Its shocking how different & screwed up the handling of the cars are. It takes SOOO long to get the fast cars right up to speed, the handling is completely different & fake. A mercedes #### box does better & faster cornering than the Ferrari enzo from 1st game.

In the tech specs it says the (h) is 3.22cm - 3.82cm. Is 3.22 at the front end & 3.82 at the back end?

Was looking at the new Dell 30" & wondering if this part of the stand can detach itself from the base? For easy storage when mobile. If anyone has one or other older 30" models & knows that would be appreciated. Also is it easy to detach the top part that connects to the center back of the...

Not really, but my ears sometimes ring a bit after for a small while & id like to know how loud the handfull of songs I listen to are. The kid safe earphones which are 85dB sound awful, mine are meant to be 108db according to the specs. But the volume on most songs is under half. Soundtracks are...

Just wondering if anyone has tested there earphones with a cheap dB reader? And could recommend one? They say up to 85dB is tolerable for a few hours a day. But I dunno how loud mine are. Plus its different for all songs.

can you set what resolution & graphic details you want like crysis 1? It still must look sexy maxed out?

Any game I play on my 30" looks fantastic. You really never get use to the insane detail. I just played some old HL2 at 2560x1600, so enjoyable. I could never enjoy it at a measly 1080p. Playing css at this res is almost like cheating. You can see so much detail & its easier to aim in the...

exit now, im in the same boat. looking at a xps15 to run my 30" I'm just getting a mini DP to dual link DVI adapter. Too bad i brought a standard displayport adaptor. Just found out this laptop is mini DP only. :'(

I noticed this card has 3 dual link DVI connections. Does that mean I can run 3 seperate monitors for desktop work? I game only on the primary monitor.

Seems to only happen on secondary monitor which is connected by vga.

My anti virus is always running, could be a culprit? The images are a few dozen MB & RAM usage is never maxed out. Tends to happen more when other windows are open i noticed.

yeah, ram was updated to faster more capacity, still lagged sometimes with old ram. must be hd. i would have thought hard drive wouldn't be needed? that it does it all in memory. Until you save your work, then it uses hard drive?

Do FPS games naturally run laggy/ jerky & stutter when playing in windowed mode even with high fps?

So can i drop a 6990 into my motherboard which has pci-e (would i need additional things?) or do you mean it would have to draw its power from a separate 6 or 8 pin connector iirc?

I want to get a radeon 6990 in the coming weeks, so time for psu upgrade. Was looking at a antec true power 750W. But not sure if its the right one? Dont know too much about the connections & stuff. Or if these two psus will do? Antec earthwatts 650 or antec high current 620?
