I have been going to gamespot for over 8 years. The new layout is sooooo bad, I almost don't want to come here anymore. It makes me sick inside, I cannot believe what has been done. It is just horrible PLEASE CHANGE IT BACK!

I recently purchased the Samsung 943BWX monitor off of tigerdirect.com, mainly because of the increased contrast and DVI input. They included a DVI cable with the monitor but I am not sure if it is the right kind to make the picture look best. I think they may have given me a DVI-I cable, would I need a DVI-D cable to make the monitor look best? Or is a DVI-I cable kind of the same thing. It is just I have always had VGA cables and cannot tell what things should look like. Any help would be much appreciated.

So I have an AMD Phenom 9850 4 gigs of ram, segate barracuda hdd 32 mb cahce, 64 bit vista home premium, antec quattor 850 watt power supply and finally a 9800GTX KO edition. Ohh and I play games at 1440x900 resolution.

The question is do I step up or not. I paid 209 dollars so for around 100 I can get the new GTX 260 with 16 more shaders or for ten more i can get a 9800GX2. Is it worth the money? As many suggestions as possible would be great.

So I built my first computer early this July, specs below, and the video card I bought was a EVGA 9800GTX KO edition off of Tigerdirect for $209 or so. However I have like 25 days on my stepup thing and I am wondering if it is really worth it. I mean I can run most games well but I do not want to pass up a good oppurtunity. Right now I would have to pay around 80-90 dollars to step up to a GTX 260 or I could pay a 100 and get a 9800GX2, but I have heard those have problems because they are just two cards stacked togehter and do not work for some games. Also am I gonna get that big an FPS boost really? I am a fan of AA and AF but my monitor is a 19 inch samsung that only supports 1440x900. Any help would be great.

I have a AMD Phenom 9850.. I got it before they messed up the overclocking , I think it is like a black or unlocked edtion, so I got it before the 9950, then I have 4 gigs of DDR2 800 ram, Vista Home Premium 64 bit, Antec p180 case with 850 watt quattro antec power supply, and a 32mb cache 7200 rpm Seagate Barracuda Hdd, and a xtreme gamer fatality card.

I have anAMD Athlon 3700+, 2GB of PC 3200 ram, 250 GB hardrive 7200 RPM 16mb cache, Sound Blaster Live 24 bit, DVD RW 16x, and a 256 mb 7800 GT

Commander Keen, We had it for my old 386 and damn that game was fun. I also liked playing Kings Bounty if any of you remember that.
