noobs. Five antennas must be necessary because it probably has to broadcast across multiple wifi channels to transmit the mas amount of data for UNCOMPRESSED high-def resolutions, 1080p is I think 1.2Gbps.

pretty sure i saw an analog cpu meter 6+ years ago. thought it was dumb then, too.

IMO: cod mw2 and cod BO should have been $20 expansion sets like the good old days. they are certinaly little more than expansions, the same gameplay and engine just new maps and guns.

SC2 doesn't break more than 40% cpu usage on my quad, so that's not really a good reason for getting one. I'd say it's a good idea to get an X3 to save $$, then if it happens to stable unlock to an X4, cool. If not, you won't miss any gaming performance.

Sure it's hookep up properly to power and that his psu isn't struggling? I recently put a rig together for a friend for under $500, which has an Athlon X3 and gtx460 on a 500W psu. That thing plays games awesome if not better than my own rig.

sounds like i'll happily be buying an AM3+ board to drop my 965 into, to last me until the X8 prices are reasonable. ty, AMD, for the sensible (and fiscally intelligent) upgrade path.

i just bought the 24" version of that viewsonic and like it alot (the vx2450). i'd recommend the 22" in a hearbeat. wouldn't get the samsung, it only has a year warranty. i had a 3-yr warranty lcd die after about 30 months (the rectifier, i'd suspect). man was i glad it had a 3-yr warranty...

my 4870 (and the 3870 before that) fit perfectly fine. they touch the pipe, yes, but there is no issue.

apple can thank gaypods, and the wide-spread industry adoption of said gaypods, for their existence today. :shadedshu

sounds like 60hz noise from a ground-loop, probably due to crappy wiring in your house and/or power strips. this occurs when the resistance to ground varies across where all of your components are plugged in. the end result being that for one device plugged in, instead of ground being 0V it...

odd.. my k9a2 plat likes bios v1.10 (1.A in hex :laugh:) just fine. i haven't seen it on any compatibility list yet for the X6 cpus, but that's great news if support is coming. also, if you decide to stick with the X4 965 idea, it will run and oc great on the k9a2 plat. see my rig.

i had the same problem with the end of crysis. floating boss, run around glitched, crash.

^^ this guys coming the closest to using real logic to justify dpi. so turn up your sensitivity :laugh: i swear, people with newer mice (my friends included) are always adjusting their dpi on the mouse when they are switching apps. i however just have set everything once to the desired...

crap like this is pointless, people will buy anything with a convincing enough of an advertisement. i have this feeling in general about any 'gaming' keyboard or mouse. my nearly 7 year old logitech mx700 (800dpi & wireless) is still going strong and i have never had problems in any game.

technically the 930 replaced the 920, the only difference is the multiplier. i seriously doubt the 930 would oc any different/better. just get the 920, if you can find it, since it's cheaper
