That's it for Palit's GTX 460.

Same subject,


That's just as before the test started.
GPU usage also reaches 99%.




Even Blockland freaks out ;~;


I restarted PC; it seems I overreacted a lot.


Dead Island also runs back at 60 FPS on full max.

That's good to go for me. Except temperature, it had starting temperature of 64C... It usually is under 40.
Either way, what could've gone wrong?

Overclock your GPU core to 800, shader to 1600, memory to 2100.  That's how I have mine clocked and it gives a nice increase in performance.

You want watts, not volts. The volt amounts should be the same on every power supply.

Then you don't need a processor that good

[Doomonkey]

Actually, 430 might be sufficient.

tbh Windows 7 used about 100MB more ram than XP does on my machine
then again XP appears to be more stable compared to 7 on my machine so whatever

im getting a 530 watt power supply to be safe, if i try to upgrade anything later on.

Does it have an 80 plus rating?

[KoopaScooper]

disregard them, around a 450W PSU should do for that unless you plan to upgrade later

Windows XP won't have support in about two years.
After that, windows won't make security updates to the system; therefore if yet another huge security issue is found, it won't be fixed.
