vista 64
1920 x 1200
tried a thermaltake screw on cpu fan and got 55c. ( intel board, don't ask )
when switching to asus p5q tried golden orb seemed to tight
with heatsinks and capacitors.
switched to the intel fan and I am at 27c. ( asus p5q )
I can add some better or worse parts to get two pcs.
The q9300 starts at 333 freq and I was bumping it up
slowly by 5 and after it got to 368 it seemed ok 29c.
Not sure what tests to run on it.
Isn't the 4780 $500?
What psu watts and what
plugs needed on card?
The gtx 260 is looking
good at $220-250.
I have a 650w I can return.
also 550w for the 9800gt.
The 9800gt seems good
the second pc vista flies
and can run age of conan
at 80fps on medium.
For me the tough part is the mobo
plain, ati, or sli. and ddr2 vs ddr3.
