    8800 (g92) Gts Sli?

    Yup, already uninstalled drivers and reinstalled, double checked everything, SLI is enabled. I'm going to disable the SLI and run it that way a a few minutes to see what happens, I'll let you know.

    8800 (g92) Gts Sli?

    I just put 2 x XFX 8800GTS’s (Alpha Dog’s) in my rig yesterday. I was running 7900GT’s. I just wanted an upgrade, it was about time. My 3Dmark06 scores were around 5800 with the 7900’s and today I got 8600 with the 8800GTS’s. I know these aren’t the best scores out there by all means. I don’t...

    Thanks for the response/info. If you think about it, that's why I started this thread so we can get the info flowing, it has to start somewhere. :rolleyes: Based on the 50+ views of this thread and only 1 response there must not be too much info out there. :ohwell:

    ATI 9800 = crappy construction!?

    Dude, this link goes to a CPU, 3800+ model! :confused: Also, had you threatened to slit my throat, I would of beat the #@!$ out of you and then stuffed your PC up your pimply A hole, but that's just me. Have you ever heard of anger management, go get some! :wtf: :shadedshu :mad: :eek: :(

    Here is why I buy all of my stuff at Newegg!

Instead of shipping the entire case back I asked that they just send me the knob off of another unit, they did and it...

    CPU... heating up a little.

    You know what they say, "if it's not broke don't fix it". The previous temps sound pretty good so why did you mess with it? :shadedshu Even your current temps aren't that bad. Regardless, I would check and make sure your heatsink is properly seated and don't over use the AS5 (there is a curing...

    My water cooling setup *Finish* *56k Warning*

    Chillen! Looks pretty nice, clean wiring. :cool: Just a recommendation, move your HD up one notch so it gets better air flow around it, if you have the room anyway why not. ;) I have both of mine located in the same bay with an 80mm fan right in front of them, keeps them cool. :D Where's your...
