            Nice video card! I can't wait to get a 7800 GT OC in AGP for my Athlon 64 system.

            My new laptop's pretty nice, and will hold me over for a while:
            Dell Inspiron E1705
            Intel CORE Solo T1300
            1GB DDR2 RAM
            100GB 5400RPM HDD
            nVidia GeForce Go 7800 256MB PCI-e x16
            USB TV Tuner
            Windows Media Center 2005
            Dual Layer DVD Burner
            17" WUXGA TrueLife screen (1920x1200 native resolution)
            etc etc etc

            Plays BF2 at 1600x1200 medium setting perfectly. :D Needs another GB of RAM to make sure there's absolutely no lag on the more elaborate maps. CoD2 and everything else I've loaded up plays great. I love this laptop. [img]smile.gif[/img]

              You might want to get slot covers for those empty slots...that way your air will circulate better in your case.

                I put one of those on my 7800GTX, but it still won't overclock worth a crap. Only problem I have with it is the stickiness of the thermal pads. Arctic Cooling just sent me a new set of them to put on though, for free, because their site was screwed up.

                Nikon how can you hate the 3800+?? I love mine, it goes to 2.5GHz no sweat.

                    I no longer spend money on computer stuff, since it's all obsolete in 6 months.

                    I used to be an avid overclocker back in the day. I used to have a Radeon 64MB special edition that I got a nice 35% overclock on. It was as fast at the best Geforce 2 Ultra at the time ($400) card. w00t.

                        Geeze man, over half a pound sitting on your card. That's a heavy heat sink

                          At the end of Part Three, we changed the valvetrain of the 3.8-liter V6 in the Tom Henry RS. We installed new, Yella Terra "Ultralite" 1.8:1, aluminum roller rocker arms, Katech valve springs and Katech titanium retainers on our 3800 Series II V6.
                          Ultralites are nearly 25% lighter than the stock 1.6 rockers and 8% lighter than the SLP aluminum...
