Why is this PSU so cheap?
[url]http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=15_226&products_id=16143[/url]
$157 is cheap?
next year i wanna get a custom pc, ive been working all year to get 1500 bucks, what kind of performance can i get with that? (im probaly buying this next year like mid 2012)
a lot
So I have literally gotten rid of all conflicting drivers and tested every part of my computer.
What else is left to do? I haven't ran memtest or ran a prime95 run yet so I guess I could try that?

I hate how long it takes to sell a PC, is there any fast way to sell a PC?

Lower the price some or just add that it handles mw2 and blackops perfectly.
Sold within a day.
[QUOTE=Nsybouts;31634832]Is there anyway I can just "get rid" of these Relteak drivers and run windows ones?
How about switching to a USB sound adapter? (like the ones that come with logitech headsets)[/QUOTE]
USB sound adaptor is good.
I don't know about the drivers.

Well yeah, I [I]could...[/I] But I doubt 1 GB of RAM and an 1.5 GHz atom could handle it well either...
Also my other major problem is I can't time [B]individual[/B] frames on Photoshop. The only way I really could was to spam layers of the same kind to make the illusion that there's a delay between two frames when it's just one frame repeated several times over.
Iirc that increases the image size and I don't want that.

Yeah, that's normal Photoshop CS#.
I'm talking Elements 8.
Sorry, should've mentioned that...
Rate me dumb.

Oh, sorry, I can't help you there.
Which SSD is the best for the price?
And under $250
[editline]10th August 2011[/editline]
Also needs to be 60GB+

Probably the Crucial M4.
It's basically second-best to the Vertex 3, with better random reads/writes (the majority of disk usage anyway), and because it has a Marvell controller you won't experience the headaches people are apparently having with the current-gen SandForce controllers.
The 64GB version is ~$115 and the 128GB is ~$220.

Awesome
Why does the 128GB has better writes than the 64GB?

In a higher capacity SSD there are more NAND chips, so a larger capacity drive with your data spread across these multiple NAND chips can transfer more data from them simultaneously. As a general rule, a large capacity hard drive performs a bit better (especially on write operations) than a smaller one, but the difference is not even close to being linear.
In reality, without benchmarks there's probably no way someone could tell the difference.

Ah ok
Hope I have enough when I sell my current one to get everything I want
But I rather have an SSD over a CPU cooler

If your budget is $250 you can spend $115 on the 128GB one and $120 on an NH-D14.

I was thinking of going a corsair build.
Corsair 650D, H80, 8GB Corsair Vengeance RAM, and a Corsair 850W PSU
Along with a i5 2500k and Asus P8P67
And the 128GB is $230
[editline]10th August 2011[/editline]
Also my friend just got a NH-D14 for $90 on Newegg
Is it worth paying for the DL380 or is the DL360 better priced?

Yeah I'd definitely replace that RAM, there should be no errors...

Take one stick out and test them individually, then you can still have half of your normal RAM and use your computer opposed to waiting for the replacements.
[QUOTE=SataniX;31657203]eh what?[/QUOTE]
I think he got mine and your post mixed together
I said my friend got it for $90 and you said I can get it for $120
So I think he thought my friend got it for $120
Jeez $120 was a guess anyway.
I have no idea how much the NH-D14 is in US$.

It was $80 just a few days ago but my friend missed it and got it for $90
