Hey guys anyone using heatsinks (nonstock) or anyone even using an aftermarket cooler? If you are please tell me what you are using and your temps =)

thanks

im asking because 60c load on my gtx 460 is too much for my taste =) also my gtx 460 has no ram heatsinks which i think is causing artifacts

dude hoots u have to agree with me!!! dont buy a 5750!!!!! stay away from it as far as possible!! hoots why didnt u tell him b4! its the same price! the 5770 destroys the 5750.... rofl dude a 5750 cant even play at 2400x600 haha get a 5770 and you cant go wrong... really man 3 monitors is a little to much for any card unless its $400 or more but hey its your weeding money =) btw y do u want 3 monitors?

a 5750 isnt enough.... a 5770 isnt enough either even though its a lot better than a 5750.... a 5830 still isnt quite enough even though its way better than a 5750 or 5770... a 5850 can handle it nicely but fps will be be around 25fps.... good luck i hope u change your mind

HAHA yeah i bet man your so lucky!!! u r using that adapter from saphire right??? i guess it worked perfectl =P

HOLY!!!! hoots> <noobs lol nice man beautiful

i ment held not help rofl....

guys look at this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crysis_2 and look at release date!

  ahhhhhhh lol i cant believe it!!! but i bet its true guess i will have to wait to kick some new-n-improved walking aliens in 200000000FT skycrapers in newyork!!! hahaha sounds so fun right now!!! lol cant wait

Hey war if u can please see when a demo release will be help =)

hoots i highly doubt a 5770 can do 7680x1600 and max crysis out.... rofl.... thats my point.... altough you are right, ati has eyefinity for 3 monitors so i suggest u get an ati card but not a cheapo one... The absolute cheapest card i would recomend is a 5830 with eyefinity like: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102878&cm_re=5830-_-14-102-878-_-Product...

they are absolutely amazing for the price and I was 99% about to buy it until the gtx 460 came out for the same exact price and got 2-3fps more in games.... but it cant take 3 monitors so thats why i suggest a 5830 for you.... a 5770 will be too slow for 3 monitors, lol even with a 980x @ 4.0ghz and 24gb ram.... haha

if u have more money i suggest: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102884&cm_re=5850-_-14-102-884-_-Product

whats system do u have now??

i dont really understand? will you have 2 or 3 monitors total? if 3 monitors i guess the 5000 series from ati is the way to go...

ok so im guessing 3 monitors... if so then what resolution.... if 2 monitors same question what resolutions will u play at....

how much money do you have???

for around $150 a 5770 can be had but, really you need a good graphics card for muliple monitors so why would you buy more monitors and a cheap graphics card?
the cheapest i would recomend for multiple monitors is a 5850... if not then a 5830 is in the middle and will perform nicely...

now if you are going to have only 2 monitors total then nvidia gets into the picture...
for less then $100 a used gtx 260 can be bought and will do good if not too high resolution...
a 5770 is great for 2 monitors also but not the best performing even though it is only about 3-5fps slower than a gtx 260...
for $200 a gtx 460 768mb can be bought, i own this guy and it rocks! it will definately be great for 2 monitors....
a 5850 will destroy 2 monitors easily at a medium/high res
a 5870 would be great but i dont recomend it.... its not THAT great.... the price isnt worth it... 5770 in cf beats it, 5830 cf craps on it, gtx 460 sli eats it for a snack

so yeah for u i recomend an ati 5850... =) any more questions feel free to ask

rofl nvm nvm!! the one you want is a lot better i think...

hey ever heard of the ati xgp?? looks good too

rofl my gtx 460 has hdmi so thats all i need, one easy cable and im done with full hd video and up to 7.1 audio 

thanks ontime, yeah i u posted that... Looks tempting, $43 total on ebay brand new. Idk if it will fit into my budget since im already getting more ram and a lot bigger hard drive... I did find a program though called network limiter... people say its good but idk how to use it =P

thanks =)

Hey guys, idk if i should have posted this here but i need some help... Well i gave up wireless and just went with the long cable route... Unfortunately, the econemy has caused my to remain with my crappy slow internet... So i have 2 computers on a cheap, crappy, old router from dynex... haha.... Ok so the problem is, online games for example Crysis Wars requires a minimum continous and specific amount of bandwith at all times... Well the other computer hooked up to the network (my sister) watches 10000000000000000000000000 youtube videos and it lags the crap out of Crysis wars making my ping go up to 1500 (HAHAHAH) and i get kicked from FWE!!! Since there are a lot of server knowledgable (is that a word?) people on here, can any1 tell me of a program/software or a fix, some kind of setting at allows me to limit the bandwith of the other computer to say 15-25kbps? didnt find anything on my router menu so if any1 has some kind of software to help me I would apreciate it =)

hey heres my pics of my crappy system other than my INCREDIBLY FAST GTX 460!! lol the only thing insteresting here is my case and graphics card.... Thanks to hoots I have switched to AMD with the cpu so as soon as i can i will be getting a new cpu for example
haha hope you like cuz i sure does! =P

Hey i got my gtx 460 btw and its super fast!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

leme see that system!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
