My budget is $800 now, what kind of monster can you guys come up with? :)

Ohh, so youre saying I shouldnt get the 660 just because the CPU has an extra 100MHz. It isnt worth it. And Ill have the power cord plugged in when Im gaming. Im getting a laptop cause of its small size and portability. EDIT: by "run out of power" do you mean battery life or the ability to...

So which laptop for greatest FPS?

Yea thats what I meant, the CPU on the 660 has a max clock of 3.3GHz. Using afterburner will definitely increase GPU performance.

If you look under the 660's specs, it says: "6MB L3 Cache Max Turbo Frequency 3.3 GHz." Gaming laptops usually have some kind of OC software built in, the 660 does. Theres only like a 2% difference in performance for the 660 and the 570, so Id rather choose the 660 due to the better CPU.

Oh, right. So youre saying go with the 660 because the processor is better? I'll be OCing the CPU and GPU, and the 660's CPU goes up to 3.3 GHz, so maybe the 660 is a better choice; UNLESS the 570's CPU can match that clock or surpass it.

100mhz? What card are you referring to? I dont care about extending battery life, I want more performance even if its only a little bit more. If I want more performance is the 570 the better choice?

Do you think the GE70's CPU will actually give me a higher FPS? Or will the 570 give me a better framerate regardless of the different CPU's?

So I'm looking at these two laptops and I can't decide which one will be better for BF3. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152348 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16834152293 The price difference isn't a factor, I'm just not sure what laptop...

Thanks for that. I've always been an intel and nvidia guy, but since Im on a budget it doesnt really matter. If I can save some money and still get great performance that is awesome. Beggers cant be choosers :p. And the price is what I was expecting. Its hard to build a rig to handle a game...

Hi everyone, I've got a budget of about $500 and I'd like to build a rig that can handle BF3 on ultra settings. Ill be overclocking the video card and the CPU. I'd like to see what builds you guys come up with. I want to buy it all from newegg, so get the parts from there. I definitely want an...

To make a long story short, I'm at my grandparents right now, and I've got a wireless network adapter for my 360 to get on live, and my grandpa has a router for me to plug into, when I go to my xbox and try to connect it, it asks for my WEP network key, I have been told I can get this by going...

Turn off your computer, open it up, take out the old video card, put the new one in, boot up, install the drivers, restart, and you're ready to go.

How and what is reconfiguring my CMOS? I went into my BIOS, selected enable instead of automatic, booted up, installed the latest drivers, and still no sound. There is a device called Realtek Digital Output, and it shows the volume (like it goes up when sound is playing on the computer, if I...

Alright, thanks for that info. I'll try that out now.

It's onboard sound. The PC was shutting down while I was removing the video card, I must've thought it was shutdown all of the way when it still was on. Here are my PC specs: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01220842&lc=en&cc=ca&dlc=en&product=3633809&lang=en EDIT: I...

Ok, I was removing and old video card from my computer, and I didn't know I still had some static in my body (I had touched ground first), and basically my computer shutdown and wouldn't start up. After investigation I found out that a little red button needed to be moved, so I moved it back...

I put my video card in, changed it back to PCI, rebooted, and tried running that driver software and it told me this: "The NVIDIA Setup program could not locate any drivers that are compatible with your current hardware. Setup will now exit." Unless someone knows a fix for this, I'm done with...

Thanks StrangleHold, I'll try to figure this out one more time.

I spent an hour trying to figure it out... And it seems that the problem is it just doesn't want to work. This computer isn't designed to be run or have the option to be run on a PCI video card, and the video card isn't even supported for vista. I changed the BIOS settings from integrated to...
