I will take paypal or bitcoin. I have heat under redlava (2-0) and ebay under bluez33z (25-0).
Athlon II am3 quad core x640 3.0ghz, $60 shipped.
FYI, this processor can be used in some older am2/am2+ motherboards.
ddr2, 800, 2x1gb crucial and 2x1gb of Gskill, $20 per set shipped...
As someone who just installed an 840 pro a little over a week ago, this is a little disheartening. Would it be worth it to return the 840 and get the 850? I see the bench mark differences but do these translate to performance benefits in real world applications?
The only way I see this as possible with roommate is water cooling put it all in one case so no one can complain. This way it doesn't look like your creating a server room. Mining with 1 or 2 290s should be pretty quiet with water cooling. Just get a BIG radiator. This will create less work for...
You need to have more system memory than the most on a single vid card. My old am2 system had 4gigs of ram a 7950 worked perfectly however the 290 had errors when I installed it. I changed to 8gigs of memory and the errors went away.
I believe there are two different types of memory installed on the 290x. I would be interested to see if one of the two gigabyte cards has different memory than the other.
I had the same psu with an amd 640 x4(not OCd), 4 case fans, 1hd, and a gtx 480. From the heat you could tell the psu was working hard but I never had an issue. Just a data point for you to compare to.
I am trying to install farcry 1. When I get to the third disc it gets part of the way through installing and then claims it can not find a file. The disc looks near perfect but there are some spots that are pitted. I already tried having the disc sanded and polished, what other options do I...
artic cooling 64 is what I used got it from newegg for like 25 bucks. I have my brisbane at 280x10 at 1.375vmax load temp is 50 C. The stock head sink was getting close 60's with 250x10.
I was able to get the cpu up to 250x10.5 on stock vcore. This got rid of the slow downs and I was able to run 2xaa and 8xaf. I really need to get a better cpu cooler because I was able to get the cpu up to 300x10 with only a slight voltage increase but the temps were getting to high. I am...
Well I am in the process of ocing the processor, currently at 2310. Hopefully I will be able to get 2.7-2.8 on this brisbane. I also got a 64bit vista through my school today, so once I finish ocing I will try reformating again with vista instead of xp pro. Will a 64 bit os make a difference...
I just reformated when I got the card. If gpuz says the clocks are 667 and 700, but 3dmark after I finish running it says the clocks are 338 and 300 which one is correct?
just tried running it on application controlled and got a score of 6500 not much better. I tried running tf2 with no aa and no af and it is still going into the 30's.
I mean the fx5900nu I had was a able to play medium at 800x600. Now you telling me this new card can only do 1280x1024 on high...
I recently built a new system, and I am having what I am thinking is bad performance. For example I saw a review that said you can get 80 fps when you have a res of 1280x1024 with 16x af and 4x aa in team fortress 2. Where as my set up is having a hard time getting only 20-30 fps in a fire fight...
I recently reformatted and am trying to install far cry. The installer gets stopped on the level.pak on the third disc. The installer claims it can not find the file, but when I look for it in the folder, it is there. Is there a way I can download this file, and insert it into the correct folder?
Thanks I was trying to play it at my girl friends house on both of her stand alone DVD players, and also did not work on her laptop. Then when I tried to play the movie on my DVD player threw my TV the sound worked it was very strange.
I bought the movie leon the professional around a year ago and it played fine with sound. I pulled out the DVD today and it played but didnt have any sound. I tried playing the movie in three different DVD players but all had the same result. Is there anything I can do to fix this and what...
i would like to use tictac's bios to flash my nf7 version 2 to get more stable higher overclocks is this true? I have been looking into these different versions of tictac's bios and i see there are many different versions such as manta ray, subzero, and 3d-fire what are the differences between...
well i had one it was not very stable and i had a 2.1 rev., which was supposed to stable. :rolleyes:. It would boot with certin OC's and then not boot with the exact same settings later. Then the board fried during a mild OC but i ended up getting an abit nf7 much better board, then the epox. I...
