im getting a nvidia geforce 560 ti tomorrow and i have a AMD athlon II x2 270 processor at 3.4 ghz, would i be able to play skyrim on medium settings at 1080p?
You may be experienced but it wasn't informative at all. And the products are delicate they way u were handling them could've broken it. Surpringly luck was on your side.
@mvdav10 I just clocked mine (old processor) at 3.3Ghz the noob way with 245Mhz FSB and 1333Mhz all auto timings on RAM. Ran stable 24 hours prime95, and temps at idle is just 28 to 30 degrees, and 40 to 45 degrees at full load. I didn't increase my voltages, but I'm happy with it. It's just cooled by an old athlon 64 quad-copper heat pipe cooler.
What games do you play on this rig, grant? I have the same processor. I'm upgrading to either a Deneb or Propus.
I am actually building a new rig based on parts from my SFF system. I will be placing the 215 into the new motherboard until I can upgrade to a quad in a couple months. But overall performance will increase drastically because I'm going from the worst onboard video solution to a GTS 250 1GB. In addition, I'm adding 2GB RAM totaling 5GB. Also adding a 600w Corsair PSU.
@gunnergrant12 Yeah, you have an i7 now, right? Very nice. The 215 is obviously an ultra low end dual core, sitting between the Celerons and Pentiums in performance terms. I wish I could go with an Intel motherboard and a Sandy Bridge CPU! Next year maybe!
It looked like you touched some of the pins there...bad. As well try not to put any pressure on the cpu when in the socket, to avoid bending pins. But other than that, nice!
That paste is magnifico. used it on my duel core e5700, and noticed a big performance difference, usually you dont, so what was on it before was probably shit.. and my pc runs cooler now.
@PlayerUnkown The Arctic Silver? That's exactly what I just ordered from the egg. I hear it's the best compound on the market. It bothers me that it was $4.99 with $6.99 shipping though! You know something Satanic and untoward is going on when the shipping is more than the cost of the item itself. But it's worth it apparently!
hey man i got this budget small gaming rig. This spec is last year i bought it. And now i have phenom x4 965, hd5750, gigabyte ga770t-d3l. :) Biostar motherboard is nice for budget small gaming rig. :)
@MrKomras The DDR3 that the graphics card says it has is a completely separate thing than the ram that goes on the motherboard. If your motherboard says DDR2 you can ONLY put DDR2 on it. However the motherboard will allow you to put any graphics card on it if its the same slot type, no matter the memory type in the graphics card itself. Example I have a computer with triple channel DDR3. My graphics card has DDR5.
Even though AMD CPUs are PGA they still use a ZIF socket. You have to lift the lever just like an Intel mobo and the cpu should drop in effortlessly. THEN you push the LEVER down to lock it in place. NEVER for any reason put pressure on a CPU, you will bend and break pins and ruin the CPU.
It is well known fact that there really isn't much software out there at the moment that uses the full potential of four cores or more. A new build im doing at the moment focuses more on the graphics card and ram used. If you want to build a good gaming pc skimp on the quad core technology, the extra Front bus speed isn't going to really make much difference, get a nice graphics card that supports GDDR5/6 ram and HDMI output, and nice motherboard ram
One question though. Arctic Silver's instructions clearly indicated you not spread the compound around and simply leave a drop in the middle. Why did you spread it?
I'll be building my own PC this summer and it's great I found a 10 minute video on how to put everything together. I figured it would be similarly simple. Thanks.
why are you using your finger with nothing on it, oils from your hand are going to go in the paste. use a bag and wrap it around your finger and then do what you were doing. nice video man, just wanted to give you the tip.
@SylentCommando Shouldn't be using his finger or card or paper or anything... SHould jsut be putting it in the middle and using the pressing force of the heatsink being pressed down to spread it...
I have an AMD Athlon X2 245 processor 2.90GHz I wanna upgrade it to an AMD Athlon X4 3.00GHz do u think my CPU will run it there both an AM3 plzz help
I don't see you wearing a wrist strap for grounding, to disipate static. You might be wearing an ankle strap, but I don't think you mentioned it. While the components might work after installation, they might have been degraded by static electricity. But I'm sure you are aware of this and just didn't mention it in the video. Great video by the way. Thanks for making it.
My pc is gonna be a lot like that, i'm getting the x2 220, very similar, i'm getting a similar board, and the exact same ram, but i'm getting an hd 5670
@09hudsond Yeah but they run a little hot, by little I mean I can cook eggs on it . I'm upgrading to a phenom II x2 560. More powerful and only 80watts, compared to the 125 for the 6000+
I hope the other two cores unlock. I'd even be happy if only one of them did.
Most games out there only use two threads which means only TWO cores of the chip will be used. THis is a fact man.
