@HoLLYWOOD681 thanks for getting back to me so fast Hollywood the rest of my specs are Noctua NH-D14. ASRock Z68 Extreme7 Gen3. XFX HD-697A-CNFC HD 6970 2GB. G.SKILL Ripjaws X Series 16GB 1600. Corsair GT 180gb SSD. Cooler master pro 1000 watt psu and a HAF X nothing seems to be malfunctioning or hot all temps in the 30c or lower my 3dmark11 and Heaven DX11 Benchmark is better than others I've seen on here with similar setups, It just doesn't make any sense I'm stumped lol
@MrBatman2383 You aren't the only one. It doesn't make sense. That is an amazing setup. The only thing I can safely assume is it's your internet since you said that it doesn't start getting better after seven teammates dropped out, so that's the only thing I have to assume. Do you have wireless, that wight be the problem
@joshuaox8 if you use the computer just for gaming take ati and if you use your computer not just for gaming like video editing take nvidia
@STRIPELESSZEBRA1 if you have a lot of money take it.and one gtx 580 can max games out without a problem
@HoLLYWOOD681 actually I meant to tell u that it's not an online skirmish its me vs the AI also I talk to XFX tonight and he told me that since this game only uses 1 or 2 cores the AI with so many units maybe to much the cpu to take or theirs no update since 08 it cant use the power of the cpu effectively I also talk to Evga said he don't think theirs no bottleneck he said to try maybe xp mode or older card drivers since its an older game havent got to test it see whos right lol
@MrBatman2383 That was my next guess. Drivers. If you really like that game, you might want to switch back and forth between drivers (which is a pain in the ass) I highly doubt that it's your processor, but you never told me your processor. Either way, this shouldn't happen.
@joshuaox8 you came at world today -__-
@HoLLYWOOD681 hey Hollywood sorry it took so long to respond maybe Too Much Info but I had a about 4-5 stitches tare out no fun lol (after it stops hurting) anyways the processor is a 2600k @4.7 still haven't get a chance to try anything new drivers and I didn't have xp mode installed to try it more room off my SSD lol so I'll gingerly get up so I don't tare anything lol cause its going to irritate me till I find out even if there's nothing I can do I just want to know lol why
@MrBatman2383 The Drivers. I take that you are running Windows 7. Try out the drivers. The most recent one is the 11.12 version. Upgrade and tell me how it goes. Command and Conquer is an old game though.
im kind of a computer nerd so yeah, when u do the gtx 580 sli do they both run on 8x or 16x.?
im kind of a beginner in these stuff but if u use SLI do they both run on 8x or 16x.?
Bit of a noob in terms of SLI and crossfire. I own an SAPPHIRE ATI READON 6950 2GB Could I croosfire/sli it with another lower end card?
which one is better, single gtx 580 or amd radeon hd 6950 crossfire?
@plutoguerra 6950
@GamingBoozer no. cards must be the same chipset to do SLI
@GamingBoozer you need matching cards
i didn't know linus was a noob-tuber
@GamingBoozer N0ob!

Helloo this should be a great performance for video cards
. Do you mind of making a vid about AMD shared memory cards and Intel ones or message me with any details especially about gaming!? I don't know anything and if there are other requests about them and if its possible for you why not make a vid comparing these two components, comparing the specs of each? 
Thanks in advance and a happy new year.
@GamingBoozer No you can't do Crossfire X whit a lower or higher card it must be the same GPU and you can't do SLI whit a ATI card SLI can only be done whit Nvidia cards.
@plutoguerra you should ask Linus, I'm guessing his reply would be unbiased
@MrOne3ye he doesnt keep the cards, this is his job…
NICE!! can you make me a Pc ?
@MrOne3ye Spoiled?! He owns a fucking PC company!
