    Abit NV7m + SoftBIOS III

    I have just ordered a Abit NV7m to use as a TV/DVD/DivX puter. I'm not really intending to OC or mod it. I am still curious about the possibilities though... The manual says BIOS have no options to set FSB (other than 100/133) but what about SoftBIOS III. I didnt even consider it before I...

    8500 + dual monitors = not working

    I say try the new drivers. It worked for my "powermagic 8500" card. Even if you know how to do it, it didnt work with the "Supported" 3276 drivers. Or the 3286. In under "displays" tab only the first monitor was enabled. All the others showed a crossed over cable. And the "power signs" were...

    8500 + dual monitors = not working

    I had the same problem. The new "Unofficial" drivers on ATI's driverpage solves it.

    Modding Radeon 8500?

    How do you count FPS during a game?

    In quake use "timedemo" to get an average FPS. in the console type "/timedemo 1" then run a demo and check the console for the avg. FPS. Some demos are harder on the hardware the others, if you run the standard "DEMO001" or "DEMO002" you would get a higher FPS then if you run any of the intense...

    Anyone reviewing Leadtek Ti200 128Mb??

    The 128Mb version will cost allmost exactly as much as the 64Mb version does right now, when it arrives here in Europe. The price for 64Mb cards will prob. drop then... You are probably right about the overclocking capabilities and the overkill with 128Mb cards. I just want to see some reviews...

    Umm, ok, I was allmost correct then. The point was the earlier post by powerVR stating: ATI Rage Fury MAXX ATI Radeon PowerVR Kyro II PowerVR Kyro Series3? Interesting, so this mean Sierra have got a Kyro III and have tested it with this game. If the Kyro III has been sent out to developers...

    KYRO III probably out in Q1 2002. What are its known specs?

    For Kyro III information www.paraknowya.com is a good start. Nothing new right now though... There was some kind of confusion about PowerVR series 3 and Kyro III. From what I remember: PowerVR series 2 == Kyro (1) PowerVR series 3 == Kyro II If I remember wrong I will probably get corrected...