I'm getting a Phenom II X2 560, and it will be more powerful from a a gaming standpoint than A phenom II X4 955. Unless you overclock it.
I mean, quads are good for gaming, but in the prossess of playing a game, only two maybe three of the cores will be of any use. You can research this if you like man.
80gig, eh? hope it aint IDE, cuz if it is, thats a severe bottleneck right there. I have a 2nd rig with a 80GB maxtor IDE drive, and its slow as hell. it has acoustic management turned on, thats why, but I cant turn it off... need a floppy and some files which disappeared in 2006. Also: I dont have floppies anymore, so im stuck.
Woah, when you were pushing the pc into the socket i was like ":O!!!" in RL! Btw why would you install windows VISTAA!? why not windows xp or windows 7? vista is trash :(!
DUDE YOU CAN"T TOUCH THE CPU U WILL GET YOU GRESS ON IT AND IT WONT BE SO EFFICENT ALSO WWWWAAAAAYYYY TOOOO MUUCCCHH PREEESSSSER WEN UU INSTALLEDD TO CCPU
The way you spread the thermal paste was wrong. Now you may disagree but spreading it by hand can cause air bubbles when you put your cooler on. There are much easier ways.
ur a dumb ass , go fuck off, most games nowaday u need a quad core otherwise lagg started to happen cause most game nowaday doesnt just run on GPU power but it required lots of power from the CPU
@coolgames14 Its called building a cheap pc. I did not expect record breaking 3D mark scores so a dual was all I needed to play what I was playing at the time. Obviously lol.
i didnt ask for u to break the 3d mark record but building it like that is just like building a grand new pc, got 300 bucks u can do a bit better than that
well, this guy is on a budget, so no phenom gonna be use, but if he like dual core, maybe a phenom dual core should do the trick, a phenom dual core cost much as the athlon quad core, it should ran around 3.00+ with unlock multiplier
Actually, an Athlon II x3 is enough. And only because sometimes the third core can take care of some multitasking. Most games use only two cores and rely mostly on the GPU.
@coolgames14 its a myth that quad cores are faster at playing games than duals. most games (except warcraft that can be played on most laptops anyway) take advantage of multi-cores. Warcraft can only use 3 cores.
Quad cores are only good for rendering and editing tasks compared to duals.
@coolgames14 quad cores suck. period. dualcores still own the gaming market since quad cores dont outperform them in any POPULAR games. and no, GTA IV isnt popular, its a fail.
Rofl research out of your ass you poor little chink. Im not a fanboy of anything, and I dont have a quad but a 1090T so learn what the fuck you are talking about before u let shit out of your ass.
All modern games favour Quad and will soon favour hexacores. Go fucking try a dual core in Bad company 2 and then a quad, then talk shit
lol sorry buddy but when u try to video editing or fraps it's gonna be a pain in the ass cause it gonna took forever and alot of lagg will occur so u know what, u should choke on a stick ^^
@coolgames14 Explain how I am trolling? Also, I have more information to offer here than you ever will. Besides, you appear to be the one trolling. Not I.
never ever touch the pins on the cpu and never ever push down on the cpu...your first build huh? lucky you didnt screw the chip before you even tried to post.
Hello, I am pretty new to PCs and your video was very helpful. I have the exact same motherboard and I am trying to install a Geforce 8500 GT 256mb to play some old games. Once I turned on the computer, I noticed that the colors and resolution was messed up. I went ahead and installed the drivers and updates, but the messed up colors are resolution still persisted. I reinstalled the drivers and the problem still persists. Do you have any idea what the problem could be?
@jony763248 Make sure your video card is pressed all the way in the slot and pressed down into the board. Then check all of your connections going to your monitor.
@jony763248 hey jony it sounds like artifacts if its not just a simple color/resolution problem... hopefully its not artifacts because if it is then you will have to rma the card
Hey guys, i am new to pc's and am building my first one! i have this motherboard in this video. Question is, my case has room for four 80mm case fans. Will they all be able to plug into the motherboard? Do they plug into the power supply? how does this work? I have a Corsair TX650w power supply.
@saikimimaru Most case fans plug into a 4 pin connector on your power supply. There are I believe two plugs on the motherboard for a fan, but those are 3 pin fan connectors and not really used much. Your best bet is probably going to be having 4 pin molex fans so you can plug them into your board.
@gunnergrant12 mmm thats awesome! hey my dad wants to buy an OEM rig from HP, (doesnt want me to build 1 for him sadly) and it comes with the athlon x2 215. now im wondering, how does it fair in office work, windows 7 environment and watching videos. Does it take long to boot up? do videos lag? hows it perform and stuff? i cant find many reviews on this
@bIittIe Negative. I made sure my $48,000 a year college tuition is payed for before I spent a lot of money on a PC. Now that I am being payed $28 and hour I can start saving for it. Jealous?

