hey guys,
Good to see people like kirbyrj still posting around. Initially i had a stuttering/lagging problem where steam would play fine for the first 40 seconds then lag like hell. By lagging, this isn't the internet problem- more like it would run fine for 3 seconds, then lag 3 seconds...
dual core optimizer, ati driver UPDATE did not work for me. (using old versions seem to be better)
winlauncherXP seems to work for war3; cs working normally, but getting FPS only about 30-50, averaging 40. i thought i would kill cs:s since its quite old, but apparently not. hmmph. The res is...
well got some good news and bad news. Good news is that i reformatted my comp and war3 works for about an hour on dota before it lags. CS:S also plays fine for about half an hour. Bad news is that the same problem comes up after an hour of war3. Im gonna try applying the dual core now and see...
Hi guys,
Just got a few questions to ask. i brought this mobo about a month ago and tried running some games which stutter. so i formated my hd and try a fresh install. i was browsing through the forums and found that i should update my bios to .3 versions or above, or something similiar. My...
dont know who makes the power supply. cant see the manufacturer name on it. seems like a home brand. hmmph. and i live outside the US, in australia. although the sticker at the back of the case only says 230V only.

So what do these numbers...
hi, thanks for that suggestion, i just tried it out and it still lags and stutters :(.
ATI has gotten back to me and has basically said that everything is fine with ati graphics card. i might have to return it and get a warranty on it if it doesnt work. The ati people said that i need to...
cool, thanks for that info.i'll probably buy a sound card and see if it effects the lag sluttering. Currently i am expericing lag stuttering in a few games such as sims 2, warcraft 3 and counterstrike source, but not in UT2004, AOE3, DS2. Do you know if the above mentioned games (aside from COD2...
sorry to have to ask more, but i am really noob at all this stuff... how do i check for what the ram numbers are and what the mobo numbers supposed to be?
What do you mean by specify the proper timings and voltages in my bios? do i need to do that for my mobo and ram? i just put everything together and installed the drivers without touching bios...
damn it, this really sucks, i really dont understand why only my computer does this, even with affinity set at 1. Why god why? am i destined to never been able to play cs and war3 properly?
Gabe3, thats whats happening to me. except you're lucky in getting it every few hours- mine is every 15 mins. Have you tried everything on the first page?
fuck.i brought my X2 3800+ for 430 in the beginning of the month. i should have waited another month before buying it, since i waited 2 years for a new comp anyway. damn it. could have halved the price and brought a better one instead. damn.
