    Geforce 9800 GTX: Picture and specs

    Where are the GT200 specs.? Seems a lot of gamers are skipping the 9 series anyway because they want something that will compete with the R700... Which isn't an 8 series refresh..

    How can some people be so ignorant

    Up in Colorado (especially right now since we've received over 25 feet of snow) bald tires is a huge no-no. But, to get good tires, you have to throw dime into your ride. Studs are popular and so are the new green diamond (or whatever they're called, they have particulates in the rubber for...

    Yeah man, make it on out. Its getting cloudy right now and we are expecting more snow... quite frankly.. I'm tired of it. Had to shovel 5+ feet off my roof and now I cant see out my windows, get into my shed or even see one of my vehicles. Its been this way for 2 months. Summer in...

    Best snowboarding advice......

    Wolf Creek is great, I live 45 minutes from there. I always hear "You shouldn't have to wear a helmet there due to the massive amount of snow we get.." but its still a good idea on groomers and tree skiing over in the waterfall area. I don't wear a helmet usually, i probably should. The last...

    8400/8500 Penryn's

    I see a lot of threads with folks buying the new 45nm's, but I haven't seen Anandtech do a review or benchmark any of them.. Is this correct or am i blind in one eye and can't see with the other..? Any other trustworthy sites have any reviews..?

    Build Me The Best $500-$600 System

    I would go with this system. You can even go to a 6750 to save some more money and get a better mobo/ram. But I dont overclock. Thats a damn good setup though.

    Catalyst 8.1 are out!!

    So.. do these cover the x1400 mobile..? I saw the list and saw x1300, but not my stupid x1400. I would like to put these on my Dell... but Dell is retarded about drivers.

    Need help on buying a graphics card for my laptop

    No. The E1505 cannot be upgraded. I looked into upgrading my E1505 and Dell told me it only came with the x1400 and the x1300. the 17xx Dell's can take 7300's from what I was told.

    Nehalem and Penryn

    If I were to buy a motherboard today, which one would accept the new chips from Intel.. if any..? Would the x38 be the best choice..? are they moving from LGA 775 to a new socket..? Sorry for noob or "too early to tell" questions. Thanks! Tyler

    NOT see this movie. I got really excited when the ad said "Welcome to Gunnison Colorado" where the film is supposed to take place.. I lived in Gunni' and loved it.. then I found out they just took the name, and has nothing to do with the town. That and I found out who is directing it...

    Screen Resolution

    Hi, I've heard that the lower your screen resolution, the more strain it puts on the CPU vs the GPU.. Is this correct? For an example, I played COH last night at 10x7 with everything on medium, would I get better frames if i put it at a higher res and turn everything to low..? System...

    They won the war of perception... When did 260+$ for a minimal card became cheap?

    I agree with OP. Look at the 4 series. the 4400 was vanilla, the 4600 was "ultra" and the 4200 was the low/midrange. But price per performance the 4200 was also a "steal", but at only $120-150. Looking at prices now... the high end is ridiculously priced at 500-600, the "vanilla's" are...

    G92 taped out boys

    I agree completely. Look at the trend. Back in the 4 series you could get the low end Ti4200 for a buck and a half. And you knew it was a great card because everyone and their mom had one. Its performance was incredible for that amount of money spent to buy it. Nowadays the "low end cards"...

    Counter-Strike: I suck

    Well, i think asking for advice on how to play strizzy is a lot like reading a manual on how to hit a baseball. You really cant learn "that" much. Just join servers and keep playing. I've been in the cs community since the first beta was released in 1999 and I'm still learning. GG servers...

    Do you think I should get an 8600 Ultra?

    I was thinking about it as well. I cant afford top end cards, and I will be going from AGP to pci-e with my next upgrade so even less money will be put towards a vid card. For the price, I think it would be a great card.
