Looking for a pair of OCZ reaper HPC DDR2 800 or higher for my brothers rig. 1gb or 2gb, doesnt matter, just a matched pair. He's got a q6600 @ 3.15ghz and 4gb ddr2 already, but I'm trying to help him maximize performance on a budget. He has a 1030, so I think more memory is really the limit...
Yeah not looking to break records. Just get him up and gaming in some sort of capacity. I have a spare 6 pin in the system, so would a 6 pin + molex to 8 pin adapter be ideal? The PSU has 3 12v rails @ 19a each. Multi rail psu's are foreign to me.
Edit: dual molex to 6 pin, then that plus...
Piecing together a PC for my little brother for school and picked up a like new condition Antec TruePower 650w power supply. Idk if it was ever actually used, because there was not a spec of dust inside it. Fan guards were nice and shiny. We got it hooked up, and realized that there are no...
Looking for a graphics card for my little bro's rig. Put in a 650w antec power supply, but doesnt have the extra 8 pin I need for the GTX480 I have on hand, so no POST :(. Possibly a matched pair of DDR2-800+ as well.
Do you remember what your temps were like? Also, mine is a G0 revision, which if I remember right was one of the more easily overclockable ones? Correct me if im wrong.
Well, turns out I solved my own problem. It was a bad overclock. I hadn't even considered pushing past 3.0ghz until I figured out what was going on, but said what the heck and tried it anyways. 3.195ghz, 355x9, 1.30vcore, 1.23 VTT. Memory overclocked to 1066mhz. Audio stutter in VLC went...
Ah that would make sense. Man, I dont want to reinstall again XD. I think i may have a Q8200 sitting around. Maybe I sold it. I know I have an old school E6750 though aha.
As far as I know, all settings were the same. Ive reset the cmos multiple times with the same method with no problems. Is there any setting in particular I should be looking for?
I wouldnt think its network related. Im on a hardwired 60mbps connection, and I live alone. I mean, I dont want...
So I have a q6600 I've been playing with in my system. Was running a mild overclock on air. 3.0ghz, 333x9, 1.28 vcore, memory at 966mhz I believe. Was stable but my temps were high. I was playing around with overclocks around the 3.2-3.3ghz range to no avail during this time as well. Threw...
I dont know if it was amd or not, but when i threw in a spare 8400gs, it was able to boot without bluescreen, but i think the card is bad from being banged around in a box for 2 years. The screen had gone plaid! (Spaceballs recrence). So yeah, that is why i am trying to find a card for...
Looking for a pci-e x16 video card for my girlfriends computer. Doesnt need to be anything special, but able t run like minecraft and other games like that. Thats what her brother likes to play on it. The onboard graphics went kaput.
so for right now i am looking for a AM2 mobo. the V-regs on my dads gigabyte board decided they were gonna overheat, warp the motherboard, and make everything stop working. so i am in the market for a new motherboard. I do not have much money to spend, but these boards are becoming obsolete...
Pc power and cooling silencer 750w.
I aggree that the proc is a limitation. Like I said, its starting to show in newer games. I've had the thing for nearly 3 years and it used to be a badass gaming machine. I guess it will hold me over for a couple more months.
So one more question. And...
So first off, here's my hardware:
Original antec 900 mid tower
Asrock or Asus ep35 mobo, skt 775
Intel e6750 clocked to 2.8ghz, no vmod, air
4gb ocz reaper hpc ddr2-800
GeForce GTX-280
1tb WD blue
DVD burner
So my question is, would it be worth it to upgrade? Or should I start new...
