    HD2900XT Driverheaven Review

    I bought a x1900xt 512mb the first week, man they did that card right.. I didnt mind the huge price, could they really have missed it by so far this time? Besides drivers that need revising, has anyone benched this on an x2 instead of an intel cpu? Would it surprise you if that made a...

    HARDOCP 2900xt Review! (a proper review)

    i'd bet money drivers make this whole weird situation look a LOT better in a month or so.. higher FPS at 1920 vs 1600x1200?...

    Pondering a purchase

    that price is more than fair.. considering a lot of us paid up to $300-$350 not so long ago for that same x2-3800.. what price is good to you for the mobo? Actually, based on the extremely low $ you are willing to spend on a cpu, I'd say you'd probably want to be really specific on how much...
