I will have to keep those facts in mind. Thanks.

I have an old HP which is breaking again and I need a new computer but I can't afford one. I don't know if any members would be willing or able to help me out but if anybody could that would be great. Thanks for any replys in advance.

On newegg.com the Q6600 is about $20 bucks more than the Phenom 9950. And from what I have read, the Q6600 is far better than any AMD Phenom so far released and it doesn't cost that much more here in the good old US of A. However the budget Athlons are quite a steal. Even the Core i7 920 (not...

according to newegg, most 4850s and 4870s have the same amount of memory, although the 4870s have some 1GB cards. The clock speeds are a bigger difference than I have origonally imagined. Most of the 4850 and 4870 cards are rated at memory speeds of about 1800 MHz but I do see some that have...

They may. But concidering how incredibly overpriced Phenoms are, at what cost are they going to be better than the i7. Reports are that the i7 920 is running circles around the older 9550 Core 2 Quad, and that 9550 is a pretty good processor.... And the phenom 9950 doesn't even come close to...

Thanks ETSA. That helped a lot.

Very good. I like AMD OK but to be perfectly honest unless I am doing a budget build for someone, I'm sure as hell going to use Intel. But that situation may be different in a few years and when Intel's time of glory is over, I will be very sad to have to use AMD for the majority of my high end...

I was wondering what the difference between the 4850 and the 4870 is. they have the same memory speed, same average clock speed, and same stream processors. So what makes the 4870 so much better than the 4850?

I think that 650 Watts is more than enough but your issues sound wierd so I think it's amps that your PSU is giving you trouble. And even you if you did feel like upgrading your current to psu to a new one, I need to know connections you have going right now because I can't list anything without...

Allmine's requests were also for a $65 or less power supply. So here are some other worthwhile looking at. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817339012 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817339001

Yes I understand that there are more to pick from in that catagory than just those but I did not feel like listing way overly priced power supplies of the same average wattage. And I only listed the PSUs I did because their watts and amps were good and he did not need anymore power than 500...

No, they are budget and that's what their meant to be and they do a good job for what they do and how much performance you get per dollar. If I had 700 dollars to spend on a gaming PC, I'm not going to spend $165 for an E8400, I'm going to spend $90 on a 6000+ or $100 on a 8450X3 Phenom.

Strangle hold, I was saying that Rosewill that I listed was better because I don't care about brand reputation. I care about the product I am going to be reccomending or in some cases, actually using. That Rosewill inparticular was better in every respect from the reviews to the connections, to...

Exactly why I said that the newer duo's use less power and run cooler. The 5800+ and 6000+ are great cheap processors but they use a lot of energy and they run hot. In part to their 90nm cores.

This is pretty much what I meant. Only this worded better.

It deffinately sounds like all of the power supply promlems I deal with in my school. I would do some other checks if can like switching out the ram, or other stuff if you can. If not, don't waste you money on a computer repair place because they will try and rip you off. Take you best bet, and...

One can support 2 video cards in SLI and the other has an onboard lowend graphins chip, and can only support one dedicated video card.

I'm not absolutely sure, but those volages and overclock speeds sound like they would completely break every part of your computer.

I didn't say faster, I said cooler and less power consumption.

I have used Rosewill and I have many friends that are not on here use rosewill too. And many of the Rosewill products are rated 5 stars.... Most of them are in the lower power rating power supply though. Also, one thing you may want to know about me. If some company sells computer parts and...
