    I don't think my M6Ne produces a similar "sparkle" effect.. so it's still difficult to picture. I guess I have to see it to believe it [|)]

    By the way....

    GPU @ 300 / 580 using XtremeG's nVidia 76.41 driver

    3DMark05: 2210!!!!

    This is about what Acer 8100 X700 output..heehhe

    From my understanding the GPU in the Asus Z71V is somewhat underclocked as the spec from nVidia said the GPU should be @ 400ish core and Asus Z71V is at 250ish....

    Been using in EQ2 for 24 hours. Sheer performance baby! But then again, at stock setting the performance rocks too...

    I burned a dvd (4x dvd-r) lastnight at it took 30 minutes, my 2x drive on my desktop does it in this time, shouldn't it be burning it within 15minutes? What drivers did you use for the dvd player, copytodvd (What I used to burn lastnight) doesnt list my burner under devices, so I wonder if there is a driver issue or something? However in device manager it lists the dvd/rw drive. Also do you use Asus dvd player software or something like Power DVD, etc.?

    Anybody having trouble with the resolution, download the 76.44 drivers from guru and use the 1280x800 resolution, it works really well.

    I noticed that when running PowerGear utility, that I get a low level "squeal" from the Z71. If I change to any other power scheme, the squeal goes away.

    Thoughts?

    How Can A Person as great as I be so humble?
