    Upgrade advice 5850 and 2560x1440 resolution

    I actually haven't tried that suggestion. I've been using the DVI cable that came with the monitor. It's the version made by Hazro. Any idea if there's a way to overclock this thing to 120 hz? I'm leaning towards the 7950 since I'm a sucker for price/performance ratio. Looking at used cards as...

    Is the Gigabyte the best version of the 7950 to get for overclocking or does the brand not matter?

    ^ Reading reviews on that card now. Which of the two is the better bang for the buck- AMD or Nvidia. I keep thinking $200-300 is the sweet spot for bang for buck especially when overclocking like the old days. Is that still true?

    Looks very promising. Are there any other programs that would be more integrated into the windows shell/UI?

    Program that does Batch/Bulk file renaming?

    Any recommendations on a program that allows you to rename multiple files all at once? Say for instance that you have 20 .jpg picture files and they're all randomly named and you want to rename them using the rule Picnic - 00* so that it would name it from Picnic - 001 to Picnic - 020. I...

    I've checked the display properties and it doesn't register that there's a TV connected. I've checked all fo the connections and they seem to be fine. I even checked the power connector to the garphics card cause it started happening after my friend hooked up his ps2 hard drive to do some...
