What about Gigabyte's MA790X-DS4? I saw one yesterday for $160AU, so they should be pretty cheap in pounds. I've heard nothing but good things...
It would be safe to assume they'll come out Q2 or 3 to coincide with the DX11 launch. I wouldn't bother waiting. Get a 4870 as a stop gap measure.
I love my Phenom BE, OCs like a dream, and cheap as chips; which let me splash out on the 4870. If I could afford it, I'd have gone with the...
I had so much fun tweaking the settings with the benchmark system I didn't start playing the game properly until Saturday. For what it's worth, I...

Any hardware guides out for this yet?
I strongly doubt the loose cables would have shorted anything. So long as there was no exposed copper wire on the cables, you should be fine. Your...
Currently running G-Police and Colony Wars 1+2 on my PSP. Thank God for pandora batteries and homebrew.
Perma-death would be a great idea for a free game though. That would mean people aren't so invested in it, I know I'd be pissed off if I'd leveled...
That's an interesting point. I'd totally ignored the 4870x2 option because I thought with my current 4870, I'd barely be seeing any gains. So a...
I wonder if you could run them in Crossfire...? I'll take 9 thanks.
I've only had my rig in it's current state for a couple of months and I'm already looking at where to take it next. When I got it together the aim...
Leave NPC names on, turn PC names off. You need to create a custom display setting, then it's under the advanced tab. The frame gains are...
To get the benefit of the 4870X2, or even the single chip card, you really need a 22" display at the very least. Crank AA up on EVERYTHING.
I'm picking up the Collectors Edition TONIGHT!!! But... I won't be playing until mid-next week, because my rig died last week due to faulty...
Seriously? Vista 64bit as a min spec for Crysis Warhead? That has to be ********. EA wouldn't put out a game that requires an OS that a small...
Rather than thinking about future redundancy on the 4870X2, I'd start saving up for a second one. Just thinking about two of those bad boys...
I've got the 4870, and it rocks my world. Just don't throw Crysis at it, and if you do, crank AA all the way up. For some reason, the 4870's fps...
It was a Thermaltake 430 watt PSU, luckily, it's still under warranty; so are the rest of my components. Anyone in Australia interested in a...
Not fifteen minutes go my rig died in spectacular fashion. She's got a stock Phenom 9850, Gigabyte MA790FX-DQ6 Motherboard, 2 x 2GB DDRII...
