    Can you help my rig?

    Hmmm, multi player stuff runs fine, I wonder if my optical drive is crapping out. Is there a good way to test those?

    Can you help my rig?

    I upgraded my PSU to a PC Power & Cooling 750w w/ 60a on the single 12v rail. I also added another 2Gig for total of 4 now of memory. I STILL get halts and crappy performance on games like COD4 single player. I just don't know what else the issue could be. Any ideas????

    New Build

    I have that exact mobo ECS GF8200a and a phenom x3 8600 If I had it to do over again, I would go w/ a different board. It does have some nice features, but I am having some kinks having to work out yet, not sure what the source is. Spend a few more bucks and get a little better board with...

    Probably a dumb idea, but...

    has anyone ever used one of these as a case? Seems like proper air flow is going to be a problem, but like the idea of a pc in a mini-fridg :p Do you know of anyone who's tried this? Results?

    Can you help my rig?

    Thanks for the good tips! I am going to upgrade psu to one w/ better 12v amp output and dedicated 6pin pce plug to see if that helps. I am beginning to wonder about the mobo. Re earlier question, it occassionally hangs in cod2 also (DX9) (esp single player!). And yes Vista is all up to date.Also...

    Can you help my rig?

    Just read this on another thread: "When you are getting crappy performance and reducing the visual settings help, you need a new GPU. When reducing the visual settings doesn't help you either need a new cpu or the game is very poorly optimized" Could it be my X3 8600 is the problem? It is...

    Does HardForum support iSpy?

    Can you help my rig?

    Acer x223 22" LCD at its native 1680x1050 (also setting in the game), I have tried lower rez but not good results. Should the 9800 GTX+ handle that without raising a sweat? I heard somewhere to try native rez if u were having probs. Thanks

    Can you help my rig?

    I built this rig on a budget hoping to get a systm w/ decent speed and would run newer DX9/DX10 games at decent fr's but it will barely run cod4 with aa turned off and almost all the eye candy turned off. It gets good frs for a few seconds and the halts for a few then cycles again. Ran 3Dmark06...
