    *** XFX ATI Radeon HD 5870 XT Extreme Edition 1024MB @ £373.99 inc VAT ***

    Well after buying all the kit for a new PC and putting it all together then only thing missing is a graphics card... The amount of time I'm spending looking for ANY uk stock of 5850's or 5870's is getting silly. Not that keen on paying inflated prices for the original version either... And I...

    *** XFX ATI Radeon HD 5870 XT Extreme Edition 1024MB @ £373.99 inc VAT ***

    Anyone find anything to indicate if this comes with Dirt 2? CAn't find any mention (and this card isn't even listed on XFX's website).

    Intel X25-M G2 Solid State Drives

    As far as I've been able to tell, the difference in thicknees comes from a rubber case that they enclose the SSD in. Its exactly the same electrical part.

    what make 5850 overclocks best so far?

    You sure thats not just the bios of the Asus card that allows the tweak? I'd be very supprised if theres an actual physical difference atm. Oh, an people have been flashing other makes Bios' onto there cards for various purposes... Not sure how universal that is though...

    what make 5850 overclocks best so far?

    Well there is no 'standard' really, looks like it varies between 2-3 years.

    what make 5850 overclocks best so far?

    All the same, same PCB, same chips, same heatsink. The only thing that differs is the sicker and the warranty. You should see a few of the companies making moded / overclocked versions soon (see the vapour-x version of the 5870 just released as an example).

    Games with 5800 series

    The only one currently bundled is Dirt 2. Thats not even released yet, so all you get is a voucher... 5800's will likely only be bundled with DX11 games. And as those are not released yet....

    TRIM watch

    Its nothing to do with the motherboard, its the chipset driver / Sata controller driver that you need. So: OS (Win7 only atm) SATA Driver (most are in MB chipsets, so in that case you need chipset driver eg 680, 790 etc) Drive Firmware Remember that the only OS supporting TRIM isn't even...

    Selling cars....

    hehe thanks, I'm glad I'm not the only one :) To me standard MX-5's have never really had enough 'edge' to be a proper sports car... But yeah I can see what they mean.

    Which W7 Edition do you buy?

    Premium seem to be the sweet spot in the pre-orders. Professional didn't seem to offer that much more to justify the extra....

    Selling cars....

    HI I'm after some advice.... I HATE selling cars, I figure it always costs too much money and takes an age. So, what combination of adverts do you guys use? The only one that seems to be of any use (and costs a fortune, though I must say I'm not even getting nibbles atm :( ) is...

    ATI CrossFire & NVIDIA SLI

    If True.. Oh Dear Nvidia!

    Well price might be an issue in months to come (though tbh ATI will have a hard time increasing there already semi reasonable prices) but how about another slant... Feature set The one thing that competition has fostered is a lack of willingness for developers to adopt features that only had a...
