opinions, good and bad, are appreciated :)

Hi guys. I am planning on getting my second computer from Xidax (bought one 2 years ago and love their quality and customer service). This second computer will be for my son. He is a gamer, but im trying to get him a solid mid range rig without breaking the bank. What do you guys think of...

ok sounds good. thanks guys!

ok great. And it is like catalyst where you download it (and latest versions of it) when you update your drivers? What i mean is, when i go to update my drivers currently from radeon's site, i usually get the latest drivers bundled up with the latest catalyst, which runs resident on my desktop.

ok thanks guys. So, from what i can see, it seems pretty similar to eyefinity. Would you say its more or less difficult to set up, or about the same?

Hi guys, I currently have 2 radeon 5800's in crossfire and i use eyefinity within the Catalyst program to run 3 screens. I am in the process of speccing out a new pc, and its looking likely that i will be moving away from Radeon (which i hadnt done in years) and getting a 780TI for my new rig...

Thats the kind of answer i like to hear :) To answer you, no, no graphics design here. I am strictly a gamer. But, when i DO use all 3 monitors, you are correct that i do like to do surround gaming, and i WOULD like to run these games on as high settings as i can. The kind of games that i...

Well, as i said, i paid just under 3k for my system last time. I'd like to keep myself closer to 2k this time if its feasible. keep in mind i just need a rig. No keyboard/monitors/mouse/peripherals whatsoever.

Hi guys, Back in 2009 or so i purchased a machine running 2 Radeon 5800's in SLI, and i run 3 monitors on it (1920 x 1080). I dont use all 3 monitors often for gaming (i keep the side monitors disabled most of the time thru eyefinity), but i DO turn all 3 on sometimes for some FPS games and...
