<0> you 100 % i cant over clock?
<0> i will not kill it
<0> <1> you sure?
<0> but i got amd ffs
<1> Oh ya? I bet you can't over clock it.
<0> all amd should be over clock
<0> noob hk?
<0> gigabyte
<1> I bet you couldn't even overclock a celeron.
<0> gigabyte ga k8 ns ultra 939
<0> ahha :P
<0> i overclock manny :P
<0> but this is new bios
<0> and new competer
<1> Having a bit of trouble this time, no?
<0> jepp
<0> maby its the bios i got?
<0> or the motherbord dont support overclock?
<0> all amd athonl most support over clock?
<0> pentium thats hard to clock
<2> whats goin on guys
<2> any new darma for today?
<2> besides the usual stainer?
<2> Topic for #hardware is: Computer Hardware, ask and be patient | No ***hattery allowed | English only | stainer72 is a noob
<2> hahaha
<2> I just say that
<2> saw*
<3> My friend and I are building a computer. He has a 6600 GS video card and it works well except when he boots up Windows, it complains about not having enough power or not having it set up right. How can we fix this?
<4> get a better psu
<4> (duh)
<3> its 400 watts; that should be plenty
<4> umm
<4> no
<4> 400 watts noname
<4> or 400 watts brand?
<3> how many watts is a "good psu"
<4> right, n00b
<4> it's not about watts
<4> it's about ams
<4> amps
<4> and obviously your no-name one-rail PSU can't supply the required amps
<4> so go out and buy a brand name psu
<3> like....
<4> there's a reason they're expensive
<4> Antec, Enermax, Seasonic,
<4> Zalman
<3> Is their anyway to just make the message disapear so it doesnt appear on start up
<4> the stuff that's expensive that you neglected to look at
<4> Darkhack: yes, SUPPLY ENOUGH POWER
<3> with the current psu, I mean.
<3> so it will just ignore it
<4> with your level of knowledge, no
<4> this requires soldering
<3> Settings?! HA HA HA! Thats for noobs. Lets make they solder
<4> and you should be kicking yourself in the *** for buying no name
<4> Darkhack: there's a reason they DON'T supply a driver setting
<4> you don't have enough current to power the box
<4> and you WILL damage components
<4> if you continue running in that configuration
<4> but obviously you're too stupid to get that
<4> that's precisely WHY it'll bug you to no end
<2> dude
<2> GET A NICE POWERSUPPLY
<2> no name generic ones can fry
<2> damage components
<2> seriously effect performance
<4> Fidelity: more like WILL FRY
<3> right.... I'll just wait till someone less bias can answer my question.
<4> Darkhack: you'll get the same answer from just about everyone in here
<2> ...
<2> are you kidding?
<2> that is what noobs mess up the most in building a pc
<2> the power supply.
<2> you cant skimp on it
<4> Fidelity_: actually, it's just a matter of physics
<2> that message is appearing for a reason you ***
<4> he needs enough electrons to power the box
<4> WHICH HE DOESN'T HAVE
<2> taking it away is not going to do anything
<4> Fidelity_: actually the only way to take it away is to solder more rails and capacitors onto the psu pcb
<4> which gets us to square one, BUY another psu
<3> We realize the message is their for a reason. We have plenty of watts to power it. Its just being a bitch and wants us to be a bit higher than the threshold which we see no point in doing.
<2> no
<2> 400 watts on a generic psu is NOTHING
<2> that thing is not sufficient
<4> Darkhack: watts = current*volts
<2> 450 watts on an antec maybe
<2> or enermax
<4> you don't have enough Current
<2> or zalman
<2> or fortron
<2> or sparkle
<4> and you'll never get enough current on a no-name psu
<2> or ocz
<3> since when does brand name determine the amount of power it produces? This is what I mean about bias.
<4> Darkhack: since no name manufacturers started messing with poor quality circuits to get the price down
<4> which has been going on for over a decade
<2> i dont care which brand you get
<4> actually I should be saying, poor quality non-verified/certified circuits
<2> but it should be brand name
<2> because they are known to make quality powersupplies
<4> agreed
<3> look good -- http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817103937
<2> enermax, fortron, antec, ocz, sparkle, pc power and cooling, pick any of them
<2> that would be 100x better than what you have
<4> you forgot seasonic
<2> also
<4> uhh dude you don't need 500W
<2> make sure the molex connector is plugged into the card...
<4> wtf are you powering?
<2> I sometimes forget that
<4> a 6600GS, mobo, hd and dvd-rw right?
<3> lol Fidelity, I'll try not to. :p
<4> a 400W Antec would be plenty for that
<2> just saying
<2> did you make sure its plugged in?
<4> actually you could probably even get away with a 350W
<3> Yes, it works, just not enough power
<4> you could hang 6 hds off a 500W beast
<4> or SLI
<4> well... maybe 8
<2> no
<2> THE MOLEX CONNECTOR
<2> on the graphics card
<2> to the power supply
<2> ..
<4> Fidelity: and they wonder why each admin over 40 has high blood pressure
<2> hahah
<2> I know
<2> dont do 350
<2> id go with 400 minimum
<2> recommend 450
<4> ya me too
<4> but if it's a good 350 you could get away with it
<4> I wouldn't bet money on that though
<4> but 500W is overkill
<2> heh
<2> in my new pc im putting a 510watt pc power and cooling
<2> such a beast
<4> 510?
<2> pretty much equals 650watt from any other brand
<2> you heard of pc power and cooling?
<2> beafiest power supplies around..
<3> brb
<2> http://www.pcpowercooling.com/home/
<2> they make 1.1kw models
<2> KILOWH4TT
<4> pfft
<4> stop trying to power the USS Enterprise with your psu
<4> :P
