Well, a couple of things... Depending on what price you get it for, it is a pretty decent rig. Only thing that might need to be upgraded is the GPU if you plan on doing some heavy gaming. It's tough to say what you're getting into when buying somebody else's prebuilt rig though. You probably...

That one should be YouTube and Netflix compatible for sure! ;)

As long as you don't plan on running dual GPU's or OC'ing you should be fine with that.

If you're using a Windows OS you can type 'msconfig' in the Search bar or in Run after you click on 'Start'. From there you can choose which programs are starting when you boot up your computer. There should be 3 boot up options when the System Configuration pops up, Normal Startup...

I don't really think there is much improvement to be made. 52c is a good temp to be at under load, perfectly normal. Are you planning on overclocking anymore?

The computer hardware world is constantly changing. As far as CPU's go, we are kinda due for some big changes, and here they are! It will be interesting to see what amd has in store for us.

In another thread you said you were buying a prebuilt machine from ibuypower. Which route do you think you're gonna go? 99% of people on this forum would tell you to build your own and so would i!

Looks good! I am jealous! Good luck with the build.

Both have the same socket (AM3) so it will fit but it depends on your other system specs. Please post your specs.

I'm sorry but what is the point of this thread? To point out that laptops and PC's should not be compared because they are entirely different products that serve entirely different purposes?

What kind of content would you have on your website? Keep in mind there are a ton of free websites that users do not have to pay to join, so you better have some damn good material that people cannot easily get their hands on!

If that is the stock PSU that came with the prebuilt PC then I would definitely change it out, especially since you upgraded the graphics card. Even though it meets the correct wattage requirement, a low quality PSU (like the ones HP puts in their prebuilt machines) should be replaced if you're...

Looks really good, congrats!

I think it would slightly bottleneck that CPU, but you need to keep in mind the 6970 is twice the card the 5770 is... I would go 6970 with that CPU if you're not concerned about the price difference.

I do not like any operating systems. My PC sits atop my desk so I can admire its looks.

Your best bet would be to make multiple copies of whatever files you have. As far as I know you cannot change the "Delete" option for a folder. It might be possible to do through the registry editor, but unless you're comfortable with doing that I would just leave it alone and make another...

Something like this would run that demo at decent settings. You could probably even go a little cheaper than that if you'd like. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102870

Temps look just fine. Probably your PSU failing.

Sounds good John, I will see if I can find an updated driver. Thanks!

If it seems to occur when playing games, and more frequently when the screen resolution is higher then it could be a PSU or a graphics card. Have you monitored the temps of these as you are playing to see if anything is overheating? You can use CPU-Z's hardware monitor to check the temps to...
