    Supreme Commander @ 1920 x 1200

    My computer isn't junk but this game still lags me when playing 4 player 20 x 20 maps 1000 units. Anybody have hardware that does not? (At 1920 x 1200) If your rig can handle it post your hardware please. I'm guessing the lack of a second processor is killing me.

    Inexpensive 2GB Memory recomendations?

    My hardware is in my signature. I would prefer 2-3-2-5 timing and as much overclocking as I can get but I don't want to go balls out on price considering DDR2\Core2 blah blah blah. I'm just looking for a more playable Battlefield 2 at 1920 x 1200.

    7900 GT O/C reboot issue resolved

    678 / 1986 on my 7900 GT was stable as ever. Until about 2 days ago when while playing games my computer would reboot about 1 or 2 minutes once the game was started.

    CAB2E Opty 148 OC wierdness

    I have a CAB2E Opty 148 and can prime over 8 hours at 2825MHz but my computer will reboot after ~10min when I play Battlefield 2. I have brought it down to 2700MHz and it runs BF2 fine.
