New Setup
Ssssssoooooo I finally built my first comp that actually works :D
i5 4690k 3.5GHz Pro4 ASRock mobo Radeon R9 270 video card 600W power supply 8G R.A.M 24-inch Acer monitor Windows 7(F*CK 8..it pisses me off)
Currently isntalling all my drivers and shit so haven't been able to test it out on any games or anything but I'm pretty excited since the last comp I tried to build wouldn't ever work. So yay :D been saving up a to be able to do this and I was finally able to do it. Hopefully I can get back to pwning some newbs on GO and League and playing some Beat Hazard and D3 soon enough!

Re: New Setup
Windows 7 & 8 users will get the free upgrade. If you are running anything older you don't get shit! I will upgrade my laptop first to see how I like it since anything is better then Windows 8. My tower is Windows 7 and it will stay that till I see what 10 is like.

Re: New Setup
How's that R9?? I just upgraded my Radeon HD 7770 to a R7 250X...mainly because I don't have money for anything higher....

Re: New Setup
Oh I'm F*CKING loving it right now. Although.....I've been having some problems with the BSoD :l I'll be playing a game and then it'll do this thing where the game will freeze, and then not respond..resulting in me having to force close it with task manager. And then I'll try to go to play something else and then I'll just get a BSoD. I mean this system isn't even a month old. So I'm kinda pissed.
The person that helped me build it said that it was just compatibility between windows and the drivers on my graphics card, and that I just need to update them. Both of them are up to date ssssoooo idk what's causing this to happen. Thought about overheating, but my mobo temp was fine as well as my graphics card, and cpu. I took a picture of it when it happened once so I'll see if I can't get that picture up here for all you nerds/geeks that know more than I do :P
But other than that Joe, I absolutely love the card!

Re: New Setup
600W Why so weak? I put in a 1000W two years ago, I didn't think they still sold 600W power supplies.....Hmmmm
(just kidding)

Re: New Setup
NOPE. It ended up being my mobo. No F*CKING idea what happened, but something happened to it so I returned it and got an ASUS z97-AR instead. Oh and I got a new case as well. Got myself a Corsar 760 T Graphite Series.
Yea yea yea, I'm posting 7 days later after last post...I've been really busy helping watch my niece and nephew, and working a lot for dem moneys so yes, I'm posting late since I actually have time off today
