    Need advice for new build

    They just came in stock today at my retailer. I choose it because it can clock up to 2,6-2,8 Ghz almost guaranteed on air. Also they are at venice 3000+/3200+ prices but with an extra 512kb cache. (If it can clock past 2,6ghz i will have a VERY cheap FX55/FX57 :D). I am also thinking on a 144...

    Quick Question

    Would it be possible to use a single ATi graphics card in a SLi motherboard? I ask this because I'm having probelms finding a board that supports what I need but some SLi ones do. Stupid question I probably already have the answer but I just want to make sure.

    Video Card Manufacturers

    Video Card Manufacturers

    I have purchased various sapphire cards myself and they have always been very reliable. I think I will go with the sapphire version. I did a little digging and found that they are more or less the same except for the packaging and how the card looks. No real difference in the specs or bundled...

    Hardware worries

    I think i exagerated a bit on the "latest games" i was thinking more around doom 3 and half-life 2 played at 1024x768 or something similar. It has to be a weak upgrade since im on a tight budget of £200 (got the video card already for free). I just want the comp to stop slowing down when it...
