Suggestions for Graphics Card

paohyean — Fri, 25 Nov 2011 12:20:33 +0800

I have been owning this rig for over a year with the following specs..
- AMD Athlon II X3 440 (No O/C)
- 8GB DDR II RAM
- ASUS M4A785G HTPC/RC Motherboard (AMD 785G chipset)
- Currently using its integrated Radeon 4200 graphics
- Western Digital Caviar Blue 500GB for boot
- 2 Western Digital Caviar Green 2TB for storage
- PCI WiFi card
- 2 optical drives
- Cooler Master eXtreme Power Plus 460W (120mm fan) PSU
- Dell U2311H monitor

I believe it is time for me to give it an upgrade in terms of graphics.
I don't think that I will be upgrading the other stuffs besides the PSU (if really needed to drive the graphics card).

My only requirements is to play games at my monitor's native resolution (1920x1080) at medium to high details.
I would also like to make use of the DisplayPort connector on my monitor so I can free up the DVI port for me to plug in my notebook when I need an extra display for it.
And I am not playing games like MW3.
I am more of a RTS and RPG type of light gamer.

Preferably I am looking into the Radeon series.

At the moment I have the 6770/6790 and the 6850 in mind.

So I would like some feedback on which would be a better choice?
My budget would be around RM600.

And the next issue would be the PSU.
Would the PSU be sufficient enough for me to power either cards?
Or do I need to upgrade it as well?
I have the Corsair CX500W or the GS600W in mind if I do need to upgrade the PSU as well.

Any suggestions or feedback?

Thanks.

Looking for Third Party Cooler

Hi...
I just recently built a new system...
Below are the specs...

AMD Athlon II X3 440 (No O/C... yet)
Stock Heatsink
ASUS MA785HTPC-RC
Cooler Master Elite Power 460W
Cooler Master Elite 342 mATX Casing
Cooler Master fans on front, side and back

Not to sound fanboyish, but I'm currently interested to invest in a Cooler Master TX3 HSF...
However I'm not sure if it can fit into my current system...
I have so far tried my colleague's Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme and the heatpipes jutted out of the casing rendering it impossible...
So does anybody have any idea whether will this HSF fit into the casing???
Or are there any other alternatives???
My budget is between RM60-100...

Elpida RAM RMA

paohyean — Sun, 07 Feb 2010 13:55:12 +0800

Greetings to all LYN forumers...
I currently have a stick of 2 GB DDR2 RAM that came along with my brother's Dell PC...
I'm not sure what happened...
But the RAM seemed to have fried already...
And the PC's warranty has expired already as well...
So I'm wondering whether anybody knows where can I RMA the stick of RAM???
It's manufactured by Elpida...
Anybody knows where can I RMA the stick of RAM without involving Dell???
Thanks a lot...

Need help with Windows Vista login password... O.o

paohyean — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 09:21:04 +0800

Need some help and advices from all Lowyat.NET members...

My cousin recently set a new password for his computer...
But apparently somehow he forgot the password...

So now I have to clean up his mess...
Anyway...
He's using Windows Vista Home Premium...
It's a HP Pavilion PC and he hasn't even created all the recovery discs yet...
So I guess wiping out everything would be out of the question...
Any suggestions on what I can do to clean up his mess???

Thank you very much for all your input.
