Hay guys,
I'm new here and joined for help. I built up a new pc with these specs:
Thermaltake 9000 Kandalf Case
Antec TruePower 2 - 550 Watts
AMD Athlon 64 3800+
Thermaltake PowerSonic with fan heat sink
MSI K8N Diamond SLI motherboard
2 GB PC 3200 DDR 533 Supertalent Memory
2 MSI NX 6800 GT T2DE PCIe
WD Sata Raptor 10K rpm 74 GB
WD Sata 7.2 K rpm 120 GB
WD Sata 7.2 K rpm 200 GB
The problem is that every time I try to play a game on high resolutions (1600 X 1200) it halts and restarts. Other application will run very smooth and fast. I tried every thing I know, changed the memory, power supply, updated BIOs & motherboard drivers and VGA drivers. I also reinstalled the Windows several times. I thought these specs would be something ? but my older more primitive pc was much more stable. What really hurts is that I researched hundreds of reviews and benchmarks on tens of sites, but the real world is different. If some one has a solution or a useful tip, I will be grateful.
