Sounds like your PSU is inadequate for sure. The gtx280 is a monster, gotta feed it some good power. I'm sure you'll hear it over and over, but...

Hi all, Currently, my computer is running off of a 550W Antec PSU. It has things like an AMD X2 6000+ and a 9600 GT GPU. My computer, monitor,...

Any chance it's due to the timing/latency? Again, my motherboard specs show that it should support 667 RAM. The other sticks I bought (Crucial)...

That's weird, considering the motherboard supports faster RAM...I guess there are just things I don't get. My theory was maybe because my stock...
I recently purchased 4 sticks of faster RAM (DDR2 PC5300 667 as opposed to DDR2 PC4200 533) and put it in. But when I tried to boot, it wouldn't...
Hi guys, I current run the system below. I know it is underpowered by the stock PSU (300W), but I don't get my new one (550W) until Monday. I've...
Hi all, I'm sort of a noobie (compared to you guys, anyway), and I'm wondering what is the weakest link in my rig. I'm trying to make my computer...
