    Weird RAM Problem? G.Skill F3-12800CL9D-4GBRL

    Where do you see that the XMP profile is enabled? If I'm reading this correctly my memory is running @ a single channel frequency of 666 MHz or 1333 MHz for dual channel. So it's not going at the XMP profile (or what this is rated for) which shows it should be running @ 800 channel freq MHz or...

    Which Video Card to Keep?

    Then if I shouldn't rely on those benchmarks (no offense iluv2fly) bottom line becomes if it's worth it to return either. I keep hearing bad things about Pny but this card has a 3 year warranty + 2 years if I register online with them just no OCing which doesn't seem to be too bad sicne I don't...

    Which Video Card to Keep?

    I went a little crazy after getting my Dell order delayed and eventually canceled and tried to buy a bunch of 8800 GT's. I ended up getting two shipped on the same day. I'm trying to figure out which one would be better for my money in the long run. I'm not a absolutely serious gamer but I...
