~El~Jefe~ wrote:It's all the same thing. Better question to ask is which ones are tested by your manufacturer? I use those first.

At this moment, afaik all manufacturers are using "hacked" drivers. That's the reason I asked.

The 4770 is still not listed at the AMD/ATI driver page : http://support.amd.com/us/gpudownload/Pages/index.aspx .

How much of a diff would "proper" drivers make ?

I remember reading a thread here ( or at AnandTech ) where a forum member had asked if DVI is really better than VGA. Another member had replied with a specific example to demonstrate that DVI was better. I think it was a image with alternating white and black lines. Can someone please point me to t...

Wish SPC would do a article with details. The more I think of it, the more confused I get.

Also, isn't it time manufacturers informed customers whether a graphics card provided fan control or not.

Noob question I'm sure. Getting confused. Where or how is fan speed control implemented in modern PCs - mobo, graphics card or the HSF on the graphics card ? Also how do software programs control the speed. If someone could explain, would help many of us I'm sure. btw : Origin of this doubt - wanted...

Thanks a lot, could not find this info anywhere else.

Is the total power available from the AGP slot = approx 45W ? ( not counting the external connectors ).

The PCI slots (mostly) use the 5V rail, right ?

Can someone please tell me which of the PSU rails supplies power to the AGP slot. For the PCI-E slot this is what I found : The PCI-E Version 1.0 slot provides two voltages from the motherboard, 3.3V and 12V. You can have up to 3A on the 3.3V rail and up to 5.5A on the 12V rail. Combined thats 9.9W ...
