My guess is the adaptive mode isn't as effective at dynamically adjusting power modes and NVIDIA's offering full power as a new alternative. I'm tempted to run some benches and see if there's any difference.

I don't think they'd provide this feature unless they had a reason.

Actually you can also set it per app, so you can have individual power profiles for each game.

That's a nice price!

When you get a chance, I'd recommend upgrading from that Intel Smackover mobo. It's BIOS layout is terrible and isn't as powerful as the Taiwanese mobo manufacturers. As I'm sure you know, it's also only got 4 DIMMs.

Thanks for the correction, I guess I should've stuck with my first instinct, which was the Gigabyte GA-MA770T-UD3P I reviewed a few weeks ago.

The tests were run under WinXP, but audio over HDMI isn't supported in Vista.

LOL, we dont have a way to track how many new registrations, but I'd bet it's higher than that. Probably 170-180.

Keep in mind that BioWare is referring to story-driven games. So that would exclude titles like Sims and Portal.

Agreed. Everytime I spoke with MSFT I begged and pleaded for this feature for my HTPC as well. But they made it clear that they couldn't add support for DIY'ers due to legal reasons with the cable providers. This was discussed ahead of the Vista launch as well.

It's pretty similar to Vista. Ultimate is useless now though unless you need bitlocker.

Quick suggestion: login to your FS account and turn off the profanity filter. By default it's set to "enabled".

Yes, there are gaps. The cooler isn't completely enclosed. So some air does escape out the sides into your case.

They're both AM3 parts. All Phenom II's going forward are going to be AM3-based.

Keep in mind that AM3 CPUs are backward compatible with older AM2+ mobos. All you usually need is a BIOS update.

I don't have a review of that particular HIS card planned, but the first reviews of factory OC'ed 4890 cards should go up next month.

The label on that page is incorrect. As the graphs show, the settings were "medium", not high.
