    AMD x2 4850e 45w

    Well, finally got it all put together. It comes with a plain Jane AL heatsink and fan, no smooth finish on the bottom of this puppy! But it does have some decent TIM on the bottom... Mounted the 4850e on the Gigabyte 780G MB, got Vistax64 all loaded in and all the drivers etc. Loaded up...

    4200 Brisbane @ 3.2ghz Temps

    please put celcius temps on here so we can guage better. BTW, 98f is great temps, that's 38c at idle. Don't bother lapping anything, unless you have a VERY flat standard you will not have as flat a surface. Get a better HSF if you are worrying about temps. You can hit 55-60c at full load...

    AMD x2 4850e 45w

    I got mine yesterday and put it on Gigabytes 780G matx board. Got two of my awesome sticks of GSKILL on there, but no other nice accessories. I'm trying to get my vlited Vistax64 Ultimate the way I want it, then it's OC time on the factory heatsink. I'm making this an HTPC.

    Crysis, COD4, Gears of War all playable on 8800GT

    I have a measly dual core Opteron 1210 @ 2.7ghz Vista x64 and x1900XT @ 1680x1050 medium on most setting, 4xAA and Crysis is very playable. I can hardly believe that with the super high end hardware that people have, that they complain about not being able to play the game at all. lol I call...

    Quality MicroATX PSU?

    Better yet, wait a bit and get a quality AMD AM2+ microatx board and be even more futureproof. Get one that will allow 4 videocards! lol
