Hey, I play alot of games during my free time such as rose evolution and ruff rose bots corum and flyff (wow in future). But lately its all been crashing my pc. So ive been thinking about building a new pc but I dont know what type of motherboard is appropriate for gaming such as the games mentioned above and video editing as well as web development software. Any ideas on what type of mother board i should use.
the bigger the better so then u can put more stuff onto it (i.e. more ram and a second processor and the like)
If you do't want to spend the cash for a new PC you could simply reinstall windwos to get "fresh start" since this would clean your PC of any spyware/adware crap you may have gotten. On the other hand if you really want to build a new PC post your budget and I will post some PC configurations that meet that budget.
I agree with peainapod, crashes don't usually happen just because a PC is old, they're usually due to software issues.
@rrose I forgot to ask are your running antivirus and antispyware programs? If so what are they? Can you post a hijack this log, so we can see what may be slowing your pc down.
A bit, I do a average job of reading them and I am getting better. For logs I am having real trouble with I scan them here http://www.hijackthis.de . After pasting your log into the box and "scanning" it the site tells you what is safe, whats malicious, what it is unsure about. It gets all this information from people adding "bad entries" to its database. It's fast and I have yet to encounter a false positive with the sites system/scanner.
I would recommend you get the intel coreduo 6300, that's the low end least expensive model. You mention you want it also for video editing and this processor impressed me with the speed. As far as gaming this cpu is overkill for that so it will definitely work fine in that regard. It's played every game I throw at it. As far as motherboard, you need to decide if you want agp/pci video card support, I got the cpu/motherboard combo for $189.00. It's an inexpensive ecs elitegroup P4M800PR0-M, I've had this system for about a year with no problems.
Which is unusual considering how poor ECS boards are. Buy the E6320 or E4400 CPU, they're getting pretty cheap now, and get a decent quality motherboard, or you could regret it.
I have seen firsthand how horrible the ECS boards are at overclocking. If you plan to overclock and use one of these boards don't expect anything better then a 10% boost.
Thxs to just for some information I have to restore the pc every month so thats just as good as reinstalling the windows. I do really need a new pc my laptop is hanging by one hinge lmao.
Thxs Ill check the motherboard forums and see what else they gotta say about it, im also looking toward ASUS Motherboard.
You're right, but when I played ruff-rose and rose evolution my Toshiba Laptop matched all the recent requirements to play it. It only crashed when i got to about lvl 40-50 on both ruff-rose and rose evolution so im thinking about setting up my own private server see if it doesnt crash if not then it just might be their server.
Lol I got ad-ware adwatch and antivirus. I use adware and adwatch alot. I use antivirus about once a month and only get about 3 viruses. during the 2 ad scans i get about 400 spyware in about 3 days. But it still remains the same speed accept when logging in.
My toshiba laptop only has 120 gb hard drive so when i start building my pc im gonna get good processor with 500 gb harddrive 2gb ram intel proccessor and a Geforce 3 Ti200
rrose, don't multi-post as you have 5 posts in a row as you should have edited your 22. August 2007 @ 20:11 post to include your next posts. 12. Repeated posts to increase total number of posts is not allowed. Especially if your message is the last in the thread, edit it rather than post a new message.
Why a video card like this "Geforce 3 Ti200"? When your getting parts like this "ood processor with 500 gb harddrive 2gb ram intel proccessor"??
I wasnt Multi Posting on purpose I was posting new message to different people not the same person so people wouldnt get confused. And of course the message would be last in the thread cause I was the last one replying to what that person wrote. It takes time for other people to reply.
