    GTX570 vs HD6970

    If you think that's bad, I'm still on a dreaded 9600 Agena 4GB 667 DDR2 RAM and it's stock sadly. Then again, no point in trying to OC when the best I heard most getting was 2.5/2.6 from 2.3 no thanks. So how badly is that thing; 9600 at stock, holding back a 4890? When I had the 470...

    GTX 460 q

    lol. I probably needed to make it more clear on my part. What I meant was, he likes the smaller sizes from non reference models. Maybe he didn't look through the whole inventory, but to buy an OC just to underclock it is kinda.... what's the point lol. If size is a factor, to which I'm sure...

    NEC 30" in person...

    Yeah, it is more of an artificial image enhancement. As long as it somehow doesn't make anything worse, guess there's no harm. And I guess it's not a bad idea to save a few watts on power lol.

    GTX 460 q

    Maybe he/she wants to get it due to size, as it may be smaller than launch versions and the only one that's smaller is that non-standard launch model. They did mention the size appeals to them. But it does seem like a bit of extra, possibly, unnecessary work though if size is all that matters...

    Crysis 2 Graphics - Are we too soon to hate ? Cryengine 3 shots within

    Unless they did this on purpose, in dumbing the graphical detail down, to lessen requirements to run the game, due to mass complaints about the requirements of the its predecessor. But I do agree. If that's the real detailing we'll get... seems pretty sub-par for 2011

    NEC 30" in person...

    Now these "cheap"; in price not necessarily quality that they'll break in a week or two, monitors being TN panels, will an LED backlighting system do much or is it overkill and moot on TV panel?. I know they'll be a benefit perhaps of power savings, but I'm just wondering about Image Quality...

    NEC 30" in person...

    Alright. I'll have to ask my supervisor tomorrow. I get a 30% or up to 30% I should say discount with Dell so I wonder what percentage off bracket I'll fall into with that. I wonder how it'll compare to that price, if less then... well it's obvious lol, go with what saves more. Is that the...

    NEC 30" in person...

    Was that for me or someone else? I was just wondering if using a TV is still bad since computer monitors now use the same scaling system. I can do it, I've worked with 2560x1600 monitors before, I just like to chill 3 feet back sometimes and most pages text is too small on 1920x1200 on my 24...

    NEC 30" in person...

    Someone mentioned TV's and rather than create a new thread to ask my question to be told I could have included it in something else and get a bad mark by some MOD/Admin...., I'll ask here. If one is; me, fine with the 1080/1200P limitation and want a new monitor and notice most monitors all do...

    GPU and Motherboard Help

    The thing is, the only game I have now that'll benefit from the 2GB of vRAM is Oblivion. I run the 4096x4096 Texture Packs for all NPC's and your PC and have Qarl's Texture Pack and all this that basically takes the stock 1024x1024 Bethesda made and makes everything 4096x4096, Oblivion takes up...

    GPU and Motherboard Help

    Thanks. Yeah, that's what most tell me. I got that for encoding/editing work. I do that a lot too and I figure the small frame drop/hit is a necessary "evil" for a bit better with h264 encoding. **EDIT** I'm coming from a 9600 Agena first release so I'm sure I may cry a bit, or maybe not...

    Hey all, I'm new here. Well new as in joined the forums now but been reading Anand for years OOPS. Pardon my laziness there lol. I used to always be a AMD fanboy but not really a fanboy but pseudo I guess since I pretty much always had AMD CPU's and ATi cards on ATi based chipsets. I used...
