    HDTV FOR MONITOR???

    yeah i hook up my computer to my 46 inch samsung and it is something, but like said above it can ba alittle hard to see, Mine wasnt really blurry it was just too small for me to read unless I was sitting right up on it. So if you eyes suck alittle bit like mine you might try 720 instead of 1080...

    Some ATI Crossfire AMD System Overclock Suggestions.

    I would think your gpu could be clocked alittle higher and Im sure your cpu can. I am running a gigabyte mobo or I would give you a step by step. I have my 955be running at 3.8 on stock cooler and my intergrated hd4200 clocked at 900mhz.

    God of War 3

    Picked mine up at midnight last night with pandora's box and I think this might be my favorite console game of the ps3/xbox360 era. Anyone else getting down on this. The opening act is freaking amazing.

    Fedora 12 on my new computer

    Like I said, im am temporarily using onboard graphics, which is an ATI hd4200 and I have it set in the BIOS to allocate 512Mb of Ram to it and it is overclocked to 900mhz. It is definately more than enough to run Fedora if it is compatible. I dunno maybe I will just use ubuntu for a while. I...

    Fedora 12 on my new computer

    Ive also got my CPU, RAM, and internal GPU overclocked. Wouldnt think that would cause any issues but I am still fairly new to Linux and this is the first time I have installed on a self built machine. I am not too upset at running ubuntu. I am actually thinking about installing compiz fusion...

    Fedora 12 on my new computer

    I have very much enjoyed running fedora as a secondary OS on my laptop. I had it installed on an external harddrive and whenever I wanted to run fedora I would boot accordingly. I liked fedora so much that i had planned on running it as my main OS in my new desktop. Problem is I cant get it to...

    How do I overclock these?

    Other than through AMD overdrive I am not sure. It has limits to what you can do but it seems you can get good little performance increases out of both very easily. I wouldn't personally overclock the cpu with overdrive unless you have an unlocked multiplier which i dont think your cpu does. But...

    need advice for gaming pc

    As far as the case goes, I just picked up a xion axp600 and I like it. Needs a couple more fans than it comes with but overall it is a great case for the money. Cable management is great, has 4 hot swappable sata bays, and has no problem with space for big cpu coolers and long video cards...

    Looking for a new desktop - Need Advice/Recommendations

    I just sold my friend my old gen 2 xps. That dinosaur is running a 3 ghz p4 and after a fresh install of xp it is running surprisingly well. I was able to have utorrent, windows media player, starcraft, and firefox running multiple pages and no sweat at all. Makes me alittle sad I got rid of it...

    I feel cheated as a PC Gamer! Please Read

    I too am pretty upset about it. My old dell xps quit playing games up to my standards a few years ago and not having the money to spring for a new computer I opted for a ps3. While I like the system overall the gaming could never be the same, you all know this. I recently took a piece of my tax...
