I tried to use the custom drivers in order to use 2 different branded cards and it worked but my framerate was exactly the same as with 1 card just making a higher res available, but the same framerate as using 1 card. It was weird. I gave up.

Its more expensive than it seems, you need to add 150 to the price for the panel, and then additional modules for connectivity.

I dont blame anyone who is willing to pay the asking price. I spent most of my early life unable to afford ANY computer parts and everything I had were hand me downs from friends. I got my first sound blaster in 94 for christmas which was a huge deal for me and ran that 386DX-25 all the way until …

are we up to 21 cases so far? Its all melting down, the horror. The number of cases isn't really the point.....It's that nVidia knowingly let it happen. Acceptable losses. This is their flagship product, they knew it was defective, poorly designed and just didn't care. One more piece to the puzzle …

Diablo 1 is a very Sword & Sorcery game that could very well have been taking place in Conan's Hyboria.. Then Diablo II turns the setting into basically Forgotten Realms and by Diablo III it has evolved into Azeroth. Sad really. There is a small problem though: in Diablo 1 there is an archbishop …

I'm trying out The Bard's Tale Trilogy remaster. So far I'm really digging the character creation. I'm kind of excited about this one. I think it might be right up my alley (Wiz6ish?). I love the built-in manual. It's very comprehensive! I have not started playing, but rolling several characters …

The new Fermi cards that run at 68c under a full load. You can say Fermi with a better cooling solution, but that hardly means anything.

Its fun to watch all the AMD fans boys melt down every release. I was just having a bit of fun with all of the outrageous and non scientific justification posts on here. Buy what you like, I am 100% happy with my 4090, because I buy the best. I don't need to justify my purchase based on someone …

Yes Nvidia must recall over a handful of cases some of which no doubt was people trying to recreate it. The Rosy AMD outlook will continue to wilt as launch day approaches. AMD lost this round.

I think im going to sit back and see where this all goes, its pretty clear at this point that a redesign of the connector is required, its too late for the already released cards but later revisions I expect to have a redesigned connector. Good thing to note is that some AIBs were aware of this and …

Not advisable to go over a 5900 Ultra for 98. Your going to lose graphical effects.

I remember thinking the final boss battle in Anachronox was really cool because it was based off of a mini game you played throughout the campaign. I thought it was a very neat touch.

My overkill XP machine isn't as beefy as yours, an X5690 w/ a 780ti. I've yet to anything I can't run maxed out from the era you would want to use XP for. Anything else is gravy.
