when buying your new rig, be sure that the video card is 256mb and is running on a 256bit chip. The difference is about 200 bucks in terms of the cards and the performance is a huge difference. if you are a gamer, i would suggest getting high performance ram from Crucial, OCZ, or Corsair. i...

CS:Source surprisingly at the highest possible settings runs and highest possible res which is 1240x1078 or something like that gives me 91.7fps avg. with my eVGA6800gt OC'd to 375/1000

300W will not absolutely not can not carry that system. i have a 350W running my system which is about the same as yours, and i can not run my 6800 GT vid card with stability. I would suggest a minimum of 480W to give you enough power to spare. I would suggest a Thermaltake 480W PSU. The...

you might want to think about some custom case modding. Do a standard case with a side window but do a metal grill decal of Hello Kitty or something. have the case colored a pastel green as that is pretty neutral and not too girly. outfit the inside with cool cathode green light and maybe a...

so apparently the card i have is DOA, so im sending the entire system back for a full refund, and decided to take some of your suggestions. take a look at the new computer im planning to get which only costs 150 bucks more. CAS: X-BLADE Mid-Tower 450W W/ WINDOW & LCD Temperature Display...

Looking for CD rom bootable eVGA BIOS, and help would be appreciated.

i got the entire system from cyberpowersystem.com i got the mega special I deal. nothing was upgaded except the vid card. i also have a d-link dwl-520 wireless aircard.

everything initially worked fine until i started up counter-strike source. as soon as it was about to load the screen went crazy and problems have persisted since then. This is after multiply formats and uninstalling/reinstalling drivers. is my card DOA? works fine until i reboot.
