Sidenote : I am very very very novice when it comes to anything with V/I/R/W,A,Ohm... ;p 1)I did install a custom start button some time ago and plugged that into the motherboard , one of following: http://www.aquatuning.nl/waterkoeling/monitoring/knoppen-schakelaars/4320/phobya-vandalismus-/-klinge...

I've had computers with two wires sticking out for a power button. Touch the leads lightly and voilà, the computer starts. :) My point is that it's hard to fail when all you need is some kind of momentary switch. Perfect starting project if you are new to this. When drilling you want a nice hole. I...

Problem : I have a Antec Solo , Antec Sonata Plus 550(same design as solo) and Antec NSK-4482B EC. All of them have/had a power button problem (Only usign solo myself), instead of some superglue patchjob or new panel i was thinking of installing a new power button. So far the plan is : -drill a hole...

Ty for your reply , i went with the be quiet! 450w in the end , was on stock and not to expensive , should be more then enough for my spec normally. My second choice was the antec one but I was a bit to annyoed still by the neo 550W failure just out of warrenty.

It is not a good week for my antec sonata plus case i gave to my mother. The Antec Neo HE 550just died on me (just out of warenty i think sigh!!). The stupid power button breaks , can be fixed with glue but poorly designed if you ask me. And to finish it off, I scratched the nice black paint :(. Any...

again bluescreen but hey at least it lasted 7 days the system , petty ram prices are so high atm else i would just replace them.

[quote="b_rubenstein"]On a Gigabyte MB that setting has nothing to do with the RAM timing settings (those are found in the Memory settings). I've yet to run into a situation where if the memory and CPU were run at rated speed the Enhanced setting didn't work fine. However, the timing on the all the ...

Found a memory setting in bios that stands default on enhanchement or something and with big red letters "if you overlock put in on standaard to improve reliability!" Anyway put that on standard , no blue screen atm If it really was that settings very strange defualt settings

ran default tests with http://www.memtest.org/ LAST VERSION : 4.10 , made usb bootdisk

It ran true 3 cycles while i was swimmign for 2h30min , i let it run true thisnight i guess. During those 3 loops no errors detected

yeah a couple of times but only the one from windows , that starts after your reboot and never a problem.

[quote="tim851"] My money is on your Northbridge getting too hot. This will usually present with blue screens. An overheating PSU will result voltage drops which should always present with sudden reboots. Your unmodded (?) Be Quiet PSU should not overheat on your system. And 530W is about twice as m...

yes , nothing is modded and all are stuck i neatly in my antec solo. -I installed again World of warcraft but for this I pulled out one ram module because the installer kept crashing in random places, I dint believe people that had the same problem and they pulled out one ram module to solve it. And...

sigh , i stop test open firefox surf a bit around , bam blue screen

[quote="BlackWhizz"]Most probably its your mobo or ram. There are also some usb driver errors. Can u disable the USB3 controller? And then run OCCT?[/quote] I did that once before , but dint do much. Anyway i gave it a other try disabling stuff i don't treally need : -onboard serial port -onboard pa...

Well i downloaded OCCT , not sure what i had to run but i ran CPU:OCCT test , and well first time i ran after 1 minute it stopped saying error on core 1 , and second time it ran 2 minutes and gave error on core 1. But no clue what to do now.

Anyway nothign is overclocked tbh.

Well drivers i always updated to the latest ATi drivers(ATI-site) , P55A chipset drivers from gigabytes site , and updated bios everytime after 3th new bios i also just stucked with default bios settings. Memory test i ran a couple of times always with no errors. But yeah i can give it a try and run...

I bought a new pc like a couple of months ago. On my previous build i might get a bluescreen once every 6months or so playing WOW. On my new build the frequency is quiet a lot higher , and i having a hardtime to actually specify what is causing the errors. Spec : MSI Hawk 5770 Gigabyte P55A-UD3 Inte...

Been a while since installed a psu and well my intuition/ego tells me to not ask such a dumb question but anyway. In a standard ATX case with the powersuply mounting place topside , you install the powersuply with its fan pointing to the inside of the case? :roll: other way around doesn't really mak...

well depending on price guess , the hawk looks most impressive for quiet gaming. Petty no temperatures in the review. The hawk should run hotter with that small OC out of the box. I never really liked msi and saphire as a brand but those bad experience have been a while ago. But apperently some vapo...

;o what i read here so far is.


vapor > egg-cooler > reference ?

What about asus Cucore thingy?

:shock: for my new pc , going to buy a 5770 i think or maby 5750 But for the 5770 I have like 4 major cooler options. Default stock cooler for example http://www.alternate.be/html/product/prodPicPopup.html?artno=JCXXVA# Saphire vapor-x http://www.alternate.be/html/product/prodPicPopup.html?artno=JCX...

[quote] The ST50F-230 is a unit designed for use only in regions with 180 - 240V power outlets (Europe, Southeast Asia, etc...). 80 PLUS is based in USA which only tests PC PSUs at 115V so we can't submit the ST50F-230 for certification. However, it's fully capable of acheiving efficiency range simi...

mmm ty for the info and then I might just get the be quiet one

First thing first my spec processor 109,95 i3 530 moederbord 121,9 p55-giga-UD3R gehuegen 109,95 4gb gfx 128,95 ATI 5750 HD 60 WD-black 640gb DVD 20 samsung the i3 530 might be replaced by i5 750 and the ATI 5750 by a 5830(soon to be released) So well looking for anything between 450-600W I think Mo...

Ty for the tip. Was my first reaction to look for the antec solo. Might have found a shop that sells it around 80-90 euro's with a decend powersuply it will still run more expensive than my original sonata plus. Kinda stunned it is suddenly so hard to get. Antec like dropping the line and only selli...

I might be giving my pc away , just so they can keep working while I'll just replace it and do all the horrible checking for pc stuffzor. But I really love my sonata plus a)quiet b)looks , I really find 99% of cases out there just looking ridiculs c)in general easy to use d)NO DOOR, no stupid door (...

hey anyone that know some dust filter cloth , dont know which antec case i will buy but most of them have intake area next to the graphic cards. So going to find some velcro tape and stich a thick cloth or dustfilter on it. Cause the pc prob will stand somewhere on the floor in sometimes dustie area...
