thank you for your input tiraides. to answer your questions i dont NEED necessarily, but i happen to have one sitting 3 feet from me right now. i guess i neglected to mention that, my bad. i do understand it is overkill and wont provide much benefit for gaming over the 2500k, im ok with that...

as the title says i could use a little help picking out a video card. this computer will be used for gaming and some DAW recording. still need a hdd too so suggestions welcome there as well (or anywhere else for that matter) :) my build sofar: i7 2600k Cooler Master RR-B10-212P-G1 Hyper 212...

looks like i'll be waiting a little longer then. while part of me doesnt want to, i know it will be for the best as this will give me time to do a little more homework. i also figure that if i spread out my purchases over a month and a half or so it will give me more wiggle room with my budget...

makes sense. looks like i might have to bump up the budget a little bit because the more i think about it, its much more likely i'll go this route yes, i'd like to be up and running by new years day at the very latest its not so much a software issue, more of a hardware thing. the current midi...

as the title says this is my first build in a little over 5 years. i've been doing some research the past couple days but with some of the newer technology im still feeling a little out of the loop any suggestions would really be appreciated :) 1) What will you be doing with this PC...

okay so i recently reinstalled xp and now my usb drive (WD1200B008-RNN) is not working. yes i installed all the usb drivers and other usb devices are working fine. device manager shows it under disk drives and claims "This device is working properly", and it is also shown under the usb...

thanks for the input. yea i figured going back to win2k would work, but after having everything set up for a while its kind of a pain to reintall and set up everything again. i didnt want to buy another card if i didnt have to cause this comp is quite old as it is, rather spend the money on...

i recenly upgraded one of my old systems from win2k to XP. it is an older system, but still had no problem running some older games like diablo2 and counterstrike. since i installed xp it has not been as smooth at all. i got the drivers from http://www.voodoofiles.com/ which i remember used to...

yea they were well i talked to a friend an he said it sounded like a typical case of drawing too much power from the cpu. i went ahead and switched it out with an antec true control 550w and im having no problems now at all. played some games and ran 3dmark and got no artifacts whatsoever, so...

so i've been having comp problems for the past few days and it keeps getting worse. i narrowed it down to the psu, mobo or vid card (been having alot of crazy disco artifacts). i needed a new psu anyway so i got a new one along with a new video card (needed a new one too). i just now went to...
