Be sure to overclock the case also.

Now you see, case overclocking is a common error that is often misapplied when what you actually want to do is overclock all the screws holding your case and components together. That's right, get out that big screw driver and just keep tightening the screws - don't worry if it feels like they don't want to go in anymore, just keep twisting. You'll know you've achieved a proper overclock when the screws all turn freely, thus allowing smooth and free flow of data between all your components. Usually you see anywhere from a 7%-13% performance increase from this simple mod.

At least this Black Hole thread started out amusing as it pulled me in ...

You NEED the dongle. Call up Nvidia and ask them to have ATI send you a dongle so you can crossfire that sucker.

Will the dongle help the fact that I went ahead and seperated the 2 cards that were stuck together?

And the obvious question...can you overclock the dongle?

I should have bought a DELL

SEPARATED the two cards?!? Heck, I glued on ANOTHER ONE! I figured that was what Nvidia meant with last summer's "Power of Three" ad campaign.

I have to disagree.

The 7950GX2 can handle mad framerates whenever I play Starcraft and Chicken Invaders.

No stutters!

Look, you are all a$$holes who do not want to help me. I am right, you are wrong.

I have bought quad opterons, 12Gb of RAM, a 1900XTX (which I plan to crossfire with an S3 Virge) and a 300w ColorsIT PSU. Trying to fit it all into a Shuttle case. It should work ok but I'm having trouble getting the bits into the case, and that doesn't include the 1900XTX. I gave my dealer an advance payment of about $60,000 for that so I decided he should look after it for me. I plan to install this on tuesday when my brains arrive, I have ordered 29 tons of sheep dung to insert into my head.


My system runs sh!t, what could be wrong?

Tell me you bunch of hopeless a$$holes, because it's all YOUR fault.

This literally made me LOL.

Feel the love.

That love you feel is everyone getting together to "hate" another member in unison. So, there still is a target. Without a target, some of you may have nothing to talk about. LOL.

a target like you :? Mr Nvidia Fanboy

 

[ArchAngel777]

I had considered posting something ridiculously stupid, then I realized how many people we have on this forum that will quote your work out of context on a habitual basis. No thanks
