    It's the "World's First" 7.1 Surround Sound Headset

    I've been using a Logitech 7.1 headset for a few months now. It works well. I play mostly Left4dead and I can hear if the zombies are behind or on the sides of me, which is a huge advantage over 2 channel headsets.

    8800gtx distant fog glitch....

    I have the same problem with 8800gtx. Glad to hear it's not just me. I tried a number of things to fix it but no success.

    Overclock is slowing my boot up.

    I reset bios. Then I overclocked the super easyway. The ONLY things I changed in bios was the Multipler ,FSB, and linked memory to get a 3.83 OC. It's booting fast again. I'm new to OCing, I hope everything works ok since it's pretty much all on auto by default. Mutlipler = 8 FSB = 1700 Memory...

    I Need Help Showing Off!

    Anyone know of some good programs that can make people go WOW ? I recently built a rig with an e6600 and gtx8800 both water cooled and overclocked. Now I need some justification for spending so much money. I would like some programs that can show the true power of my new rig. The people I will...

    Overclock is slowing my boot up.

    I disabled the new performance state policy behavior and it still boots slow.

    Overclock is slowing my boot up.

    I have a e6600 OCed to 4ghz, raptor HD. My boot time is over a minute now. It used to be under 30 seconds at e6600 stock speed. Is this normal?

    Conroe E6600 3DMark6

    That is an awesome score for a GTS. My GTX at stock settings with e6600 stock was about 10k. Did some OCing, e6600 is at about 4ghz, 8800gtx 667/1000 and i scored about 12,400. Both are water cooled.

    My 3DMark06 Score With 8800GTX and E6600

    Well I thought I'd try some overclocking. First attempted failed to boot so I reset bios. Decided to not overclock for now. I downloaded some new drivers for the 8800 instead and now I'm getting nearly 10,000 3DMark06 :)

    My 3DMark06 Score With 8800GTX and E6600

    Is this right? 8,300 for 3DMark06 with e6600, 8800gtx, PC-8500 Corsair memory, and 680I motherboard. Nothing has been overclocked yet. But I will be overclocking in the future. I am a total noob to overclocking and water cooling but I think I prepared pretty well for it. My loop is 240BIX -...

    Question about tubing

    The inside of my tubing is now translucent white. It used to be clear a couple of weeks ago when I first started using it (with distilled water). Does anyone know what this white stuff is? And how do I get rid of it? I'm new to water cooling. This is my first water cooling system. I built it...
