Download the latest driver from nvidia.com as opposed to whatever came on your cd (if you havent already) Make sure your agp slot is running at 8x Make sure that if the card requires extra power it is plugged in I don't think your issues are due to the video card. But more likely due to your...

Is it still nforce 4? I wasnt sure if they gave it an extra number for intel sli or not.. I assumed so.. Well any suggestions for intel sli period would be appriciated.

Was a typo. According to tom there was no jump from 5950(ultra) to 6800 (6800 gets better benchmarks @ 1600x1200 anything lower and they're practicly identical). They benchmark the same using his results. Comparing the 6800 to the 7800, i noticed about a 50fps jump in performance when using...

I think tom is full of shit. There have been discrepencies in his benchmarks for a long time now.. but this takes the cake. One of my 6800s (ocd) will outperform the benchmarks listed. I wonder how much ATI is paying for that banner on his site. (Not saying ati is bad, just saying tom is a...

I've seen the GA-8N-SLI and the ASUS P5WD2.. I was wondering if anyone could recommend any other nforce 5 intel sli motherboards?

I'd do it if possible. Theres a good chance you'll lose all your data going to a new controller anyway.

Nope, i'd say psu or mb.. See if you can take it to a local shop and have them test it for you.

i guess what i was saying is... it doesnt matter because it isnt going to give you the performance you're expecting. So to answer your question, no. it will not help the speed of your system at all. A drive that get 75mbs on sata 1 is gonna get 75mbs on sata2.

You're too tense. I was making an anology on his anology.

You can run dual channel with 2 sticks. I'm not sure about your raid question. I would run 1 ide drive stand alone for your games/os/software.. Then use the other drive for storage. Theres really no sense in putting your OS install on a raid.. Other than you have a 50% greater chance of...

Watch out for the XMS memory.. There is some of it that has LEDs on the top, there is one that has a marquee that you put ontop of your ram. Then you can set it up to scroll "my computer rocks" or whatever across your ram. Don't want to end up paying an extra 100$ for something you dont need or...

Make sure you have power plugged into your video card or it wont display. Unplug everything and leave only power to the motherboard and your video card with power to it. (Unplug all ide cables, sata cables, front panel usb/firewire, power buttons, etc.) Then turn the system on with a screw...

I'm not really sure but.. My winchester wont overclock past 2.7.. The 3500 venice core (at 10x and 11x) i tested easily surpassed this to 2.895.. or 2.985 .. I don't remember which there are too many numbers in my head. I posted the results of my overclocking in the forum, do a search for it...

gigabyte 8n royal is a good board.. Comes with a blue tooth dongle.

Gainward went out of buisness (not sure if it was just US or worldwide).. Have fun trying to RMA something to them if it doesnt work. Or at least.. this is what i was told by the tech when i called to get an RMA #.. Had to ship a 100$ video card to taiwan to be repaired. I would say leadtek...
