    Any bottle necks if I get GTX285/295?

    ^^That is correct.

    Any bottle necks if I get GTX285/295?

    The 275 looks to be averaging about $100 cheaper than the 285 so it's definitely worth it to me to go for the 275 right now. 650w should be good for a 275, correct?

    Any difference; 4x1gb or 2x2gb

    Sounds good, I'll look into a set of OCZ 2x2gb

    Any difference; 4x1gb or 2x2gb

    I currently have 2x1gb of OCZ Reaper HPC ddr2-800. I'm looking to add 2gb more. Is there any disadvantage in keeping the Reapers and getting two more 1gb ddr2-800's, or is it better to replace my current dimm's with two 2gb's?

    Any bottle necks if I get GTX285/295?

    Good to know, thanks for the info everyone, I'm looking into the BFG 275 right now. Actually I just bought GTA IV and couldn't believe how much it brought the rig to its knees. I also play a lot of FSX which also seems to be highly CPU-bound. Crysis runs very well though. I'll look into...

    Any bottle necks if I get GTX285/295?

    Currently my rig is as follows: CPU: Q6600 G0 @ 3.2ghz w/Zalman cooler MB: ASUS P5Q Pro RAM: 2GB OCZ Reaper DDR2 800mhz GPU: EVGA 8800 GTX PSU: Antec NeoPower 650w OS: Windows XP 32bit Sound: X-FI Xtreme Music If I upgraded to a GTX 285 or 295, should I upgrade anything...

    Similar replacement for P5N32?

    I have a P5N32-sli premium currently that I blame for my PC's lack of POSTing. It wouldn't POST with just the PSU/CPU/RAM, and I hear that the Q6600 is probably not the culprit. Tested RAM and it's fine. No overclocking either since I build it 1.5 year ago. Before it wouldn't post, it would...

    PSU causing issue or something else?

    I looked elsewhere and found that a wireless LAN card could cause issues. I discovered that in addition to my Linksys card, my P5N32 mobo had one that I never even noticed. I took it out and noticed some immediate performance gains but it finally froze again a day later. Then I moved the hdd...

    PSU causing issue or something else?

    I will try that stuff. Are the above temps something to be concerned about though?

    PSU causing issue or something else?

    It just froze on me again and this time I noticed it did so right after the heat came on through the vent in the room. So I restarted it immediately and noticed in Everest that the temps were really high: And as I type this the mobo is at 41 and everything else up a few degrees from that...

    PSU causing issue or something else?

    I'm surprised it does get that hot being that its the Thermaltake Armor case with a ton of fans, including the huge 250mm side fan. And this is at idle... That's good to know though about the PSU temp. No, the monitor freezes where it last was. The only indication that it freezes is that the...

    PSU causing issue or something else?

    I can't tell. It doesn't feel like there's very much air at all coming out of the PSU. My old OCZ 520w had two small fans and blew a lot of air out compared to this one. This is my first PSU with just the one big fan so I'm not sure if that's normal or not. I don't notice the PSU fan spinning...

    PSU causing issue or something else?

    I've had my PC for about a year and lately it has been freezing quite often during low workloads, randomly 4-5 times a day. Sometimes it freezes right after startup or sometimes it's on for a few hours. It happens while browsing the web or doing a virus scan, or even when it's idling. It doesn't...

    Random freezing on new build

    I'm having the same problems as you with the freezing, with similar specs but with XP. Other programs also tend to take a very long time to open that wouldn't have in my previous build. I heard about RAM being a possible culprit so I ran memtest86+ and it froze 3 hours into the scan, huge...
