Tried using DVI ---adapter --> RGB tested with excelent PQ with no text distorted
Tried using DVI ---adapter--> HDMI tested with test distorted but movies okie
3RCA did not test coz the cable provided in the box is not long enough.

tweek the refresh rate/ resolution settings to lower size looks ugly with big icons/ downloaded latest driver no luck too
How do i connect DVI directly to LCD? coz my LCD only comes with Component input and HDMI....
Advise? 
Yeah, DVI to HDMI adapter (Brand New Cable)

Could it be, what nVidia claimed that HDMI/HDCP supported means it only support in connecting your CPU to LCD just to watch movies only...  

I bet some of us here using CPU --> LCD to enjoy to larger viewing satisfaction    but no problems for your text distortion or picture shaded? 

Nvidia gc cannot support 1080p cos the HDMI is just a conversion of DVI. It just a marketing gimmic. HDMI enable not 1080p enable. Furthemore you cannot boot using HDMI port in GTX295.

240 sp.so it seems its not an overclocked version of 260

Planning to change to Green Camp. Currently using HD4870 512MB and planning to replace it with Palit GTX260 216 Sonic (OCed). So do you guys think it's worth it or not. Or should I just wait for GTX 275 or Gainward GTX285 custom cooled (with 4 heat pipes) 1GB version. I prefer the latter but I don't have any idea about the price and its availability in our country and hence stopped thinking about it for a while.

So Sifus.. really need your help here.

come to light force always la 
hope to get GTX260+ reference at rm650

if the card is to compete hd4890, the price seems to be around 1xxx~12xx..

very funny

duh, I dont know why you guys keep say nvidia cheats ?
when ? just renaming, nvidia never claim theres an advantage over his own 9800gtx+ , so when you bougt GTS250 instead older 9800gtx+ model. go ahead.

Haha..you should follow the epic story of HardOCP before gts250 released

lol.
8800GT can flash to 9800GT and GTS240  ( IF )
dont care about news/story as long as the performance stays.

Okay then, no point overclocking it.

Be wary of the size of this cooler:

Artic Cooling Xtreme Cooler for GTX280 / GTX285

I just purchased the entire set of my PC last night.

Thanks to this cooler, I can't use any mid-tower casing except the CM R690 and the Silverstone's Raven.

However, most of the full tower casing will be able to accommodate this cooler thus far I know of.

*I have tried the Silverstone Fortress and this cooler can't even be slot into that casing.

As such, before purchasing this cooler or GPU that comes with it, it is advisable to check the size of your casing.

  else ive to get CM690 ? 

How about CM590? Safe is it?

btw boss,wanna ask stupid question...ur GTX295 the skru is karat or memang tat color?

I can't imagine going Tri SLI with stock coolers.

I reckon it is too hot with just two of them using stock coolers.

Maybe the GPU makers should stop designing cards that runs 70-80 celsius @ load.

GTX285 sure beat it for sure...Nvidia won't so stupid until make that mistake.....LOL
