Problem with a graphics card Nvidia 8600GT

i avoid going for a cheapo i3 because amd was a much better value for money deal for me. except for the stock fan problem, everything has been fine. i spent 25K on: Asus MB (almost a premium category board) 7KAMD processor 10KCooler Master HSK 2K4GB DDR3 RAM 6Kthe intel processor i wanted was the quad core q6550 i think. the processor alone was around 16.5K.

For that price you could have looked for quad core i5 750.

You didn't buy a GPU?
 
ok here are the details:

Asus M4A785TD-V EVO is the motherboard

AMD Phenom II X4 965 Black Edition (3.4 GHz, quad-core) is the processor

Transcend 1333MHz DDR3 2x2GB is the RAM

Cooler Master Hyper 212 Plus is the HSK

NVIDIA GeForce GT 120 is the GPU i am running right now i believe.
 
Your mobo is AM3 so it should support thuban. All it require will be a BIOS update i think.
 
all his build needs now is a decent gpu.. 5770 should do well on a 19 inch lcd at max settings.. it costs around 7 k :) else if admin can shell out 11 k he can go for 5900 series i think :D
 
He doesn't seem like the gaming type :D

Instead for spending 30k on a gaming rig its better to buy xbox 360 for 12k and play pirated games on it.

i used to have a 360 bro a genuine one.. believe me 360 is boring without xbox live.. its worth nothing without online capabilities.. moreover we can download pirated games for pc too :P even my average rig plays games at max settings without any probs at 1152 x 864 on a 17 ich crt :D

Therz a downside to that if ur an enthusiast like me. btw You'll get better gfx on 30K PC than on the PS3, case in point GTA 4 DLC 2 PC v.s PS3 version, even tho there are some bugs in the PC version, it still looks stunning and much better than the PS3 one. So now, I'm at a point where my PS3 serves as a media center while the PC serves as a gaming platform....:iomg:
