    A8N32-sli Deluxe and XP x64

    Sweet so I just pulled mine out of the box and am about to start my build. Do I need to do anything before I install windows? MOBO Bios update or anything? Been a long time since I did a build. Not sure where to start.

    Do I get Vista

    A few things to think about as well for running vista. Get the ultimate edition. It will have media center as well as 64 bit support. If you are gonna run a beta wait till later this month when the Feb CTP is released. Or wait till beta 2 is released in the next couple months. These are...

    A8N32-sli Deluxe and XP x64

    So you have enabled it at the Bios level, and also at the advanced settings level in the display properties? There is a section somewhere in the display settings that allows to enable multi GPU rendering. I saw it somewhere on the asus forums. Also the forceware drivers for 64bit say they...

    A8N32-sli Deluxe and XP x64

    Hey all, Saw someone post that they had issues with SLI in Windows xp 64bit. I did not see any response to the post so I am wondering if anyone has gotten it working? I am putting my box together today and want to be sure what OS I should be running to take advantage of the SLI? Thanks...

    Memory Settings on the A8N32 SLI Deluxe

    Hey all, Just got my system and am about to start building. I got the A8N32-Sli Deluxe and with it I got a 2GB OCZ EB Platinum PC 4000 (DDR 500) dual channel kit. I am just wondering if there is anything I need to do for the RAM to function at it's rated speed? Do I need to change any of the...

    Looking For current most FUTURE PROOF Upgrade

    Thanks for all the input guys! The 7800 GX's had already shipped I found out so not much of a debate anymore. One thing I really liked is the idea. I can probably sell both of them in the near future if the G71 comes out. That should cover atleast 1 aG71 and then I can always spring for another...

    Good TV card for Media Center?

    I am trying to find a good TV card for my box that will work with media center. Hopefully one that will work with Vista Media Center when it ships. I have no experience with tv cards and appreciate any input. Thanks, James

    Has anyone seen a Samsung 204B in a Brick-and-Mortar store?

    So is the 204b better than the 214T? The 214T is 21.3 inch, 8ms response and 1600x1200 native. I can find it for about 689. Just trying to get some good input on wich one to buy. I have about 7-800 to spend on it.

    Looking For current most FUTURE PROOF Upgrade

    Honestly as long as it runs Quake 4 and hopefully ut2k7 well then I will be happy. I think I will just go with my evga 7800 w/256 gtx KO's in SLI. I really am not a benchmark hound. I just want my games to play well at 1600x1200. I don't play fear and figure that atleast going with an nvidia...

    Looking For current most FUTURE PROOF Upgrade

    Putting down the cash on a 21 inch LCD with 8ms response and 1600x1200 native. So I really want to get the cards I am going to use for awhile. I don't want to have to think about any other cards for atleast a year. So I want whatever is faster now. Are the x1900xtx's in crossfire performing well?
