Basically I want to know if two Nvidia Geforce 7600 GS 512MB DDR3 video cards combined with an Asus P5N-SLI Nvidia Nforce 570 SLI MCP w/ 1066mhz FSB will work better than just one Nvidia Geforce 7950 GT 512MB video card with an Asus P5N-SLI Nvidia Nforce 570 SLI MCP w/ 1066mhz FSB?
Which combination will be most effective for graphics?

I have tried several different speed tests and never got that high. Of course I have shut down all other programs and sometimes put two or more programs on to ensure that both cores were being counted. Sometimes it is as low as 1G<. Other times it exceeds 2G, but very, very rarely. Any ideas?

Hi ,I just bought a Antec smart power supply 500 watt fan for my pc...all was fine for 3 days then my system started to become unstable with my CD burner trying to start up by itself and then it would freeze my pc up...i returned my pc back to the computer store to fine out what is the problem since i feel it has to do with that new fan...the old fan i use to have was only a 350 watt....well the computer store is trying to blame what happen on my electricity...which i cannot understand how since i never had a problem before nor do i have any other problems with anything else the room that my pc is plugged in ...i have checked to see what all is on the breaker for my room and it is just lights and my tv...so what i would like to know is how much does a 500 watt draw for usuage and if there is more usage being over drawn on a breaker wouldnt this blow first? rather then my burner trying to start up on my pc?.please if anyone has any suggestions to this mystery..Thanks..

I bought a laptop about a month ago on E-bay and it was working fine. The battery didn't hold much of a charge but it came with the ac/dc adaptor to plug it in so it was fine. Now, when I plug in the adaptor, it is still running off of the battery. I checked the adaptor and the light is on to indicate that it is plugged in and on so I'm assuming the problem is in the laptop where the adaptor plugs in. Is there anything that can be done about that? Do I have to have the adaptor to charge the battery? Thanks!
