alright...i just put together a new system...gigabyte k8nsc (nforce 3 chipset fyi) w/ athlon 64 3200 90nm...vid card is a radeon 9600pro 256mb and ram is ocz gold series 3200 5-2-2-2 2.8v...little raid setup backup drive, dvd, burner, etc...400w thermaltake powersupply
now what happens is the computer will be runnin sweet right? but then i try to do even the least intensive game or something similiar and it locks up or reboots or vpu error(that i know is the pos radeon)...so im thinkin power supply...got a 520w antec on the way...and vid card sucks...geforce 6600gt on the way though...just makin sure i got my bases covered....
also my ram is only runnin at 2.75..board seems to max out here...but i laxed some hidden type timings on the ram and its stable through any simple memory test...but once i involve the video card in anything..crash city...so it could be just the vid card also....
....any ideas? got everything i might need for the fix ya think?
