    soundblaster Z microphone will only work once

    hi, ive owned this soundblaster Z for some months now but after i came back from a lan party the mic input kept acting up. it does not record my voice but shows 50% peek level input which sounds like terrible noise. almost like a feedback loop that keeps enhancing its own level. to get the...

    capturing gameplay without cpu load

    yup, got a 3570k. according to intel that thing supports quicksync. but installing the hdxyz driver is problematic. i tried the versions: 15.28.18.3223 15.22.54.64.2622 both say: the computer does not meet the minimal requirements for installing the software. what the hell?

    battlefield 3, 6870 to slow with new monitor

    vsync on looks like the key factor i was missing. bf3 plays very well on medium now, will have to test some more though. @Stuka87: thx, i was under the impression that vsync is bad for frames...always turned it off :(

    battlefield 3, 6870 to slow with new monitor

    i dont know how accurate the bf3 ingame fps counter is, only updates every ~2 seconds. i dont want 100fps, but i know that if the ingame bf3 counter says "100" it feels smooth... now with the 6870 the enemy comes..game skips a few frames...i lie on the ground. im already playing at low graphic...

    battlefield 3, 6870 to slow with new monitor

    hi, i was very happy with my 6870 for quite a while. today my monitor died, it was a older hyundai 19" which i used @1280x1024. the new monitor prefers 1920x1080 which brings the game down to around 60-100fps while running and playing a little bit (few enemys) it really feels sluggish...

    Upgrade question, battlefield 3

    Hi, im currently running a Q9400@3.3Ghz with a HD6870, still got a older 19" tft from hyundai so im running at a pretty low resolution 1280/1024. Bf3 is set to "low" in the graphics options. on a 32player map the system goes below 30fps sometimes, which makes it quite unplayable...

    ts3, weird mic sounds

    ts3 = teamspeak 3 the weird sound happens with me or without me talking. since ts3 works without the extension without problems i dont think that theres a gain change.
