    idiotic question regarding the Antec P180

    The metal covers over the 5 1/4 bays? Just twist them top to bottom a few times and they will fall off. The mobo tray is not removable.

    Good power supply for Antec P180?

    I love my Antec NeoPower 480. Plenty of cable and silent.

    Overclocked my 6800 and GPU temps went down?

    No, I left them as they were. Should I raise them? I really wasn't planning on going much higher since this is a passive cooled card. I was more curious than anything. Is that the Nvidia driver you're referring to? I have the 71.89 drivers already. I'll check for the V-tuner update...

    Overclocked my 6800 and GPU temps went down?

    I have the passive-cooled Gigabyte 6800 (GV-N68128DH). It comes with V-Tuner 2 software to monitor the temps and control software overclocking. The default speed is 325/700 and I got 3Dmark05 scores of 3440 with the idle temp at 57C and not going higher then 62C. I overclocked it to 350/770 and...

    How to unlock Pipelines and Vertex Shader on a 6800 (nu/le/gs)

    Thanks for this info! I was able to unlock my Gigabyte 6800's 4 extra pipes (but not the shader; got artifacts with that turned on) and got a nice little 3Dmark05 increase!

    Unofficial Dell 2405FPW FAQ / INFO page 2405

    Yes, the 2405 comes with a DVI & VGA cable. My DVD is all wrppaed and tucked but it was about 5-6 feet long. Yep, I see that now. My 5200's DVI port was dead so I couldn't test it. My new 6800 has the Scaling controls in the software and it works great. God, this monitor scales games...

    My Radeon 9800 Pro works with native from DVI. I tried it with an older Geforce Nvidia 5200 Ultra and that was no dice through DVI though (as a matter of fact I couldn't get ANY DVI resolution to show up with that card. Maybe the DVI is defective on it).

    Thanks. I got mine yesterday and it's just gorgeous. I do get the slight buzzing from the monitor, but I'll live with it. For some reason I can't get the aspect ratio controls for smaller resolution to become available in the Image Settings menu. I'd like to play non-widescreen games without...

    Does anyone know if this monitor comes with a DVI cable? I checked Dell's site as well as googling and can't find any info on this.

    dell 24" wide screen and 6800nu

    Would the ATI drivers for a 9800 Pro have similar options to the Nvidia scaling ones?

    REQ: Can anyone w/ a Dell 2405 and a 17" LCD take a pic of the two side by side?

    There are several different aspect ratios used in movies. The most popular one is 1.85:1 which roughly translates to 16:9. This ratio would pretty much fill up the 2405's screen. The movie displayed in his pictures looks to be in the 2.35:1 ratio which is a much narrow ratio, thus the larger...
