because its guaranteed to work .. on overclocked settings.. with warranty.
and flawless software to work with it.

if u notice something .. they dont use overclock mems.. as they know alot of rma on rams running higher than jdec specs..
heck till the D9GKX and elpida rams of PC2-6400 1.8v came out they were using 667's for rams.

ok this is a real noob question :

1) For driver update, should i download straight from the manufacturer's website ? ; or

2) download from the cd first, then download the update ; or

3) if i already installed a driver , should i remove the old driver and re-install with the new update.

4) should i install a beta version >?

5) i just downloaded asus xonar d2x driver. when i open the zip file there are setup icon and an XP folder (inside the XP folder another setup icon) so which setup to click la ?

Cheers to all help !!!

dude y didnt ask me.. kekeke
no dont install the one from the cd.
i had a hard time removing all traces of it.

download from the website.
if u try the one on the cd will crash on some games.

download and fresh install. and yes try the beta version.uninstall the previous one before u do this
and just click the setup button.

also told u many times..
so many jokers here dont even have the hardware and never even installed it before
they never learn
assumption is the mother of all f***ups. ( UnderSiege 2 tongue.gif)

3) Usually no. Just install the new one over the old one.

Usually the drivers that come with the hardware are outdated. You can choose to install these first and then install newer ones or just install the newer ones.

i usually in fact all the time only give advice on product i used.
also told u just call me when u get ure stuff..
will help u build...
but dude i am only free next week after that will be back only next year.


do not ponder and give opinions on something i never used or use other ppl opinion and post it as my opinion...
lyn famous motto... opionion counts more than actual proven advice.
