Thats a limitation of 32 bit OS, u can only use 3GB, if u want to use all 4 GB then u gotta get urself a 64 bit OS,

U dont really need those programs, unless ur going to overclock, those programs just push ur PC and see if the PC is stable.

I also have 4GB ram, and w8ing for windows 7 to go 64 bit, im gonna skip vista completly

Then all u need is prime 95, the other programs just monitor ur PC, if u list ur PC specs then maybe some of us can say if it will run crysis or not

Then if ur not overclocking, u dont need any of those, just listen if the fans r working, just get some basic hardware monitor

Chek ur connections, is the gpu being powered, dont know bout the 4890 but the 295 needs the 6pin psu cable connected, otherwise it doesnt hav enuf power

Drivers?

i just installedFolding at home GPui have no idea what that is.... It came with CCC or something like that, Whenever i click on CCC it nevers comes up why? Ok here are the pics, tell me if anything is wrong. The only thing i think is wrong is why is my HD4890 at 65C With No LOAD.

I Installed CCC as well but i can't open it. Does anyone know how?

OK here are the pics:

Did you install drivers?

Try google folding@home, theres ur answer, if ur running that and u get 65c, then chek ur gpu fan. That new card shouldnt b running that hot, even doing folding.

Correct me if im wrong

Np. i worked out CCC, and i bumped the fans to 70% according to CCC the activity ( im guiessing load is) 99% and the Temp is 55C. Is that good? How do i know if the video card is overheating or getting to hot when i play a game like crysis for example?RedxSniper
