Aha... Well, that’s why I’m asking since I don't really know 🙂 Thanks for the info.
So, I'm just running the stock cooler on my CPU right now, so I'm not sure if I can even push an overclock, maybe just a tiny bit?
Sent a guy a DM... 🙂
Which one is better, the 5770 or the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 260 (216sp) Standard edition?
Look, I get what overkill means. But I'm trying to figure out what the ceiling is for an Intel Core i3-4350. Like, a 5870 would just be wasted since the CPU would be a total bottleneck... maybe a 5830 is the sweet spot?
Here’s what I’m running right now:
Motherboard - M3A785GM-LE/128M
CPU - AMD X3 435 (one of the cores is dead)
RAM - Kingmax DDR3 2x2GB 1333MHz
Drive - Samsung 500 GB F3
PSU - FORTRON 400W Super Silent
Case - Gigabyte GZ-KX1
Monitor - Samsung 22" 1920x1080
I'm looking to pick up a GPU... StarCraft II is dropping soon, and I still haven't even touched Fallout 3, Grand Theft Auto IV, or CoD—basically anything in that tier.
1. What kind of card should I grab if I want to crank most games to max settings without completely choking out my processor?
2. What would be a good move if my budget stays under $300? And how much of a performance jump am I actually looking at compared to the first option?🙂 ?
Thanks for the help.
Everything from their CD... probably about 30 of them...

I went ahead and installed Windows 7 Ultimate on it, but now the whole thing just freezes up constantly, forcing me to do a hard manual reset. It happens during basic stuff, like right-clicking an icon or whenever I'm trying to install some software... Plus, the USB ports seem totally hit-or-miss.
Is this probably a Windows issue or is the hardware itself just junk? I'd really rather not deal with the hassle of returning it to the store if it's just a software glitch...
Thanks
