no thats right around normal for cards now my 260gtx gets to around 80c when playin crysis thats just the normal range for them amazingly, if it ever gets to 85-90c + then u should prbly think about geting better case and or fans for better air flow other then that no need to worry about it

Yeah a frame or 2 while also having an all around better OS is worth it to me and a lot of people. Duckman5
thats what i was thinkin cuase Vista is still a bugy PoS of an OS still after the 2nd service pack least my experince with it. so long as Win7 is stable with less bugs ill pick it up. oh n to answer other guy specs r - c2d @3ghz, 4gb ddr2 800mhz, x-fi extreme gamer , BFG GTX260

My girlfriends mother has just bought a new computer and her old one is going to my girlfriend. She's got a sapphire x800 card in the computer, and I have my old HIS x800 card sitting around doing nothing. Im just wondering is it possible to set them up together even though thier different manufactures?

[QUOTE="1337wii1337"]

Currently, MY PC Doesn't have alot of room to breathe, as its stuck in a tower cage I guess you would call it, basically a place on your desk where you can set your tower, it probably has like 1-2 feet to breathe..

This led me to think is my PC getting too hot?

sometimes temp1 2 and 3 go up too about 52c highest I ever seen was 54ish.

Is this good? Do i need to worry about overheating.

your comp is fine if it only gets up to 54c thats right around normal

[QUOTE="Wasdie"]

I right now have a Intel Core 2 Duo E6600 overclocked to 3.0ghz paired with 4 gigs of A-Data DDR 800 ram and a XFX 4890 1gb graphic card.

How bad is this bottleneck for my graphic processor? I feel that the CPU is really limiting the potential performance of my graphic card. Any words of wisdom? I am thinknig of upgrading my CPU and PSU to match the needs of my graphic card. I have only a 520 watt power supply now. I want to up that to 750 watts and replace the CPU with a Q6600.

Any thoughts?

your CPU is fine i highly doubt thats its bottlenecking ur GPU if at all very little...but hey if u have the money to spend it never hurts to have a better CPU i guess

just like the guy above said change the power supply and the GPU and youll be good for awhile the ones that he listed would work just fine.

I would wait for price drops if it were me. that E6750 should be performing great still. darkmagician06
iagree im still usein a E6320 at 3.0Ghz and its runin just fine, i would say dont even bother with the Q9550 id wait save a little more money and just jump to the new I7
