hey, mine did this too. if your computer blinks the blue light, and monitor blinks, like it went to sleep or something, then you want to get a new video card.
one thing, you have to choose between the new vid card or the card with the cable and bullshit. get the vid card or your MOBO will melt.
@FlStudioUser i fixed this problem by adding two 120mm fans. One on the back as a exhaust fan and the other fan on the side panel (attached with wire). I used the second fan as a intake (bring cool air into the case).
@FlStudioUser ALSO! MAKE SURE TO BUY FANS WITH MOLEX CONNECTORS OR YOU WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PLUG IN THE FAN!!! I bought a fan with a molex connector/ spliter so that i could have the second fan connected to the first fan. Good luck! btw you can also put a 80mm fan in the front of the case as a intake fan!
Not all refurbished items are bad, and like my other post I got a refurbished AMD based Emachines from Tiger for my sis. It made a great basic Vista system, and saved me $100/$200, then buying a new machine. Refrubished items get a bad rep cause of some sorry companies that don't do proper checks on there stuff before sending it back out, how ever Gateway/Emachines does a great job with there refurbished stuff.
intel is beetern than amd in most all benchmarks....the phenom quad is realy slow hot and not overclockebal......when you want a amd processor buy a phenom 2 this is the first processor wich can be compared to intel q6600/q9450/sometimes also to the i7
but i would buy an intel processor.......q6600 or the e8400/8200
Intel may win in some bench marks, but i would still get a really good AMD machine, as they don't break the bank, and they run well enough for most people. Drop in a nice ATI video card, max out the ram, and you have a nice mid range game machine. Intel to me has always just either been over priced or underpowered. Intel has no balance in that respect.
wellll at the moment yes, but it was for along time. AMD was originally part of intel that just 'tricked' out there cpus. however there quads suck, and there tricores are laughable
No they where never part of intel, IBM at the time, required there be at least 2 sources of CPUs. AMD was, and still is it's own company just they liscensed some patents from Intel, so they did not have to reverse enginer the chips. AMD Tri/quads actually run really well, and better on Air cooling then Intel.
opps my bad. yeah im not bashing amd, iv been called a amd fanboy, but compared to intels quads they are prettty useless. but still i dont even use quads, most things still seem to be optimised for dual cores, my amd 6000+ x2 gets a higher rank on average on tomshardware charts than the famed Q6600.
Yes most things at the moment, are for Dual cores and, benchmarks aside, far as my wallet goes i will stick with AMD. AMD allows me to build 2 new decent computers for the price of around or less then one Intel machine.
For the money, I would say so, if your looking for prebuilt machine. Also remeber Gateway makes Emachines computers, with some of the same, or close specs, and the Emachines are not that bad for a common computer, and there price. Tech Support is great also. I have an old rare Gateway with an AMD 1000mhz slotA Athalon Processor, I keep around for a backup Linux machine, and it still runs well, and it was bought in 2000. AMD for Me has laster long then any Intel I have ever owned.
Yes it would be the Emachines models, as gateway makes them as well. They run nice and cool with good fans, and work hard, and last a damn long time. Emachines would be great machines for your task now that Gateway owns them. I got one on sale from Tiger for around $200US, and with upgrades cost me about $250US, and made a great basic vista machine for my sis, and her family, as a nice family christmas gift.
Can someone help me i can't get the RCA inputs to work!
