Vista Randomly Locks Up

Turned off sleep mode on monitor and left the pc on all night and it didn't lock up. Weird issue of my new pc taking 52 seconds a frame on the exact same F@H WU that my s939 X2 4800+ (@2.71Ghz) was doing in 22 seconds a frame for that WU. When I got up in the morning I saw my pc was alive and...

Vista Randomly Locks Up

That's what I'm starting to think, I'll try to change the Vista settings to not power down my monitor and see if I have success with that. It's a pain right now because I have one monitor and 2 pc's, I'm waiting on a second monitor cable from Newegg to make it a little easier lol.

Vista Randomly Locks Up

As much as we all love to argue about personal preference, I don't have the patience for that now so I'll take a rain check lol. Well after 11 hours of Memtest without any errors, I booted up Vista, disabled nV raid in startup, dl'ed new Silicon Image SATA drivers and rebooted. Ran some...

BFG 8800 GTX OC vs. Diamond HD 2900 XT 1 GB mini-review

Well I'm probably going to end up with the green team again, but I'm going to get an evga 8800Ultra Superclocked in about a month and liquid cool it. Was hoping the HD2900xt would have been a better bang for the buck but I always use full AA/AF settings on my games so seeing the problems that...

BFG 8800 GTX OC vs. Diamond HD 2900 XT 1 GB mini-review

Thanks for all your hard work n7! I've been happy with my evga 7950GT KO Superclocked cards in SLi cooled by Thermalright HR-03's (676/1602 max clocks), but my new system will either be 8800 or 2900 based X2 6000+ rig, still haven't decided that part lol. Now if you were to liquid cool both...

New 24-inch Viewsonic VX2435wm is a P-MVA panel

Well reviews are starting to pop up, and it seems it has ghosting issues according to one review. http://www.3dgameman.com/content/view/8156/103/ Now it looks like the 24" for me is the BenQ FP241W, has the HDMI input and great reviews from all over. The NEC LCD2470WNX looks like a great 24"...

New 24-inch Viewsonic VX2435wm is a P-MVA panel

I have a ViewSonic VX922 and I like it, but looking at going to the VX2435wm because I want a 24" widescreen lcd for the new rig I'm building, partially because of the HDMI inputs and the fact that I'll probably be picking up Radeon HD2900XTX's when available. Not sure if this is the best...

X2 4800+ @2.8Ghz but now getting errors

"FATAL ERROR: Rounding was 0.498004012, expected less than 0.4" was the error after applying the settings above @3Ghz. My pc is air cooled, I just installed my Ultra 120 this weekend and retired my old XP-120. I run a total of 10 fans in my case so it has plenty of air movement. It never runs 24...

X2 4800+ @2.8Ghz but now getting errors

1.5v cpu 3.0v ram(max within warranty). Well it's same Toledo core, revision, stepping, model, etc as your opty, as far as that CCBBE whatever I have no clue lol. Max stable I can get her right now is 2.82 with memclock at 183 3-3-3-6 2T timings. Anything faster seems to be a wash, unless I just...

X2 4800+ @2.8Ghz but now getting errors

Trying to get to 3Ghz, can get there but absolutely no stability even with the ram at 166. 12 x 250= 3Ghz ram=200 but instant errors with Orthos/Prime95. It's too bad, temps aren't even an issue.
