Just caught another typo I made... My current video card is a 7950GT, not 7650... -_- I was really out of it yesterday. -- Not that anyone cares or whatever, but I pulled a muscle in my back a few days ago & I have a liver condition where I'm unable to take any kind of pain medication or...
mobo's sorta picky about memory & doesn't like the 2gb sticks, or else i would have just bought one of those. lol did see corsair's for $34 or $32 on newegg, but didn't want to risk anything going apeshiz on the computer, so just stuck with OCZ Platinum series PC 6400 like is already in there. i...
okay, here's what i'm thinking--- feel free to chime in, of course. :)
i bought a brand new set of memory just like what i have in the machine. costed me 51.95, shipped, from ebay.
i was thinking, since Danny mentioned the power supply.. here's one i found on newegg...
yeah. that's pretty much what i was thinking, but i didn't want to spend a lot of money on the thing, since it's so old... for $500-$600.00 i can get a new computer from Newegg or elsewhere that's better than this one. i just wanted something cheap that'd allow it to eek by for another year or...
1.) Nope.
2.) Bought it right before the Q-series stuff came out.. In fact, I recall buying it from someone that was upgrading to a Q something or other & I got a really good deal on it. It's a 0 stepping, if that's relevant to you in any regard.
3.) This is my alternate PC.. It's one...
Hiya :)
I've got to upgrade my old 2007 hunk-o-junk computer. :) (okay, so it isn't that bad!)
Here's the specs:
OCZ Modstream 650W PSU
2x1 GB OCZ Platinum DDR2 PC6400 RAM
500GB HDD (one is seagate & one's WD)
Intel Core 2 Duo e6600 Processor
NVidia 7950 GT video card
Asus P5B Deluxe...
I was just thinking- what about if we remove the monitor issue.. I'll just wait until next payday to get a better one, it's not that big of a deal right now, as I have been using the photographer's computer/monitors to help her with the photo stuff, so it's not really that important right this...
Thanks for the info. I can buy the computer now, I was just giving myself some time since some newer stuff is coming out soon, but it's not a big deal, now's as good of a time as ever. :)
Thank you for the monitor suggestion, too. :D
Hiya :)
I am in need of another computer. Any help you can offer on the build would be greatly appreciated!
1) What will you be doing with this PC? Gaming? Photoshop? Web browsing? etc
- I am a graphic designer & also work on photos and videos for commercials (just local stuff).. Basically...
Thank you for your help! :)
Ahhh I see! Thanks for explaining! :)
Nope, I don't have any media playback software. I guess I can research that. Thank you. :)
