And what about XFX and saphire etc. ?
[QUOTE=Mindfuck 2;33462354]And what about XFX and saphire etc. ?[/QUOTE] XFX and Sapphire are reliable, along with HIS.
Do i need to have that cd you got for some purpose with the pc (i where 11 when i got this pc i dont know what it did) to reboot my pc?
[QUOTE=Angry Pineapple;33464730][B]XFX[/B] and Sapphire are reliable, along with HIS.[/QUOTE] Unless they break.
I went to Walgreens to buy compressed air to dust out my computer, but they couldn't sell it to me because I'm not 18... Is there anywhere else I can buy it?
[QUOTE=Brt5470;33469925]Unless they break.[/QUOTE] I liked XFX until two days ago when I tried to recover my lost password to register my second 6870 and they said my account doesn't exist when I have previous email exchanged with their support team about something. I aslo called them since I have their phone number for customer service and I was on hold for two hours then they hung up on me.

What's your budget? 6850<6870=560<560 Ti<570 For the most part.
I need some sort of Anti virus to go along with MSE, budget is $30 and I've been looking at malwarebytes and need opinions, If need be I can splurge and go with norton for $50.
You can't run two anti-viruses at the same time, they conflict, and why would you want to? They all have very, very similar blacklists regardless. And the best anti-viruses are free, so put your money away and keep MSE. Also for future reference, Norton is absolutely rubbish and should only be considered bloatware by computer literate people.

Hello, I'm not sure if this belongs in this section, but i'm posting it anyway. Everytime I startup GTA III on Steam it gives me the following error message: [B]Grand Theft Auto III requires at least 12MB of available video memory.[/B] I need to find a way around this error, any help would be thankful. P.S. I'm using Windows Vista 64-Bit

Try putting it in something like XP SP3/2 or Windows 98. Also try the various other options.
[QUOTE=BlueYoshi;33472850]Yeah right, source.[/QUOTE] As someone who has actually had to secure an [b]entire goddamn network[/b], I can say that most of the pay anti-viruses are shit. The only way to cure Norton is euthanasia by fire. MSE and Avast are the true god-tier AVs. AVG [b]used[/b] to be good but it's gone to shit recently. Malwarebytes is pretty damn good if you can get it set up (I couldn't, it wouldn't work for some reason). ClamAV is in the "acceptable" range.
How do I make youtube stop doing that autoplay thing for videos in my favorites list?

Anyone got any good Audio enhancement programs?
Depends what you are trying to enhance/remove but I have found iZotope RX great, though slightly complicated to use at first.

I was looking at a computer that has a Phenom II X6 and was wondering if their are any clear benefits of getting a six core processor that runs at 2.9 ghz? I mean, most games don't support that many threads. Would it be better to look for a duo-core? Or should I go for the Phenom II X6?
what are some of the best wireless-n/g routers out there?
