get a 690 2 cooler master case. a psu from corsair 750W like someone said already. and add 50$ more to that cpu to get the x6 1055t which is a 6 core cpu.
when I got this computer 4 yrs ago I thought it was great and fast, just added a GeForce 6600 and then later a Creative XFI card. I really didnt play games much then. But instead of getting a ps3 or xbox I decided to do it the pc way.This pc cant even play blu-ray movies :(

it can by "other means" anyway just try to sell ur computer if u can. and have the forum build u a gaming computer for ur budget! or keep ur computer for spare parts like the HDD and dvd rom but still. i have seen budgets with 300$ up to 3000$ and all builds were good.
actually I can playDirt 2 on ultra settings, but the sounds in the video parts just skip[s as does it freeze during those parts as well. weird I know. But that game is so flawed anyway, although it could be my cpu that keeps me from starting the 2nd race...idk. I tried the patch and it wont even install for some reason.

instead of buying a whole new rig or trading, why not just fix urs? whast ur current specs? also that sounds like a drivers issue with the sound cad.
Just consider that I am knowledgeable and the symptoms you are having are not hardware related, but hey if you don't believe me go and buy yourself a new HDD and install windows on it. Better yet just format the one you have and reinstall and I assure you the issue wont continue because it's corruption/malware in your system.

he doesnt understand that there is more on the internet then just a virus. im pretty sure he has no idea what a virus even does. any who some people clearly said the best solution for ur problemo. u need to reformat that hdd and do a nice clean FRESH install of windows XX w/e u have and install ur drivers and programs that u trust! not the same c*** u installed that caused this problem. oh and get 1 anti virus program and that's it. i suggest AVAST home edition.
Like everyone suggested 212+ is great and you def get low temps, but it got noisier than before, yet not to a noticeable level though. Because usually you'd be playin music/video/games. And I also had to take off one of my side fans to fit that cooler in my case.
Oh and in some cases you dont have to take the MB off, if there's an opening at the back, you can install the bracket w/o removing the MB.

he said he has a antec 900. so yes he does, and u do have to do that for all the coolers. i dont understand why dont u get the 212+? i mean it fits in ur antec just take off the side fan and problem is solved.
lmao, conesdanially i dont no how to spell :P but i got the ANTEC 900 case 1 and i have this cooler of course :D but yes it is very quiet when its idling and even when its on a full load as well. but i have full fans in my case so i dont no what setup u have. but fitting it in there was a tad bit tricky, i had to mod my side fan alittle by cutting it but nothing to big. i can post some pics if u would like.
Edit: idk why it came out black. Also i want to mention that i oced my cpu which is a E7400 to 3.36 GHz and its at temps of 25C and 41C load. very good cooler, im thinking of doing a push pull setup with it.
the best deal in the world is a Hyper 212+. amazing well no, BEST ocer for the price. its within a MEGAhelm's power with the mega having a kaze on there. its only like 3C hotter. but for the amazing price of 30$ a steal.
