Been running SLI 770s Lightings since release in June last year and over the xmas period one of my lightnings started to artifact
I returned it to the store but they no longer stock it so they have given me a full refund instead
When I got my Lightnings they cost £360 each and they have...
ive had my OCZ Vertex 2 for around 3 weeks but i got a new motherboard so i am about to reinstall windows 7
i was orginally going to use HDD Erase 3.3 to wipe the drive but ive heard that might not be nescessay as quick formatting the drive from windows 7 will do the same thing
is this...
Finally saved up enough for an 120GB SSD but after doing more research im not sure if i should get a SF-1200 or C300 based SSD now
or wait for intels latest G3 SSDs as 160GB would be perfect and will allow me to dual boot and still install some games on my SSD and the intel controller is likely...
something blew a fuse in my house and it seems it took out my 1TB Caviar blue (other drives and components survived)
i removed the faulty drive and it had that "burning" smell
so i took off the pcb to get a closer look at it and i noticed that the connections near a chip (Smooth L7251)...
mainly use it for gaming
i do encode regularly x264 and xvid for my ps3 and psp but normally i leave it overnight so time to encode is not really an issue
currently have a Q6600 @ 3.6 and im tempted to get a i7 920 D0 and clocking it to 4Ghz
i can sell my old cpu mobo, ram to my dad and the money from that should cover the x58 mobo and ddr3 all i will need to do is pay for the cpu
think it is worth the upgrade
i know alot of people will...
already used the Hitachi tool to increase AAM to the maximum
before i did it was 16.5ms
but nm now i am going to keep the drive ive discovered 3-4ms should make that much difference
i just bought a WD 320GB AAKS SATA drive and im disappointed with the access time
the drive will be used for game install only and will be partitioned right down the middle with my favourite & new games on the first partiton and old/rarely played games & demos on the second
think with...

anyway ive decided to wait till summer 09 if my Q6600 is starting to show its age then i will probably get an i7
if its still going strong will probably hold on till the 32nm refresh
i need to stop being so...
My Q6600 is a good chip has a vid of 1.237 and does 3.6 @ 1.4v i can sell it for around £100 ($157) and the Q9650 is £361 ($568) brand new
