    Gigabyte HD 7850 OC... unimpressed

    Was trying to futureproof myself as much as I could. No matter, I sold the card and purchased something else.

    Gigabyte HD 7850 OC... unimpressed

    Kinda was the absolute only reason I bought it over a HD7950.

    Gigabyte HD 7850 OC... unimpressed

    I'm aware that its factory OC'd. I'm also aware Gigabyte probably designed it to work at the speeds they incorporated. The cooler on it is the Windforce cooler and I dont think its a real issue as the cards runs extremely cool.

    Gigabyte HD 7850 OC... unimpressed

    Sorry to bump but I've figured out that gigabyte's design for the HD7850 is poorly prepared for overclocking compared to the reference design. For anyone looking for an HD 7850 look at other brands(Powercolor and Diamond seem to be overclocking beauties due to their exact reference replicas).

    I oc'd my i5 2550k to 4ghz on the stock cooler and hit 57-60 degrees under full load. You shouldnt need more than that imo unless you're a benchmark junkie

    MMORPGs Help in finding one!

    Lineage 2 is good, but costs money every month. There aren't many good ones, Tabula Rasa has an interesting concept, but gets rather boring fast. Your best bet is to just wait for Wrath of the Lich King and play WoW.

    TV Resolution Question (Help)

    You need a 1080P tv to display a 1080P resolution. Mind you though, that alot of Ps3 games are displayed in a max of 720p/1080i. Many of the games now come out on 1080P...it all depends on ify ou truly care. A 37" 1080P tv may/may not be worth buying, its truly up to whether you want to spend...

    Video Card vs. Onboard Graphics

    Generally onboard video is crap compared to an actual video card. Though ofcourse, some actual outdated video cards can be crappier than onboard on newer motherboards.

    Is this a good deal?

    Its a pretty decent deal, the 8800GTS is slighty outdated but for $100 for ea part, thats a steal!