@mikethemighty1 it runs as a twelve core when hyper threading is enabled. Also I never said I wanted a dual socket board xD. Read again before posting something like that.
You shouldn't have got that motherboard because it has the nvidia Nforce 430 chipset and thats old. I have the same chipset as you do but on a different motherboard. that chipset bottlenecks my ati 5770 and people told me that if I get a amd 790X chipset motherboard I would get a nice improvement. You should get a newer motherboard one day that has a new chipset. (newer chipsets still also support ddr2 and am2 cpus) And you will get a improvement in games.
@AdvancedGamer52439 I am a college student, do you know what that means? That means, Limited amount of money. As of now I do not have 1k to spend. I know what I am doing when it comes to building computers, and at the time, in order to fit the parts I already had, that motherboard was the best option.
@gunnergrant12 Oh lol srry my bad. Yeah I have very limited amount of money to and I only get my money on my birthdays and xmases. When I went to my local computer store my MSI K9N6PGM2-V was the cheapest motherboard in the store.
@pandjabimc lol. as I have stated many times already, I said this PC was nothing special. Please read the most recent comments and my replies before making yourself look dumb and misspelling half of your sentences.

Athlon II X2 is nice mate. :) I sold my 240, but now I'm going to get a new one. I overclocked it to like 3,7 GHz, so it was pretty fast.
MrCoqTail 1 year ago
well, this guy is on a budget, so no phenom gonna be use, but if he like dual core, maybe a phenom dual core should do the trick, a phenom dual core cost much as the athlon quad core, it should ran around 3.00+ with unlock multiplier

@coolgames14
And you have the chance to unlock it.
Nevertheless a Athlon II X2 is fine.. The diffence between an X2 or an X4 in the most games is nihil.
MrCoqTail 1 year ago
@coolgames14
Actually, an Athlon II x3 is enough. And only because sometimes the third core can take care of some multitasking. Most games use only two cores and rely mostly on the GPU.
Lawnsu 1 year ago
for crying out loud, like i told u, game nowaday games rely on cpu power too, a dual core is an example of why ur FPS drop
coolgames14 1 year ago
@Lawnsu yep, I did my research and invested in a athlon ii x3 440
It uses all 3 cores in quad-core supported games (most are only use 2 of the physical cores)
so exactly like you said, when a game is being played, 9/10 it's going to have a spare core for background applications.
people just want the biggest number of cores to shout out to there mate, be smart!
athlon ii x3 440 is about 50-70 pounds and can play anygame on the market at 60fps with a decent graphics card. puttin a 5770 in mine

@coolgames14 its a myth that quad cores are faster at playing games than duals. most games (except warcraft that can be played on most laptops anyway) take advantage of multi-cores. Warcraft can only use 3 cores.
Quad cores are only good for rendering and editing tasks compared to duals.

Hello, I am pretty new to PCs and your video was very helpful. I have the exact same motherboard and I am trying to install a Geforce 8500 GT 256mb to play some old games. Once I turned on the computer, I noticed that the colors and resolution was messed up. I went ahead and installed the drivers and updates, but the messed up colors are resolution still persisted. I reinstalled the drivers and the problem still persists. Do you have any idea what the problem could be?

@jony763248 Make sure your video card is pressed all the way in the slot and pressed down into the board. Then check all of your connections going to your monitor.

@jony763248 hey jony it sounds like artifacts if its not just a simple color/resolution problem... hopefully its not artifacts because if it is then you will have to rma the card

Hey guys, i am new to pc's and am building my first one! i have this motherboard in this video. Question is, my case has room for four 80mm case fans. Will they all be able to plug into the motherboard? Do they plug into the power supply? how does this work? I have a Corsair TX650w power supply.
saikimimaru 1 year ago
@saikimimaru Most case fans plug into a 4 pin connector on your power supply. There are I believe two plugs on the motherboard for a fan, but those are 3 pin fan connectors and not really used much. Your best bet is probably going to be having 4 pin molex fans so you can plug them into your board.

You shouldn't have got that motherboard because it has the nvidia Nforce 430 chipset and thats old. I have the same chipset as you do but on a different motherboard. that chipset bottlenecks my ati 5770 and people told me that if I get a amd 790X chipset motherboard I would get a nice improvement. You should get a newer motherboard one day that has a new chipset. (newer chipsets still also support ddr2 and am2 cpus) And you will get a improvement in games.
