    Possible SLI combinations

    6800GT + 6800 Ultra will probably work if they are from the same manufacurer and you flash the 6800GT to 6800 Ultra or visa versa.

    WTF....Artic Silver voids CPU/MB warranty with Monarch?? PLEASE READ UPDATE!!

    Then would you mind telling us how to apply it correctly, since I plan on using this for the first time sometime next week when my new computer arrives? Up until now whenever I have built computers I've just used the thermal pad supplied because I wasn't going to overclock, I plan to try...

    New Computer

    I've been browsing around a bit for a new motherboard, since I just noticed the price of the one I was going to get went up to $440 and this is just not worth it. I can still get it from elsewhere for ~$340 though. Anyway I've got it down to 3 motherboards. ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe ($342) - I've...

    New Computer

    Hmm, maybe I should go for a non-sli PCI-E NF4 motherboard. But which one? Also I really don't have enough money for a better monitor... hell, I might not even be getting as much money as I thought. My max will probably be like 2,268.20. What does everyone think of me getting some Giel Dual...

    New Computer

    I've too read this, however I've also read that is only with cards not on the nVidia SLI certified cards list, which can be found on the nVidia website. I live in Bunbury WA, about 2 hours drive south of perth. I'm almost forced to ship stuff from over east because of prices. It's only ~$40...

    How did the universe begin???

    All I can say is that it would take more than armegedon to convince me there was a god. In actual fact we have a very good chance of all being wiped out, asteroids, nuclear war, biological war, the sun going supernova, a black hole coming along etc... okay maybe the last ones were a bit "out...

    New Computer

    I want to get SLI because I plan to get another 6800GT later in the year when I have enough money and the 6800GT's have come down in price a little. And what does anyone have against CRT's? So there not thin and they're a little on the heavy side, boohoo. Also did I mention the I plan to...

    How did the universe begin???

    The current theory is the reason that we developed these emotions is for the species to survive, not just the individual. It is quite straight forward to think "The needs of the many outway the needs of the few". This ensures that the species will continue. We do these things because we do...

    New Computer

    Going to build my first computer sometime this month (as soon as the 6800GT PCI-E's come out in AUS), just wanted to see what everyone else thought of it and any suggestons that anyone might have for improving it. I want my budget to be ~AUS$2350 (I'll go no more that $60 up, and even this is a...

    New System

    The prices are in AUS$ however some of the things are still a little overpriced, like the 3200+ and the DVD Burner.

    New System

    I'd say get the 6600GT over the 5900 for a vid card, it's not worth getting a vid card from last generation if you can afford it. Also try and find a Seagate, like jterrell said. As for the DVD Burner go for the Pioneer 108 I have one myself, excellent burner although that price dows seem a bit...
