Hello, right now I am waiting because nvidia is releasing new graphics cards in a couple of months and I want to see how the market turns out. As for the processor, I was thinking about the one you mentioned because it goes to 4 ghz and because I assume it is an evolution for the better of the other. The same memory at 2166 or whatever... but the fastest. And as for the motherboard... there I get lost. If the one you put is of the latest generation... well the price is very good. My case... well this week I put in a friend's nvidia 470 and it fit well. And it's not small. Anyway, when I recover from the blow, I'll put a matching one later.

Thanks for your opinion and goodbye!!!

Good morning.

After a couple of days, during which I had problems with the computer again, I found out that the generic DDR2 800 memory modules were causing continuous and intermittent beeps. When I replaced them with four 1 gigabyte HyperX Kingston modules at 667, the computer started to boot normally. The case is that I have managed to have it stable and 100% functional, but I have the impression that the motherboard is damaged. I say this because when I touch the memory with my hand, the heatsink is quite hot. Just a few minutes after turning on the PC and browsing the internet. I don't think this is normal.

On the other hand, can I do OC with these memories?? They lent me the 800 ones so I could overclock more easily and I have fried them. I bought the Nijna 3 to dissipate the heat from the micro and I think I will have it as a decoration.

Do you advise me to do something else? something simple or not worth it. I was about to give up because it wouldn't boot at all... and after fixing it, a colleague had another crash, probably due to overclocking at 3.7 of the micro, and that's when I fried the memories... but... do I continue?? do I leave it??

My micro is the E8500 revision C0. Not being E0,,, is it worse for overclocking??

Many thanks to all.
