Corsair's not great for OCing anyway, OCZ and Crucial tend to be better.
It's not that much cheaper, just the US dollar is worth more than an Aussie dollar or Canadian dollar. (not sure where you're from)
Now you can!
Graphics cards can handle much more heat then CPUs, 70 C under load is perfectly fine. And artifacts only matter if they disrupt your gaming. I...
I was, but I was also hoping to use my step-up from eVGA and grab a 6800GS, which would cost me $115 and would have to be before April 13th... So...
Yup, what Defuzion posted is a great budget build. I have the same video card, and the PSU is great. I would want a more powerful CPU, but that's...
He's not going to be doing any serious gaming, right? Corsair ValueSelect should be just fine.
My ePower Puma II is great... 450W, 28a on the 12v rail. $46.50 on NewEgg.
She drives, I pay. :rolleyes:
Okay, that's one of the ones I've been looking at. And this is my saving up... 15 years old + $7/hour job + girlfriend = not much cash for...
Phix, you know what core you have? I'm CPU shopping, and was looking for the 3700+ Clawhammer, but NewEgg doesn't have 'em... <_<
I've got the demo, runs just fine on medium settings.
No way to best an Alienware for under $680, sorry. Defuzion's build will give you the best bang for your buck. Dibbles, that Alienware you...
That's even more dumbass-ish...
I used CoolBits to set the clock speed and tested it with ATi Tool .25 and 3DMark03... got it up to 575/1.06 before it started artifacting (stock...
You've gotta be a dumbass to remove a heatsink on an extremely overclocked CPU...
I'm starting to wonder how my 6600GT compares to your GTO, Diablo... I overclocked it a few days ago. :D
Don't even consider it until you learn more about it. Go sign up at overclock.com, and read tutorials, and ask questions.
It was a very close run between stott's and chem's, but chemical gets my vote.
Way to completely misinterpret what I said... I was comparing the FX-57 and 4000+. The 3800+ had nothing to do with it. And last I saw, the FX-60...
We weren't comparing the 3800+ vs the 4000+, we were comparing the 400+ to the FX-57.
Yup, it's basicly a re-vamped 6200, with all the new card goodies. Not a bad card, but I don't think it's worthy of the 7-series name.
Spectre, I would get the 4000+ because it costs a good $500 less.
lol, just felt like posting it. :P wasn't hard at all, Just used cool bits... upped it 10 MHz at a time, ran 3DMark03 for a bit to watch for...
I did my first OCing. :P Nothing major, just upped my eVGA 6600GT from the stock 500 core/ 900 memory to 540/932. My 3DMark03 score went up a...
