    Can my computer run The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion?

    I will tell you I had it running on a Pentium M 1.8 GHz and a GeForce Go 6200, so I am certain that it will run on your computer. It will however have to be played on low settings. I am willing to bet you can still enjoy the game on low settings, I know I did at the time.

    I believe you are right. And this sucks beyond belief. I swapped not working 6990 for my 5870. The 5870 works. Swapped back to the 6990... and I am getting the same 2E. Well. I don't know what to say about this. I am willing to bet my warranty has been voided due to me using the water block. I...

    UPDATE: !!! I took out the CPU and saw that a couple pins were slightly bent. There was also a little bit of artic silver 5 on them. I did my best to clean and straighten them, and I no longer get the FF error code. Unfortunately, I still get error codes. I get 2A, and then a few seconds later...

    It is possible something got damaged assembling and disassembling. I am going to reseat the CPU again... last time it was taken off, the thermal paste sort of glued it to its waterblock, so it was pulled right out of its socket along with the block. I imagine that cant be good for the pins. I am...

    Hello peoples, I bought a 6990 yesterday and installed it on my computer. Unfortunately due to physical size restrictions of my Thermaltake Element S Case, I had to completely remove all hardware and make a couple modifications before I could fit the card properly. This mean't instead of a...

    Shouldn't I have DX11 with my Mobility Radeon 5870?

    Awesome! Tried DXdiag and it confirms I do have DX11. For whatever reason the windows experience tool doesn't know, but thats fine with me!

    AVADirect's W860CU: Mobility Radeon HD 5870 Vs. GeForce GTX 285M

    anamaniacHow many partners use Clevo laptops and just rebrand them? Lots. Mine is a Sager 8690... which is a rebranded Clevo W860CU... I have seen this model at other sites as well.

    AVADirect's W860CU: Mobility Radeon HD 5870 Vs. GeForce GTX 285M

    I liked this article because I found it so darn relevant... I actually have this same Clevo Laptop, with the 5870 and 8 gigs of RAM. The GTX 285M was a $50 premium over the 5870, and I am glad I chose to stick to the 5870. It is kind of strange one would pay more to have less performance. I...
