Yep, I do think I'd rather spend time staring at your computer than at you. The glasses look good on you though (I don't think you were wearing them in your previous pics, were you?).

ah,this is my new baby

This is a refurbished laptop that I bought a few months ago.

My printer is an HP Photosmart C7180 All In One printer, fax, scanner, and copier that runs on my WiFi
net. Here are a couple sites that you might try to measure your computers performance:

And yes my avatar/sig is a screen shot I made morning.

I don't even know anymore.

Ahh wonderful, I was going to create a topic just like this, thankfully it's all here

Mainboard: XFX n780i
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad CPU Q6700 @ 2.66GHz (4 CPUs), OC'ed to 3.8ghz.
CPU-Cooler: Zalman 9700.
Memory: Apacer PC-6400 8191MB DDR-II RAM, 800 MHZ stock speed, overclocked to 1030MHZ, now running the n780i allowing an unlinked divider (allows me to run the CPU speed and RAM speed separately even though they're on the same bus ) Timings: 5-5-5-15, loosened timings to attain the high OC. 4 x 2GB sticks. There was an upgrade before this that I didn't mention in this topic. The upgrade from the G. Skill PC-6400 sticks to the Kingston HyperX PC-8500 4 sticks.
Hard Drive: 2x 500GB (1TB) drives, SATAII.
Video Card: 2 x NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GT in SLI
Monitor: Philips 200WS
Computer Case: Antec 'Nine-Hundred'.
Sound Card: Creative SB Audigy
Speakers/Headphones: Creative HN-700
Keyboard: Generic does the trick
Mouse: Logitech MX-400
Mouse Surface: Gel Pad
Operating System: Windows Vista™ Ultimate 64 bit to support the 8GB of ram.

*open mouthed shock*

It's not spectacular and I'm not rich and ungrateful. The computer market is flying, it's virtually impossible to keep up. ATM I'm working to tackle Crysis, overclocking the GPUs, attempting volt mods by changing the level resistance on the resistors to increase the GPUv and MEMv. All of the 8800GTs use Qimonda memory which hits a wall at 1000 MHz (2000 effective); they say some of the Galaxy 8800GT cards are now manufactured with Hynx and Samsung RAM which is rated to reach far into 2200 effective. I've experimented by saving up for an 8800GT from their range and it's apparently true, I was able to hit an easy 2200 MHz without touching voltage which is quite impressive.

There are a few major things I've got to change on my rig. And an upgrade to a 1200 watt PSU with a MINIMAL amount of 40amps on the 12v rail(s).

The 9900GT is on its way and the 99xx series will be using the GT200, an EXTREMELY power hungry processor despite the fact that the fabrication process remains unchanged from the G92 (65nm). Speculations are going around that it'll consume over 50amps, however, I find this untrue and bullshit.

I'll also be upgrading to the n790i Ultra SLI for the DDR-3 upgrade I plan on doing. Providing my boss doesn't sack me from my high payed job in this industry (BLOODY SALES) I might be able to do what I love doing.

I..I...I think I'm in love

seriously though.
wow.

you know your ***

you got any idea what ailed me with my 8800GTS?

With the errors you encountered I suggest checking your clock speeds. If they're not unbelievably high I would either flash the BIOS with standard clocks (if it's a factory overclocked model) or RMA the entire card and attempt to get it replaced. Seeing as you don't have it anymore you can remember to PM me in future if anything goes wrong in the latter.

I still have it, its sitting in its ASD bag, my 3870 hasnt arrived yet.

it was factory overclocked. I'm going to send it back, get it replaced if I can. I hear that it will be replaced with an 8800GT 512, that true?

You mean GTS right? If so, you need to specify that you want a GTS (512mb) which is basically the G92, that baby is a performer I'll have you know that. You'll most-likely end up with a G92.

I recently built a new computer:

Case: Antec Nine Hundred gaming case
PSU: OCZ GameXStream 600W
Motherboard: Asus M2R32-MVP
Chipset: AMD CrossfirexPress 3200
CPU: AMD Athlon64 X2 5600+ 2.8GHz
Cooler: Arctic Cooling Alpine 64
RAM: 4GB DDR800
Hard Drive: Maxtor 500GB SATA-II with 32MB Cache
External storage: Seagate 250GB external USB 2.0 hard disk.
Optical drives: Toshiba-Samsung DVD ReWriter 20x
No floppy drive - because they're old now.
Graphics: Powercolor ATI Radeon HD 3870 with 512MB GDDR4 VRAM
Fans: 2 front 120cm fans in middle and top HD cages (bottom one cools the hard drive), Rear 120cm fan, Top 200cm fan lets the heat out very nicely!
Monitor: 19" Samsung SyncMaster 931c LCD.
Soundcard: Sound Blaster X-FI XTremeAudio PCI.
Front speakers: Active 85N.
Rear speakers: Unknown make, SK-A30.
Onboard Gigabit LAN.
Devices: Logitech black PS/2 keyboard with Windoze and menu keys, Technika 800cpi optical mouse, Logitech Dual Action joypad, Logitech Forumla Force EX wheel, Microsoft Sidewinder 2 joystick.
OS: Windows Vista Home Premium SP1.

This machine is built to be upgraded whenever I need to do so.

oh, FYI; that problem I was having with my card?

it carried over to my new 3870.

so I changed out the first two sticks of RAM, just as a test, with some faster Corsair stuff. success! no crashes...yet.
