Bulldozer = Ouch

http://www.zdnet.com/blog/computers/amd-launches-fx-bulldozer-desktop-chips-eight-cores-for-245/6855 Now, whether this reflects in real world performance in a multitude of environments is another thing. What isn't up for debate, however, is that it is more expensive than its comparable Intel 2500k. Plus, it's a mandatory mobo upgrade if you're coming from AM3. Yes, there are BIOS tweaks, but AMD does not support Bulldozer on a tweaked AM3 board. This won't get me off the AMD trail, but it sure is a huge blow when Intel has Ivy Bridge just months away and AMD was putting so much hype around Bulldozer.

http://kimmle.net/images/scott/gs600.jpg Corsair GS600 Power Supply Used for approximately 2 months. I purchased this, thinking I would only need 1x6950 graphics card. Now that I have another on order, I had to buy an 850 watt power supply. The fan has built-in blue lighting and runs very silent. 80 Plus Certified Connections: ATX x1 EPS x1 PCI-E x2 4-Pin x6 SATA x6 Floppy x2 I'm looking for $50 shipped to the USA. $60 shipped everywhere else. PM me if you have questions/interest.

In-Game Video Recording.
by Guest RET.CW2.POLLVX=US=- 10 replies

After tonight's filming for the Unknown Soldiers trailer, I went online to see what software can record videos...apparently, XFIRE can. I cannot get it to work, as it crashes every time I try to record, but maybe some other people will have luck. It's scroll-lock+V for video recording. You may have to set the rederer for the game to D3D11, if you're using that. Also, to toggle crouch...look in the GameSettings.ini file under the BFBC2 directory under My Documents. ToggleCrouch=1.

BC2 and BF3 Beta both crashing randomly
by Guest Cycle- 6 replies
- 1.8k views
Hello fellow clanmates, I am strugling with a consistent crash in both BF:BC2 and BF3 beta. After like 5 to 10 minutes of playing the game (all settings flat out and still 90 fps steady) it crashes, the screen turns white and after a few seconds I return to the desktop and can't restart it. (Tried low graphics too but it still crashes). All drivers are fully updated (BF3 beta version) and all the games are also fully updated. My system should be working fine but I'll post it here just in case: i7 970 12GB Corsair vengeance ram GTX580 Platinum The rest won't really care in terms of game performance.

This company is based out of my state and they do some pretty cool builds. I've seen a fully hydro cooled system today with all the bells and whistles. It was a crazy looking machine. Im sure the guy getting it done was paying like 5k + for it. http://www.geekbox.com/ They will build you whatever you want and I do believe they have a lifetime warranty. So if your sick of those big manufactures who only show certain computer builds and do not leave you with upgrade capability. Then this may be the place to look. All you have to do is create a parts list and give them a budget and they will help you get a computer your happy with. This is for those who cant build …

Resolution problem
by Guest Heat- 2 replies
- 984 views
So today I installed steam and tried to update my drivers. I did that and installed the new drivers. About half-way through the installation, everything got really big. My screen size used to be 1600x900 (I think) and now it's really crappy and it won't let me change it. When I go to screen resolution option and try to make it bigger, it gives me a black screen and says frequency out of range. Does anybody know how to fix this?

BC2 freezes when i start it up, and whenever i click something in the menus. Few other games freeze up at start up, including TS3, but doesn't keep freezing like BC2. I tried Google-ing the problem. It seems that other people have it, and there are numerous of ways to fix them. I feel i have tried them all. My GPU is updated to the latest versions/drivers. I have even uninstalled and re-installed Steam and all of my games. Specs: Win 7 64-Bit Home P. Intel i7 (1st Gen) Quad-Core @2.80GHz > Factory OC'ed to @3.36GHz, 8MB Cache 6GB Triple Channel 1333Mhz DDR3 RAM ATI Radeon HD 5870 1GB GDDR5

XBOX 360 Controller for BC2 Issues
by Guest SudzMcDuff- 0 replies
- 719 views
Hey guys, I heard one of you talking about using your 360 controller while playing battlefield but don't remember who. When i use the default driver, BC2 will not recognize the right analog stick or the D-PAD. And when i use XPadder, the analog sitck movements just to not seem as smooth as they should be. I was wondering if any of you use the 360 Controller and what your setup in XPadder is, or if I've missed something in BC2 settings. Thanks!

Internet speed options

Ok so my wife and I just bought a house, which means I will soon be back online with all of you!! The next step is getting the internet and cable hooked up. My question, and I am curious of what our clan techies think, is what internet option/speed I should get. Here are my options: http://www.timewarnercable.com/texas/learn/hso/roadrunner/speedpricing.html I was thinking the 15 or 20 but to be honest is it worth the money? The 15 worries me because it is a "power boost" which makes me think it is not consecutive and therefore a waist of money. Thoughts? It's sad, I can put someone's face together and save lives, but internet speed gets me scratching m…

by Guest h4344- 11 replies
- 3.8k views
I wanna try to hook my computer up to my TV, the only problem i have had so far is that i cannot find out how to get the right cords/adapters for this. My graphics card has 2 DVI plugins, both are DVI-I dual link. and it also has 1 HDMI plugin. My TV has a S-Video and the Yellow, red, and white plugins which i believe is called RCA. So really my question is does anyone know of any cords or adapters that can help me hook the computer too the TV? Dosent have to be the audio just the video.
