    GTX 470/480 looks like a fail so some help please?

    You will be missing out on physx effects, for example there would be no APEX Turbulence(smoke) from the jetpack in darkvoid with the old drivers. Easy to do, it will take about 5 mins and away you go. You can get info and files here...

    XFX 5970 Black edition with 9800gt for PhsyX?

    Nah, keep it, for the eye candy. Without starting the green red war PLEASE, phys-x is for the candy (Metro 2033 is stunning), imo you wanted the best by getting yourself the 5970 Black, so compliment it with the 9800gt. Try it before you decide, it only takes as long as a reboot into safe...

    Strange 5870 vapor-x desktop flicker issue.....

    It is a bug in powerplay when using dual screens. I set my pci-e lanes to 101Mhz in the bios and it fixed it for me(but not working for everyone). Or you can try to switch powerplay off.

    using physx with ati

    As you said it's a spare card, try it and don't listen to the other guys, the only thing it will cost you is TIME to set it up. Ok there are not many games that use it, but I have played Batman and Dark Void has cool smoke effects. Metro 2033 and Just Cause 2 will be using it too. 2nd that.

    Work Log : Changing GPU Cooler

    Gpu-z for reading the temps. http://www.techpowerup.com/downloads/1761/TechPowerUp_GPU-Z_v0.3.9.html MSI Kombustor, which is a version of Furmark, but be careful with it as it can cook your GPU.

    Dual screen, one glites when browsing

    Used to happen to me when 5870 first came out, to fix it, lock your pci-e lane to 101mhz.

    Will broken sata connector void warranty?

    Will broken sata connector void warranty?

    Can anyone tell me if a broken sata tab will void your warranty? I have a samsung F1 500g HD that's starting to fail but the sata connector tab snapped off about a year ago (I know they are not the strongest parts in the world but it literally did just snap off!). I handle lots of...

    Catalyst Will Not Install

    If you have used any third party driver cleaners for getting rid of old drivers? I have done in the past, and it cleaned out too much ati stuff that wouldn't let me install another driver. Which led me to a new OS install.

    Overclocked my XFX 1GB 4870

    Have you used gpu-z to monitor your temps while playing your games? The temps you have are fine, although I nearly cooked my vrms when i swapped the fan on mine without putting a good enough heatsink onto the vrms. Lucky I still had the gpu-z log for it though. Oh, and it's still going...

    Losing Patience with FERMI

    IMO you are crazy going to xfire 5970's or the best fermi with that screen. BIN it and buy 1 5970 or better still, 2 5870 vapourX's and with the money you save from buying another 5970, buy a new lcd, i've got a sycnmaster P2450 about £180. And there is no lag and better gaming (and unleash the...
