If a set of headphones connects via USB, I guess there isn't even a point in getting a soundcard? As it probably uses the onboard audio anyway?
So if I wanted a simple setup, I could use onboard audio and a decent set of USB headphones and spend around 100.. just for gaming.
But if I...
what is the point of diminishing returns for computer gaming audio?
Is there really enough of a difference in spending $400.. $250 for the Stennheiser PC360s and a $150 sound card,
vs. $150 for a $50 soundcard and a $100 set of Logitech headphones?
For BF3 and soon SWTOR.
Yeah I was reading up on that just now. According to the AMD Eyefinity website:
"Active dongles use true DisplayPort signaling to 'actively' translate and re-transmit the signals as the required outputs. Because they use the true DisplayPort signaling, they are considered a DisplayPort...
Ok yeah and that's $100. I guess I just need one since the 6950 would have two standard DVI outs.. I would need one to convert the displayport to create the three outs I need. Correct?
Well. the price of 1 6950 or 2 6850s is right about the same. So I'm thinking one 6950 would be better just for case real estate.. then I don't have to worry about crossfire support in games either I guess.
What's the verdict on the cpu?
Chinoman says I need to upgrade but happy medium says...
I'm really pumped about a few games coming out later this year.

I've got a little extra cash and would like to pimp up my video setup.

Here is my issue.
I've had MP3's on my computer over 10 years.
Since before all the great ID3 tagging.
having about 30k MP3s makes it extremely cumbersome to try and update and correct all ID3 tags for my library so they are finally displayed correctly in player apps
Including live...
I have an older desktop machine I'm trying to modify for a start HTPC. Its the PC in the stats of my signature:
Epox EP-9NPA3 Ultra
Nvidia Geforce 7600.
The problem I have is that the Geforce only had a DVI output and the 1080p playback was choppy..(maybe because of the Athlon 3500+ as...
I just got back from holiday travelling and my ASUS WL-520GU seems to have completely crashed. Wireless is down and my primary desktop(wired) can't even acces 192.168.1.1....
Lights are working... I held the EZSetup button in the back for over the three seconds and the power LED never starts...
And you didn't have to force a refresh or resolution? I haven't even played once.. fresh install off CD.. to 1.4 to 1.5. and not able to stay on. like I said usually it happens at account sign in. but when I tried to force it it seemed to work for about an additional few seconds.
Ok so after more investigation. it does seem that 1.5 patch fixed the Windows 7 issues.. my issue is with widescreen, which 1.5 was supposed to fix as well. I tried forcing a higher resolution and actually made it from account sign in to the main screen for about 5 seconds before crash back to...
I decided to dust off my BF2 and see if anyone was playing online.. sure enough alot of people were still playing what I call the best online FPS of modern combat.. and possibly any combat.. I have ever played.
so I reinstalled, upgraded to 1.4 then to 1.5.
I have windows 7 and a widescreen...
This may be an extremely noob question, but I have been looking over the internet and can't find the answer I am looking for so was hoping someone in the AT forum could help. Windows 7 picture importing from a camera seems to have taken a large step backwards in an effort to automate and I...
I just purchase a new HDD and external HDD for backup.
I don't necessarily want to make a mirror image of my new HDD because sometimes I like to just do a complete reformat and start fresh. What I would like to do though is have My Pictures, My Music, Downloads, etc(any folders I select) to be...
