    My Results

  1. Don't ever use modified drivers, they offer no speed improvement I've ever seen and when you have a graphical error the only way you can get rid of it is to use DriverCleaner3 and take all nvidia crap out than use the official version.

    Just use coolbits 2 that is just a registry key that unlocks overclocking and stuff. :P

  2. Have you ever overclocked? Is there a burning smell? These are the signs of a bad CPU.

    Don't immediatly disregard the RAM, it can be anything. I know this happened to me after installing a new network card that was conflicting with my built in LAN.

  3. Best home computer is approx $5000

    This is minimum for the max performance.

    AMD X-2 4400

    4 gigs DDR2 PC8000 1000MHz

    Geforce 7800 GTX OC (SLI'd)

    146.8 SCSI 15K RPM 8MB Buffer 3.2 read time

    And of course some random 19" monitor, 600W powersupply with water cooling. etc.

  4. I got VIA, I heard something like this before so I'll try a registry tweak right now, see if that works.

    k, I'm going to check it in Everest Ultimate now, I found a Via4xMode reg tweak, but it didn't fix it from displaying 2x, and I found in graphics card info tab it said 8x.

    Everything says it's fine except for that one thing, so it must be fine.

  5. Yeah, BFG is the best manufactor and then XFX takes second.

    Geforce6 series is the way to go if you get the chance, on tigerdirect there's a bunch of 6 series that are actually just on par in price with the 5 series. 6 makes major improvements compared to the 5.

    But yeah, in this specific question, the 5 wins all the way. I know.

    I used to have a GeforceFX 5200 PCI, quality was excellent, bump mapping, good lighting. So now I'm on a GeforceMX 4000 AGP and there's no bump mapping, the lighting is screwed up, etc. Although I will admit because it's AGP it's way f*cking faster.

  6. You gotta check to make sure the ram is in place, that mouse thing has nothing to do with it.

    Also, when you reset the cmos, make sure you unplug the outside "AND THE INSIDE" cables as well to make sure no power goes to the board, and wait on 2-3 JBATs for up to 3-6 seconds than return it.

  7. At Tigerdirect I was looking for graphics cards when I noticed this.

    Most of the 128MB graphics cards are more expensive than the 256MB ones.

    WTF IS GOING ON?

    The 256MB is all around the better choice, what's the problem here?

    And I also found a 512MB Geforce that was cheaper than a 128 or 256.... wtf?
