    how much of a difference in speed is there between Fat32 and ntfs on windows XP.

    So it sounds like they both have there strengths and there weaknesses but when it comes down to it, you just need to know what you are going to use the computer for. Question which one would be better for a gaming box, 80% gaming 10% music video and 10% internet browsing, which file system...

    Which 6800 ultra is the best?

    So from the look of things I think based on what you guys are saying is that MSI, Asus or leadtech are pretty sweet 6800 ultra's. I'm going to look into getting a Asus or MSi, i'll see what I can get for a good price.

    Best Power Supply

    What brand and model is the best power supply for a gaming Rig. I'll be running a 6800 ultra and a amd 64 processor, which power supply out there is rated number one, cost doesn't really matter.

    how much of a difference in speed is there between Fat32 and ntfs on windows XP.

    So your saying that NTFS is faster then, you saying two different things, you said one is faster FAT32, but after you use enough disk space the FAT32 slows down because of memory times. So which one is overall better or are they both pretty much the same.

    X800 XT PE...or 6800 ultra who has the better 3dmark 2003 score report here please.

    Thanks for the advice about SLI, but I don't think that's I'll be waiting for that to come out so I can buy two video cards for 500 bucks a piece. So getting back to the orginal question. Please post your 3dmark 2003 scores and 2001 score if you have an unltra or X800 XT !

    how much of a difference in speed is there between Fat32 and ntfs on windows XP.

    Me and a buddy can't decide which one is faster then the other, I think NTFS but he says there really isn't much of a difference except for larger disk support and dual boot, but not speed.

    Which 6800 ultra is the best?

    I've confirmed what was said above that the heatsink on the BFG 6800 GT and ultra, it runs pretty hot and isn't recommended for oc'ing anymore than it is already out of the box, even though it comes oc'ed.

    You know that's true about the memory difference the case being the 754 being only single channel but compared to the dual channel you should only see a 2% to 5% difference, dollar for dollar I think the new lanparty DFI board is a great buy. I wanted to match it up with a 3700 with a 1 mb...

    6800 Ultra Confusion

    Hey I agree with the difference between the cards, one being one slot the other being two. But it looks like the deluxe just has games with it, the regular doesn't inlcude the game pack. I think newegg posted the wrong picture, that deluxe version looks like a regular nvida geforce, I would...

    I've said it before and I will say it again, unless you plan on playing doom and farcry I don't see any reason to get the 256 mb version of the 9800 pro I would go with the 128 mb version. I know this review is a little old and doesn't include new games like doom 3 and farcry but I wouldn't...

    Which 6800 ultra is the best?

    So should I assume that all the seperate manufacture?s that are producing this card produce the same output as far as performance is concerned. It wouldn't matter if I bought the gigabyte version over buying the BFG version of the 6800 ultra, I should expect the same output.

    I really wasn't going the direction of water cooling, I know that is going to be the best direction for OC'ing but I would just like to stay with air cooling, I'm going to using a thermaltake case. here is the link. http://www.newegg.com/app/View...=11-133-132&depa=0 Thanks for all...
