New PC Specs
« on: April 18, 2010, 02:59:09 AM »
Ive had a new pc for a wile now and just thought i would post.

Intel i5 750 2.66GHz
HIS ATI Radeon HD 5770 1024MB GDDR5
GSKILL 4GB 1600MHz
OCZ Stealth XStream 600w PSU
500GB HDD
Antec 300 Case

I'm really happy with it. Runs every game ive thrown at it. MW2 on max settings, SA - 90-120fps, GTA IV on default settings - 60-70fps

i7 really isn't that much better than the i5 for the price difference

also it's funny cause I recently bought the same graphics card

Why didnt you buy the i5 660? Not that I know anything about it, but the specs are better and its only 5€ more  :)

anyway, nice PC, and thanks again for helping me. Gonna get an i5 processor now instead  ;)

The i5 660 is a dualcore CPU with integraded onboard video chip. Meant to be used in HTPC's and not gaming PCs ;)

I didn't go for an i7 because it was an extra £50 and i might have had to spend a bit for on a motherboard. I went over my budget as it is so...

BUMP!

When i play a streaming video in full screen it freezes, and recently when i play video in media player... it freezes and BLUE SCREEN!.
Run the install disk and its stopped the blue screen but still freezes.
When it does this only thing i can do is restart the computer.
Just before the blue screen it said in the bottom right on the screen "AMD has recovered from a driver problem" or something like that.

Checked the website, no driver updates for windows 7

and got college work to do, would rather not send it off to be repaired or wait for a replacement.
