CPU temp is 45C, not OCed, and running Corsair Cooling Air Series A50 Performance CPU Cooler. GPU temp with 7 chrome tabs and several non-intensive programs running is 42C. I also just reformatted, and have gotten the same error when I was running Starcraft 2 and watching a youtube video at the...

I have been running 4x4gb for a month before this without much problem though, and have run numerous memory diagnostics, all which found no problem...the two things I could see it potentially being would be my PSU failing or the like, or drivers of something...the only thing is one should be...

It's that time of the year again, time for upgrades, considering my last computer build was 3 years ago! I have been living in Russia for the past year, so am I little out of the loop, but I think I have researched enough to roughly know what is good/bad in today's computer gaming market so here...

Hello, I just recently got another 512 MB of Samsung RAM to add to the two 512 chips in my motherboard already. This would add up to 1.5gigs. However, I am having a problem because I put the RAM chip into the black DIMM slot for I had to other 2 chips in the blue ones. I put the chip in one, but...

Can someone help me? The onboard sound for this motherboard is very echoey on my headset, and it is really annoying me, especially in Quake 3 engine games. It is RealTek AC'97. It didn't happen for the 2 weeks before I got my Evga 6600GT PCI-e. I reformatted, installed everything in correct...
