    Hello! Some help with my new build? ^^

    Comparing a GTX260 vs a 4890 is like comparing a Lamborghini to a Ferrari. They are both quality, and they will server you well. I have used them both. And there is little to no difference. also in this case the gtx will out perform the 4890 because you have a board with an nvidia chipset.

    Clock speed vs. Amount of Cores

    Here is how it works. The speed (Ghz) does not matter when you have multiple cores. A dual core would be good for some gaming, and everyday use. A quad core is for multitasking and intense gaming. Any day a quad core over a dual core. Example. a dual core CPU running at 2.5Ghz. The 2.5Ghz is...

    finding the defected ram

    What I say you do, is run one stick at a time. If one gives bsod then you know its thats one. Also how frequent was bsod? and before you go testing ram make sure you test both of them equal amounts of time, to ensure it is a ram related problem
