signs of a overheating video card?
Yeah its a time issue at this point. I always build my own . My wife does a monthly magazine for animal rescue and has to use Pagemaker 7.0 and of couse it won't run on her Mac so we gotta have an IBM that runs. The plan was get the laptop but time then I would build a computer. but that went to shit.e_aLpHa wrote:- Crap 2 grand? ! .. This one that I just build didn't even reach 1 grand ..started with nothing but ideas .. then all came from newegg.com - of course you gotta have patience , time and know what you're buying - I got most of the advice on this from my fellow clan mates (thanks)- Runs pretty cool 42c load on cpu- and Game FPS never drop below 60 on any map so im pretty happy and the time and money spent were too worth it - of course is a big big big space eating desktop pc -
So I bought a toshiba laptop which was a pos. 15% restocking to return 150$ lost
Bought the Asua a8jp its was about 1400$ is getting RMA.
I just bought this POS gateway barely runs vista 600$ . prolly have to buy XP again a put it one it tack on another 100$.
The old amd 3200 socket 754 I warrentied the chip its ok the mb was bad got one for 40$ but it doesnt like my old ati 9600 card. And oh yeah a day before it croaked I just bought 119$ another 1 gig of ram pc 3200.
Really im laughing at this point what else is there to do.
