    5850: Reference vs Custom

    The stock card doesnt have any problems overvolting, it's the newer custom ones that seem to. I think I'm just gonna try to find one of the reference stock cooler cards.

    5850: Reference vs Custom

    I did notice that Asus card seemed to be one of the few custom cards that support overvolting. Seems like a good option. As for the MSI, judging by the reviews I've been reading, it looks like people arent having much luck overvolting using the MSI software.

    5850: Reference vs Custom

    I've been looking to get a 5850 for a while now, but since I've been trying to get one at under $300 my purchase keeps on getting delayed. (Maybe I'm just not looking in the right places I dunno) Anyways, these days it looks like most of them for sale are ones with custom cooling and from...

    MW2 versus BC2

    As far as MW2 is concerned I will never give my money to a game that removes key features. In other words a game without dedicated servers does not get my support. I don't feel like I missed out on anything special either. BC2 is awesome though. I liked BF2 (but was terrible at it) and loved...

    Best Low Profile AGP Card for the money?

    I recently bought a used cheap shuttle pc to hook up to the tv in the bedroom to mostly just watch videos, and maybe play a few older games once in a while.

    Battlefield: Bad Company 2 on My PC

    I currently have Q6600 @ 3.0ghz 8800gts 4gb ram Win7 Pro 64bit And BC2 barely every goes under 40fps for me on all high with HBAO turned off. Usually it's between 45-60fps. So I don't think you'll have a problem.
