    games problem

    How long have you had this problem, is it a recent occurence? Have you changed anything in your PC recently? Try unplugging all the cables and cards (including memory sticks) and reseating them before you format and reinstall everything.

    Prey...hmmm

    This game deserves to sell (even though it probably wont) on artistic merit alone. Its got to be the most creative an imaginative games i've seen for years. Its also the first game to ever give me motion sickness!

    New AM2 Gaming rig..

    If you are looking for the best games performance (just guessing ;) ) then it might be an idea to sacrifice 1GB of RAM for now. You'll save yourself about £50-60 which I would put into a better gfx card. I found this on ebuyer :- ebuyer.com - 7800GTX 1GB of RAM should run anything you...

    New AM2 Gaming rig..

    Personally I would go for the 3800 and the standard 7600GT. The CPU will be slightly more future proof and you could always OC the gfx card yourself. Good luck.

    Need help chosing right graphics card.

    Not sure how the PCI-e 6600 compares with the old AGP 6600GT, sure somebody can help out. But if you can squeeze another £25 into your budget this 7600GT looks amazing value to me :- Ebuyer - 7600GT If you cant stretch to that then perhaps consider another 512MB RAM with the 6600, that...

    Need help chosing right graphics card.

    The 6600GT will definately run HL2,mines at 1280 x 1024 with high detail and low AA. I dont know about Oblivion as i've never seen it run on my 6600GT. Far Cry is silky smooth as well at max detail and is even playable with HDR lighting switched on at 1280 x 1024. What are the specs of the...

    Best sites for pc building.

    I've always used Ebuyer They seem to be cheaper or as cheap as other sites, are reliable and most importantly for an online store their returns system is simple and trustworthy if anything goes wrong. Delivery dates are usually spot on as well. Good luck!

    New Graphics Card ??

    Trufflees, the 6600GT is really the minimum you need with your setup (similar to mine) for BF2. I run BF2 at 1280 x 1024 and it needs low detail to play MP smoothly. I ran the COD2 demo which was playable but when the detail was ramped up it did start to stutter and lag when things got busy. I...

    Simple TV card advice.

    I hadn't really thought about analog or digital, but it makes sense to get a digital card. It'll be a PCI card as the machine is never moved and they're cheaper I think. I've looked at the hauppage site and found this :- Hauppauge Digital: WinTV Nova-T PCI Any other manufacturers with...

    Simple TV card advice.

    Hello, Im looking for a basic TV card for a friends PC. It will only be used to watch TV whilst using a treadmill to exercise so there is no need for recording or anything fancy. There is an aerial socket about 6 feet from the PC which I guess should be able to supply a decent signal strength...

    Antec neo he OR Hiper type-r

    I would go for the Antec just because i've used them before and they've always been reliable for me, plus its cheaper. Saying that the Hiper gets good reviews and looks sexeh as well :) You do want reliability with your PSU though.
