Yea I hope you're being sarcastic...
And it'd have to depend on how your dad will be hooking the computer to his TV. If he wants HDMI with audio then there's no competition, the 4350 but if he is fine with VGA or DVI then it's more of a toss up. I'd probably pick the 4350 over the 7600gt...
What exactly are you trying to accomplish? So you'll spend some money for a cheap motherboard and cheap CPU and then when it doesn't overclock properly you'll spend more money on another motherboard? You should see overclocking as a bonus, not as a goal if you're going for a low end CPU. Keep...
Eyefinity is merely the technology used to be able to display on more than 2 monitors. The ability to use multiple monitors as a single monitor is a software thing, I believe you can do it in drivers, I think ATI's always had Hydravision or w/e that was called to do that.
But the OP stated...
Well onboard gfx wouldn't exactly be good if you're trying to do 1080p playback and use it as a HTPC...
Obviously different requirements will need different cards and if you don't lay out the requirements it'd be hard to make suggestions, especially when you get down to price.
But there...
I don't really understand the hate for the integrated GPU.
The integrated GPU is not meant to replace dedicated GPU's, disabling the GPU will prevent it from using any additional power and thus prevent it from producing any additional heat. The fact that these are produced in mass quantities...
Hey guys, I'm encountering an issue and I couldn't find anything online about it.
So I built a SFF PC using this motherboard:

and I really want to have an HDMI port so I can use it as a...
That's what I'm afraid of, I think I'm going to take it to a local computer place to have it looked at, or at least try and stick the cpu in another mobo.
So I'm building a computer for a friend of mine. The major components are:
Intel Core 2 Duo e4300
Gigabyte GA-965P-DS3 Rev 1.3
2x 1gb Super Talent DDR2 5400
Sapphire ATI x1950Pro
250gb Western Digital SATA hard drive
20x Phillips DVD-RW
Thermaltake 430W powersupply
Now I put everything...
Just to be sure, how would I know if the disk controllers are compatible? Are they even compatible with two different chipsets? Also, I probably should have mentioned it, but my current system is OEM (I raided the original 160gb HDD with my raptor, got a copy, unraided and am using the raptor...
Thanks for the quick reply. I'm not using a PCI HDD controller but the integrated SATA on my current motherboard. I'd be moving from a Sis chipset to a Nvidia chipset. Mostly I'm just getting the motherboard for extra features and overclocking.
I feel stupid bringing back a dead topic but I was hoping someone could help me out. I'm using a SATA hard drive as my boot drive (150gb raptor) and I want to change my motherboard so everything else (processor, ram, Hard drives) will all remain the same. Would I still be able to use this method...
If you're looking to spend under $150 then any card from I guess it'd be 2-3 generations ago would fit the bill. I currently am running on a 6600gt which should be a noticable improvement over the 9700pro. If you aren't worried about voiding the warrenty on your card, which I figure you aren't...
I've already tried that and it didn't work. I ultimatly deleted my user account since it was broken anyways so I made a new account and it said that it was missing a file or something, would this mean that I would need to repair windows?
