    GTX 970 - No Display

    Before buying any new hardware, go into the BIOS 'advanced features' and make sure that "init display first" is set to [PCIE x16] and "Onboard VGA" is set to [Enable if no Ext PEG]

    The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim announced

    Yes, I know exactly what you mean. My first impression (on the way to execution) was how similar it felt to Morrowind. I much prefer the 'dirty' look, it's way more realistic and atmospheric than the shiny 'plastic' look.

    Wow, just played the Dragon Age 2 demo, very impressive! The resolution options were just 800x600 or 1280x720, and detail is DX9.0 only but I got a constant 62fps throughout. 25Mbs connection

    Best looking game relative to release date?

    Severance: Blade of Darkness (2001) One of the first games with dynamic shadows and physics, and the best melee combat system of any game. Very atmospheric, and it still looks good today :) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2ysXRKtKijc Quake 3 great architecture, and curved arches...

    GTA V

    Since it won't be set in New York, I'm hoping they bring back the ability to fly planes. After completing SA, I spent hours just flying around, doing loop-the-loops around bridges, etc. :D As for setting a GTA game in London, I think many gamers (especially Americans) would complain about the...

    Eyefinity vs. 3DVision - immersion in a game.

    Maybe I'm missing something here, but wouldn't 3D Vision + TH2go give you the best of both worlds? Realistically, I can't see myself buying 2 more 24" monitors, just to increase peripheral viewing in games.

    why cant i play Fallout 3 ?

    I would reset everything to stock speeds, and then retry F3. Just because temps are ok, it doesn't mean the overclock is stable under load.

    Heatwave

    Arclite, you could always try reseating the heatsink? If the PC is running cool and GPU heatsink clean, then I can't think of anything else that would cause such high temps. My GTX got into the high 90's a few months ago, but after removing almost 3 years of dust from beneath the fan it was...

    Distant rocks/walls pixilated in crysis – normal?

    Did you try playing with no AA? I seem to remember a similar problem with some other game, where pixellation occurred when transparent AA was used. Have you tried any older drivers?

    NVidia - Which are the best drivers?

    I have problems with the 180 drivers and my 8800GTX. I can install the drivers and they work fine after the restart, but when I turn off the PC and try to do a cold start, I just get a black screen when it tries to load the gfx drivers :(. I tried removing rivatuner, nTune, and nHancer, but...

    Atitool & 8800 GTX

    The 8800gtx doesn't seem to work with atitool. I've had my GTX for over 2 years now, it runs at ~90c for hours every day with no problems, but it showed artifacts in atitool when I first got it.
