Hey, I'm planning to buy graphic card to my pc. I hope, u will help me with this problem ;]
Asrosck alive nf6p-vsta
Samsung 160 gb
Athlon LE-1640(2.6)
Pentagram 430W
Graphic card??
I think about ATI HD3850 256MB SAPPHIRE DDR3 PCI-E DVI TVO but I heard, I have to slow processor... And that, 3850 have unnaturally temperature not only in hard working... Is that true?
Next quwstion is: does 3850 go to Asrosck alive nf6p-vsta? This card is very long, and i dont know.
What do u think? Maby some recomendations, suggestions :) Please for help and thanks for every answers ;]
 
yes, that proc will be a bottleneck, but that doesn't matter, imo. Also, my brother has a 3850, and it does not run hot at all.
 
Your CPU would be a huge bottleneck for your system. You'd probably won't be able to use that card to it's full power. As for size, it's not the motherboard that determines whether it'd fit or it, it's the case.
 
Yhm. Is better buy gf 8600 and maximum exploate power this card? I dont know how much power "lost" hd 3850 on my cpu. If it will not has highly better than 8600 on my cpu i should buy gf...
 
the 8600 would be a much better match. But why don't you upgrade your proc a little? like to a dual core? then later, you can still get the 3850.
 
Answer is simply: no cash ;]
I heard, my athlon is good stuff for o/c. Even on box ventilator, i think, I can get 3.0 cpu with minimal temperature change... So maby hd 3850 isn't so bad choice? ;]
 
it might hit 3.0ghz but it won't matter, its just not a good processor unfortunately. your best bet would be to splurge for a X3 processor or a phenom instead of a video card for now, that will make it so you don't have to upgrade your processor again for awhile.
