Building a Computer

I wouldn't buy that video card you can get a ati 5770 that's around the same price and is 15-20% faster. The 250 gts runs with the ati 4850 which is 2+ years old.

Well i plan on taking Pics of it so ill upload 1 or 2 and ill think about that Ati Card

You better do more than think that 250 will get bitched slapped by Bad Company 2 and any other future dx11 games.

Well i got butt raped 150$ To replace my phone so I got a 220 (for now of course) and Ill try to get a Ati next ill upload the Pics soon and i would like to thank everyone for the Tips and help but i really would like to thank *tear drops* binary for telling me how to install windows 7 (joke)

220 sucks bad :/

[Moo]

It gets the job done for now next ill get a radeon and a bigger power supply

you were better off getting the high-end older model, instead of the low end newer model..

well the best thing to do is actually read up on everything anyone tells you that way you know exactly what your putting in your comp, and if your taking advice from someone who is always building comps for themselves (more than 1 every 2 years) then they are obviously fucking something up which is making them do that, you build a new comp it should last easily 5-7 years and run anything that comes out with a 3 year reboot of the os to regain speed which all computers lose over a couple years or just get a new comp every 3-4 years like i normally do but im poor atm lol

and as peow said, why the hell would you buy some noob ass pos vidio card instead of one thats 2 years old and a lot better and just update when that one is no longer usable which would probably be 3-5 years, you might as well just use the onboard chip instead of a low grade that usually isnt supported by any game and you end up having massive troubles just getting shit to run on it

you should also check out the average heat indexes for what your buying so you know if the fans/tower will support what your getting cause if you build your shit wrong then your gonna end up having crashing problems due to overheats, ive just been working with someone who had someone else build a comp for him and they put the fans in the wrong spot and blowing the wrong directions, everything in his comp was running over 65C, didnt put a partitioned iso incase he would have to reinstall, which he does due to a harsh virus he got

it dont take much to realy fuck your comp up that your building, and if you fuck it up sometimes you cant fix the problem and you just wasted all that time and money for a paper weight

[Moo]

God damn it calm down people i said for Now ill replace the GPU when another time

[PeLlE]

Little question to you graphic experts:
Is an ATI HD 5670 1024Mb GDDR5 good?
It looks like it'd slightly better than my Geforce 9800GTX
Thinking about buying a new computer sicne I still got on of the first dual cores and the ATI comes with the one I'm thinking about buying

[inola]

I wouldn't replace a 9800gtx with 5670. The 5670 is an extreme value card it is very low end.
Here is a Link showing the 9800gt raping the 5670 up pretty good and the 9800gtx is a little faster than the 9800gt.

If I were you I wouldn't go less than ati 5770 from a 9800gtx. You can find 5770 for about $50+ more than 5670 depending on name brand.

Hey Nola what happens if I OC the Frequency of my PC anyway ? i have it set to 9 but maximum is 22

[inola]

That must be the multiplier your talking about do it and find out. It might boot at 22
