    8gb DDR2 or 4gb DDR3?

    I have the exact same board as you. Same revision number too. I went with the F12 BIOS. Used the little online utility to do it. Easy peasy.

    8gb DDR2 or 4gb DDR3?

    I tried Robstar's suggestion. I went to Fry's and bought 2x4gb of DDR 1333 by Patriot for $45. I figured I could always return it if it didnt work out. Well i put them both in the DDR3 slots and the BIOS booted up but it kept hanging on the "Windows is starting up screen." So I took one stick...

    How do you use "once per day ability" in Skyrim?

    Like I rolled an Altmer and he has the Highborn ability. But I don't know how to use it. I can't equip it in one of my hands like the other spells so what do I do to actually use it?

    8gb DDR2 or 4gb DDR3?

    Thanks, my motherboard is the Gigabyte GA-P35C-DS3R rev 1.1 The manual says it supports 4gigs of DDR3 at 1333 (2 slots) or 8 gigs of DDR2 1066 (4 slots). Take price out of the factor. Which is better for performance. 8gigs of slower ram or 4 gigs of faster ram?

    8gb DDR2 or 4gb DDR3?

    Hi all, been awhile since I bought components. So I got one of those Gigabyte motherboards that supports either 8gb of DDR2 or 4gb of DDR3. I currently have 4gbDDR2 and want to upgrade. I do not want to purchase a new motherboard at this time. So which would give me more frames per second...

    Worth it to upgrade from an 8800gts 512 to 5770?

    Its a Gigabyte P35C-DS3R Judging from the replies so far I guess I should try to OC my video card and processor and hold onto my money? Sounds like everybody is saying 5770 is good but not THAT good to warrant the purchase.

    Worth it to upgrade from an 8800gts 512 to 5770?

    Hi there. I only play one game currently, Aion. I dont plan on playing anything else for a while. Last night I bumped up the resolution to 1920X1080 with 8x AA and all features turned on and REALLY liked how it looked but frame was a bit laggy in the cities and I didnt even try the Abyss yet. So...

    Now that the shiny newness is gone how is Aion?

    I just recently saw the Aion "Vision" Trailer. Unforutunately I read that the content shown in the trailer are not part of any particular patch or expansion and are just a peek into the way the developers want to go. So basically its a plea of "Please dont leave us! We promise this game will get...

    Update: I went to the interview. I passed the little entrance test on basic networking terminology and the interview went well. However, when I found out that they started you off at 8 dollars an hour I told them that I couldnt afford to drive from Hutto down to South Austin for 8 dollars an...

    I dont know much about this stuff as I am just barely starting out. I have NO certs whatsoever and have been looking through alot of entry level IT job listings here in Austin.

    My company is paying for me to take newtorking classes! (now what do I study?)

    That sounds like a great idea! Except it says:"Prerequisites: A+ & Network+ certification or equivalent knowledge of computers and operating systems." So I guess I need to get those out of the way first which I knew I had to. But heck yeah I can maybe take those courses during the summer or...

    Age of Conan: Getting Better or Worse?

    I bought it on launch day played it for a month and a half and cancelled my subscription. Of the WOW type games I think AOC is the best. I just dont think I like the boring quest get exp/loot wash rinse repeat format in games like WOW, LOTRO, and AOC. I much prefer playing EVE.
