    Help with my build please - no video?

    I bought a 2nd video card this morning, a PNY 7300 GS, and had the same results. So, is the general consensus the processor is at fault, or should I try swapping out the motherboard as well?

There are no beep codes or anything. The display...

    256 vs 512 MB ram - Worth the extra cost?

    Thanks for the responses. For the mystery 512 card, it was an erroneous discription Monarch had up for a bit on an eVGA KO Superclock. I did order one from them, but when you search by item number, it now shows up as the KO Superclock. At the time it said it was a new item, and as...
