Noo!!

You went and bought a budget gpu.. no good for gaming!! That is what you wanted wasn't it?

You have an extreamely powerful pc probably more power than you will use and n graphics card for small basic gaming..

You should have culled your processor not your GPU..

You really should have listened to me :?

But however it is up to you and I hope you are happy regardless

anyway I am going away for a week now so have fun building

GPU = replaceable

I appreciate your input! Im very low on money atm so I will replace it when.. well... I earn some bucks! :)

...It should be at least better than 8800GT+9600GT tho.. right? <.<

EDIT: THANK YOU SO MUCH! I've just discovered 220 is a cheapass,crappy,horrible-not-worth-the-money graphic card (LINK)! So i bought XFX GeForce GTX 260 576M 896MB instead :) TNX alot!!!! Have fun that week, god bless you!

I'm now looking for optional gadgets, accessories for cooling.
I have no interest for any lighting, fancy colors, stickers and equally pathetic visuals. What I want is, option "tools" that may help in some way. Such as ...a computer tool kit. Excellent fans or water cooling kits/wares.

~Tnx


Oh yeah.. the reason I'm upgrading is so I can play JKA with "High" graphics! :P

I agree, bad choice. If you plan to replace it later on you should have gone with a 8800 ultra, 9800 or two 8800GT's or GTX's. Around the same price and these cards have enough power to still keep up for years to come.

lol, no.
The card i've bought will last for a while. I doubt I will have to replace it before i'll upgrade the entire computer. How ever, I may buy 2 more GPU's to accompany it.

Glad you made the right choice in the end!!

I CAN FINALLY GET PEACE! (A friend bought me the "Windows Upgrade", which I can't use. CANT USE!!! AND I KNEW I COULDNT! But he INSISTED it would work! ..so i've wasted ... uhh.. 100$ on something I couldn't use. Just great.

...Anyhow, NEW WINDOWS 7 HOME PREMIUM 64-BIT UPGRADE KEY for sale!!

Very nice scores

you have a computer system which will play pretty much every game with full effects and detail AA AF at HD res in DX10.

With the likes of Crysis 2 coming out it is a good prospect indeed.

New obstacle: My games random crashing!

Same game, but different "error"?
I was suspecting it had something to do with my graphic card/drivers, but WoW seem to run fine... also i did Furmark and burned it hard (max 86*C)

So I was thinking I may have to do another fresh reinstall of Windows 7. But I will do some more testing and... google~

Make sure your graphic driver is up to date and check for the latest game patch first. If that doesn't work its going to be a conflict with DX 10 and the game, in which case you'll need to install DX 9.

 #70172  by Chantelle
 
Since you're on DX11 you have have to install DX9 as RVCA says above for things to work properly.

Now I doubt you would have don this but its worth asking, have you altered voltages on your RAM in the BIOS when you built it? I only say this I remember with the last RAM I bought because I bought some powerful stuff which is typically used for Overclocking it required a bit more juice because it wasnt stable with out it.

 #70301  by Akimoto
 
I have not altered anything <.<

Either way, I found out it was my graphic card that was in error. (Thank god)
Overheating/freezing/crashing/artifacts in-game and when loading up windows.

 #70306  by Chantelle
 
Unless I misread you should have said Artifacts!!

I have had the same experiences with a faulty GPU (atrifacts overheating crashing etc)

I assume you sent it back because that is almost certainly a dud card!
