You should be using a SLC SSD drive for Intel's smart response; this allows you to make more writes than a MLC SSD drive.

el kido is right, we need to know this info to help you better. A lot of the time, the bios sets the RAM timings incorrectly. You can go to your RAM manufacturer's forum and ask them what the proper timings are for your motherboard and RAM as it can be quite finicky.

Many of my games use all 4 of my cores. I would imagine that games will begin to take advantage of more than 4 within a year.

He blew a fuse in his house and cannot post!

It came in. Shortly after, his house burned down from a localized super nova which was traced to his computer.

My 4890 PCS+ plays all games with highly acceptable frames with the graphics turned up. Although, my max resolution is only 1680x1050.. heh heh heh.

You cannot deny that this card runs hotter than all that came before it. It's a fast and powerful card; but it's also HOT!

Hot hot hot!

You're going to need a bigger boat.. errr reservoir.

Haha, DLP. Get a real TV!

It's probably because you're using an awful DLP TV.

I do!

The controls aren't that complicated. The Wii version has somewhat complicated controls in comparison to the PC version.

Don't get the AC7 heatsink. It's a nightmare to install the first time. If you ever plan on removing it, then this isn't the heatsink for you as it tends to either get stuck or the install pins snap and bend awkwardly so that they remain unusable. Pick yourself up something that has screws in order to ensure future usability and ease of removal. I suggest looking at some Coolemaster products. They tend to be excellent coolers that have easy install and removal procedures.

I've seen similar cards without fans die doing routine tasks. So you'll probably kill it with the introduction of overclocking.

Just the usual tweaks that everyone has mentioned on here already.

Check out my video score! http://www.pcpitstop.com/betapit/sec.asp?conid=22436445 Top 0%. I set the standard, baby!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

What was it?

It definitely looks good on 70" at 1080!

Congrats on the job. You've got to take what you can find these days.

Why don't you want it to have onboard video?

Mine was free as it's an app on my iPod touch.

I'll get my scores in as soon as I can which will be tomorrow hopefully.
