for me 1st my hd3870 died with horrible artifacts all over screen and now another weird mobo issue my mobo is oldie abit kn9 ultra, the trouble is time and date in bios everytime gets slower whenever i shutdown and off the main power eg. i shutdown on 11am today and later 5pm start it up the mobo will be at 11am or sometimes 12pm..already change battery but still same problem maybe the time for this mobo is up..already 2 years old lol
haha dont think will go for c2d, not economical..plan to get biostar 790gx board and use back my x2..then wait for 4850 price to tumble..cheap gaming system for cheapskater ppl like me
yea..soon will upgrade to x4 maybe, this the most economical way for now fast1, definately buying new one..still deciding which mobo, ta790gx3 a2+ or slightly more expensive J&W 790gx extreme
I will still prefer the Biostar or Asus 790 chipset series, they are fantastic! I love these AM2 platforms for the onboard graphics!
