Is there a technical issue preventing ATI to build/release a HDTV version of an All-In-Wonder? Thx. -- RJ

Hi, I just can't help but see that people are not ****ed off, but in fact paying these ridiculous graphics card bills. I remember the days we were paying $65 for a really good graphics card. Although I know that todays's cards are way way different than those days', I still think that especially...

I am assisting a client in purchasing a new PC. Since this person is not a PC geek, I think a ready made Dell would be a good deal. The requirements are that it be able to run the normal day to day MS office programs, photo manipulation and printing, and play games like The Sims. They would...

Not sure if anyone has posted this yet, but here is the X800 PRO made by HIS with what looks like the Arctic Cooler VGA hsf. http://www.hisdigital.com/html/x800pro_iceqii.htm# I cant find anything that says cost or availabilty though. The Artic Cooler site has no info on...

how close is the 9700 pro to a 9800 pro in performance is there a big gap?

Anybody know when the Doom 3 demo is coming out? I'm holding of buying the retail copy til I know how it handles on my machine and if I should upgrade. Somethings telling me yes! Radeon 8500 128mb 300/300 XP2400 TB @ XP 2700 512mb Ram

Given the state of the US dollar, I was thinking of buying a 9800 card from the States and importing it to the UK. I can get a card locally for £135 ($256) so it would have to be considerably less than this for me to take the risk (and pay the postage!). So, what's a 9800 Pro selliing for in the...

Just bought a ti4200 on the cheap thinking there would be a modest but noticable speed improvement from a Radeon 8500. But after running 3DMark03 and UT2003 benchmarks I've found they give virtually identical results. Is this right? The only possible improvement is at 1600x1200, but I don't use...

Just watched the first hour of this and have to say that I am totally unconvinced by it. The launch started off as being about opening up the imagination and how 64 bit would do that, but then showed things like wireless div x players, digital media "improving" (but didn't show how), games having...

Group, ATI has got to be the fussiest,flakiest video card I've ever dealt with.If it weren't the only thing I could use at the moment I'd surely throw it out the window.I purchased the "upgrade" to MMC 8.5.Really big mistake.7.* worked somewhat ok before I tried to "upgrade",for possibly only a...

I reinstalled Catalyst drivers 4.2 for my ATI 9000 Pro video card recently. The drivers work ok, and the Control panel is there with all the tabs, except for Smartgart. I know you don't have to have it and sometimes it causes trouble, and I am not going out of my way to get it, but I had Smartgart...

How does your card do with Far Cry? I have a 9800 Pro and it seems to lag on pretty high settings. I did the autodetect thing. I wonder if only having 512MB RAM is the problem. This game seems to be a pig.

I have just ordered the following system: Intel Pentium 4 2.6Ghz (512K, 800mhz Bus) 1GB Ram DDR 400mhz, PC3200 200GB Western Digital Drive (7200rpm, 8MB Cache, 8.9ms) ATI All-In-Wonder 128 Radeon 9600 Video Card LG 52X CDRW LG 8X DVD/RW Creative Labs Sound Blaster Live (my current card)

you could do a search on nvidea in the registry, followed by a liberal deletion of everything nvidea. Delete nvidea components from the system32 folder. i would (and did) start with the CD drivers that came with the card. Then I went to the ATI website and DL'ed the current drivers. To bad Nvidea...

Half Life 2 "download" via Valve stream. Have you guys read about or signed up for this? From the description at: http://www.ati.com/gitg/promotions/hl2offer/steam.html it sounds like you sign up, but never actually get an independent functioning copy of the game. You just get a Valve...

The Nvidia Dawn demo looked supreme on my 9700Pro. Does anyone know if the Dusk (or any other) demo has been similarly patched to run on an ATI card? -- "I don't cheat to survive. I cheat to LIVE!!" - Alceryes
