Hey Guys, iv been on this forum a lot and i have been doing a lot of reading but i have a few questions unanswered still

I have a Chaintech ZNF3-150 M/B with Kingston Hpyer X PC4000 DDR 500 Ram, 1 gig and 120 gb sata hard drive and i have the BFG 6800 Ultra Water cooled video card, with AMD 64 3400 and a Ultra X Connect 500 watt power supply and dvd burner


problem!..............

nothing is hooked up

its all sitting on my bed, i have a p4 2.8 with a 9200 ati that i use,

now i have all this great stuff i hope, problems are arising, i dont know if the p/s works on my m/b, i find this out after the fact that it works for intel's i didnt see anything about amd, and about the water cooling part, what system should i use? and if i do select a system can i water cool both my cpu and video card?

what should i do i need some help please... i have just a few unanswer questions,

thanks a lot people for the help
 
If a power supply (p/s, right?) works on an Intel system, it will work on an AMD as well.

Doesn't that video card have a self-contained watercooling unit or am I thinking about something else? If it does, you wouldn't need to add water cooling.
 
Also 1 more thing,

I was wondering about over clocking, my 3400 amd is the clawhammer chip, how would i go about overclocking the chip?


and my case is just a joe blow case, nothing special, its large and black, any recommendatios for a case too?
 
oh noes!

you got the vnf3-150gb, poor poor kid, those are prolly the worst motherboards ever made for s754, return that and get the 250Gb

Click to expand...

my mistake, it is still the -150gb though right?

the nForce3 150Gb mobo's were not very good, that is why they rushed out the nForce3 250Gb boards....

anyways though, that wouldn't stop this from working or not...

an "Intel" rated PSU will still work with an AMD mobo, no difference in power there...
 
Ok well how about the cooling system? and the over clocking? any suggestions with the cooling system for the cpu and vid card?
