QUOTE(V12Kompressor @ Apr 20 2010, 08:25 PM) oh, how sad speaking of which, my system has been acting up too. I don't know either the processor fan or PSU fan is the culprit. Every morning I woke up, I can hear the noise of the fan spinning in a very noisy manner. >.< Hopefully its the PSU fault. If fan problem,just take it out and drop some singer oil to the fan ball bearing...problem will be solved. QUOTE(dlwl @ Apr 21 2010, 12:43 AM) my friend is thinking of changing his graphic card, and he's trying to minimize the budget for his upgrade. thinking of going for 3850 AGP, anyone here using it? and does he need to upgrade his PSU too? using the stock one from dell. current specs are 3.0HT, 1.5GB ram. 3850 AGP is a nice upgrade but you will still see some bottleneck over there. Someone is selling it brand new at RM299.

QUOTE(KahLooN @ Apr 21 2010, 10:08 AM) @raymond Yeah, but my system had serve me very long already. If it give up then is not a surprise. @v12kompressor Well you can open up the side panel and listen to it, it will give you a more indication which fan is failing. Like what raymond suggest, after that you can add some oil to it. @dlwl Your friend looking for 3850? I'm letting go my x1950pro, maybe you can ask your friend interested on this card.  Kahloon,not to say suprise to hear that but sad to see the board is dying.... QUOTE(ycs @ Apr 21 2010, 10:17 AM) just wanna ask if i can remove the NB fan on my abit AI7 board and use the passive cooler only? the fan sounds like going to die. I am not recommending you to do that.....Use an active cooler is better.

QUOTE(V12Kompressor @ Apr 22 2010, 01:24 AM) Tested it just now. Yup, PSU fan problem. Gonna buy some lubricant when the sun is up. At first I thought it is the processor fan since I didn't put any thermal paste on since the day I've mass clean my P4, which is many many months ago. Still going strong Lucky I posted here. Coz I was planning to buy a new PSU already.  No thermal paste on the CPU?

QUOTE(dlwl @ May 14 2010, 10:32 AM) probably they have had most of the bugs, if not all, rectified from the RC version before they released the final version  It could be,right now i am still trying on it. It is more responsive compare to the RC.  Are you with Win 7 now?

3.4GHz o/c to 3.9GHz..that's insane...I don't think a Northwood chip is able to do this. He is using an Intel board with GC build in,i wander how he made his o/c on board.
@ichigo_6091,do you have any print screen to share with us ?

@fylon,converting RAW files really need high CPU processing. I wander the quaddies could process the files faster compare to dual core ?

@fylon and edmin,i use my notebook dual core to process the raw files only so i wasn't sure with the quad core utilization on the softwares. @shinjite,eying on the AMD hexa cores?  They are not that pricey though.
