it a bit...

Okay, So I just purchased one of these bad boys. I was wandering down the threads here and maybe figured out that with NVidia's MXM form factor, I could replace the 8400M GS with the 8600M GS. I might wonder about the "memory interface" being only 64-bits for the 8400M GS and 128-bits for the...
