    Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here. agreed GTX 295 is the fastest. but for a far lesser cost, 2 x 5850s CF perform better.

    Which processor for my gaming build?

    I am planning to put together a gaming PC and I was all ready with the config etc. I had decided on an intel i7 920, and now all of a sudden I'm seeing reviews of AMD Phenom II X4 955 Black Edition 3.2GHz performing equally well, or even better in some cases. Also, both processors apparently OC...

    Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here. availability of the HD5850s and 5870s are really poor everywhere. I've been wanting to buy a Sapphire/XFX/Asus 5850 or 5870 for almost 2 weeks now. The only ones that have some sort of availability are Diamond and Powercolor, but I'd rather not go...

    Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here. ^^ thanks for the link. after some research, I think I've decided to go for the HD 5870. a single 5870 saves me about $160 over 2 HD5850s. I can use that saved up money to crossfire my 5870 eventually when I feel the need.

    @ desiibond: I have the Logitech Z-5500 5.1 speaker set. the thing is, the Z-5500 has an inbuilt amplifier with Dolby DTS processing. I'm gonna send digital signal to the Z5500 (via ToSLINK) and allow the Z-5500 to do the Dolby processing. is the sound card still worth the $150 it costs? i don't...

    Re: All Graphics Cards related queries here. yeah, i'm comfortable with Sapphire. my first and only experience with ATi cards (the X1600) was a Sapphire and it worked great. However, i'm not getting the components till later this month, so if XFX HD5850 is out by then, I'd prefer that. I...
