    Question on GTX 460

    The 1GB version will perform better at higher resolutions. If like gaming at 1080p I would lean more towards the 1GB version.

    Hi there... REALLY NEED HELP :<

    Hi there, I'm pretty sure the PSU is fine because everything is getting power and it's a Corsair 520watt so it's not bad quality or anything. Just black screen, won't beep into BIOS... PC just sits there with all the fans running....

    Please help **Odd graphics card problem**

    I have an 8800GT, 2GB DD2 and an E2180 dual-core (slightly overclocked the CPU) and a P31 gigabyte motherboard. Whilst playing games I start to see artifacts (like TF2). I doubt it's a temperature problem as it's running around 60 - 80 degrees during gaming and that's fine. I have the...

    E7400 - Abit IP35-E HELP ME PLEASE WTF :D

    The thing is, the CPU fan is revving 100 percent all the time even the the CPU isn't stressed because the motherboard thinks it's running at 98dc. I'm pretty sure the CPU is fine, the motherboard needs a BIOS update to fully support the E7400 (but I'm not sure if this is going to happen because...

    E7400 - Abit IP35-E HELP ME PLEASE WTF :D

    Ok, really weird situation going on here: Installed E7400 with Freezer 7 Pro. Used thermal paste correctly. Installed the latest Abit bios (number 18). Booted... set all the standard voltages and speeds. Then rebooted to see if it went into Windows (you would expect it to, on stock)...

    E2160 vs. E7200 (Help)

    I'm considering updraging my E2160 (overclocked to 3.33 GHz from 1.8) to the new 45nm E7200 from intel - and I plan on doing as much overclocking as a can with it. The question is do you think it's a worthy upgrade and will I notice much of a speed difference? :confused: The rest of my rig...

    Asus 8800GT redesigned cooler - 0 degrees celcius?

    It seems the programs I use, rivatuner and NVIDIA monitor read my graphics card temperature as 0 degrees. But that's a bunch of BS of course. What could be wrong here? Didn't do this with my old 7600GT but I think the modified Asus cooler might be the reason. Read...

    Max-safe voltages

    Well I just ran orthos with a E2160 for about 20min (clocked at 3.42GHz from 1.8) and it didn't show any errors. But the temperature did raise to 70dc under 100percet load, is that bad? It's still 15dc away from the tjunction. What concerns me is will the lifespan of the components at these...

    Max-safe voltages

    What do you reckon is the max-safe Voltages I should set on an Air Cooled motherboard? I have the Abit Ip35-E motherboard with a 80mm fan blowing some parts of it.

    What isn't working? Please share with me your thoughts!!

    I overclocked an E2160 CPU from the default, 1.8GHz, to 3.42GHz using a VCore of just under 1.55 (I read somewhere this is the maximum you should go on air). The motherboard I used was the budget IP35-E from Abit. I also used 2GB of OCZ ram and dropped the timings from 4-5-5-15 to 4-4-4-12 and...

    What Is Wrong!?!

    Yea, so my PC is acting wierd, annoying at that. When I play games like Quake 4 sometimes my PC restarts, just instantly. No warnings or any type of 'blue screen of death', just restarts, literally instantly when I least expect it. Now I've checked my 3500+ and the temps are fine at about 39C...

    Hi there, anyone own an XFX video card? Help me out please...

    Well then, thanks for the help. I'm gona buy it then, I honestly think people complain about XFX because they dont think before hand on things like ventilation, compatability and so on. I think they put the blame on XFX rather than themselves, which I find very annoying. Again, thanks for the...

    Hi there, anyone own an XFX video card? Help me out please...

    That might be true but I buy most of my hardware from a site called overclockers.co.uk and that is the fastest, most expensive 7600GT I can find. I'm willing to pay for it but please warn me of anything. Its a highly overclocked card and thats what worries me. EDIT: This card offers a...
