Okay, just got my new computer.
Great, other than a few kinks:
-I forgot that I'm gonna need Wi-Fi compatibility in my house, given the location of the computers and router. That means I'm gonna need a Wireless-N Networking adapter, which aren't too cheap. Locally, the lowest the Linksys WMP300N is going for is $90.
-My speakers don't want to function, and they came with no CD. I've been using Logitech forever, and they've usually served me just fine..
-I can't use my damn flash drive to transport crap from this computer for some reason. Probably don't have UPnP?


Otherwise, it's cool. S.T.A.L.K.E.R. came with the motherboard, and I maxed out the settings! That's the first fucking time I've been able to say that since 1999!

you don't need a wireless n networking adapter, they are all backwards compatible from linksys afaik

speakers not working means sound not working means drivers not there means go to the mobo makers and find your drivers

flash not working is also not having drivers is go to makers site and find drivers


and you have a good pc then
specs and pics or it didn't happen

You think you have problems?



And if I turn my pc off to let it cool, it won't start again (busted PSU)


Gah.

a gpu can run about 20 degree higher then a cpu .. my gpu reaches about 80 ... and it is really really hot to touch ... but it can handle it (gonna switch soon though ... want a better one)

my cpu on the other hand runs smoothly at around 50-60

Mine is the same as Khuskan's. However it has nothing more then a custom fan.

My hard drive runs at 47, I should probably be worried about that?

LOL I have a small box fan in place of the side casing. That LIL bitch fan wasn't helping...computer no longer runs hot

Yay.
I bought a network card and I fixed the speakers.
Still no Flash Drive compatibility though, even though it works with my old computer. Also, I got an iPod Touch the other day (took my old Classic to Costco), and it doesn't seem to be able to connect to my network. Finally, I can't start up any steam games, it just reboots my fucking computer and gives me a "Windows has recovered from a serious error" message on startup.
