so I just built my new computer.
amd 64 3800+
X800
Asrock dual slot mobo
and some other junk..
Ok so when I play games, alot of times my computer either :
1) Locks up
2) Or my Computer screen turns black, then locks up.
I think it's my videocard on accoutn that my video card looks a little beaten ( I see some wires sticking out on the bottom where you stick it in the mobo)
But it may also be me getting overheated..
I have only one fan in my case, but its a very good fan, and VERY loud...
It's a val-(something) the brand is the Tornado. It's as loud as one, thats for sure.
Another thing, it might be my cpu overheating, so I bought some thermal grease. Can anyone give me a pretty good idea on how to put it on? Thanks..
(RMAing my videocard on wednesday)
And how much is watercooling? Is watercooling compatible with everything? ( meaning, is it something you ahve to upgrade to keep up to par with newer hardware?)
thanks, again!
