Guy's have been having an overheating problem for sometime now,computer just shut's itself down,when it like's.I am thinking of changing my motherboard,as this has the fan and heatsink on it, . I would like to go dual core and was leaning toward's intel. What would you recomend. existing. amd xp 3000 cpu barton 512 ddr pc 2700-333 ram inmt asus a7n8x- mx-se motherboard any advice will be appreciated
recomendations are hard without a price and purpose for the machine. if i was to do a new build today for myself i would start with a core 2 duo in a nf650i mobo with some ddr2 pc 6400. other than that its back to my first line. im sure that a good clean and possibly some new thermal paste would help your over heating problem. edit @ryan i must of started as you posted, thats not going to fit a socket a mobo tho
Thank's guy's I am taking all your thought's into consideration,but would still like idea's on a new board, not much of a gamer,but able tocope with most thing's,money not much of a problem. Cheer's again.
Ryan fitted a new heatsink and fan, seem's to have done the trick , touch wood, any idea's for an upgrade out there.
