    geforce + firegl?

    Thank you very much for all the input! Yes, all of these programs work fine but it is actual rendering that is slower. whats lagging my computer behind? I have a Q6600 and 1GB DDR667. only thing I can think of is my memory not being enough. maybe 2GB DDR800 would fix this problem? or...

    geforce + firegl?

    Was wondering if any of you would know if this would work, if not I'm going to give it a try... Right now I am running a 7800GT which is fine and dandy for games but for rendering / video production ( 3ds max, avid xpress pro, photoshop... ) it doesn't always cut it, especially in 3ds max...

    SLI, or not quite that...

    @ jkresh thanks for the input, I'll do some research on the nvidia forums to see if there are any conflicts that people know of... @ eelw Actually I don't have it yet, I wanted to make sure this would work before ordering one.

    SLI, or not quite that...

    why 3 PCI-E slots?

    I just bought my EVGA 122-CK-NF63-TR LGA mb and noticed that by the specs it has 2 PCI-E 16X slots (for SLI). what exactly is the 3rd PCI-E slot for ( says 1 x PCIe Graphics expansion slot ) I'm a little confused on this... If I am running SLI what good would a 3rd card do me? unless...

    XION Supernova

    Thanks SparkyJJO! Very informative, to be honest I've didn't even see that that wasn't a continuous supply... HUGH difference. and I like the one you got and posted, looks like its a possibility. I'll probably go for the 620w *note, I couldn't find the HX620W or HX520W but upon further...

    XION Supernova

    Yeah, I understand that they are not "reviews" I just couldn't put my tongue, or fingers in this case, on the right word to use.. I have used Corsair myself and do like them! I'll probably go for one this time I just wanted to know if any of you have used these "XION"... looks like...

    XION Supernova

    XION Supernova newegg link Hey there, I'm looking at getting a new new pwr supply for my computer and was intrigued by the price and wattage of the XION Supernova... Newegg had 5 eggs, but I find that this means nothing because "some" of the time the people who write reviews on that site...
