GeForce 9500GT On A Crappy PC.

I doubt buying a 5770 for this computer will be a smart thing.

I am getting the money today,
But I have to wait one more day because my bank has given me $100 because I joined with them.
I have to wait because the bank to process everything.

So XFX Radeon HD 5670 512MB ?
1GB?

If forget about the CPU cooler I could get a the 1GB.
But that cooler seems so awesome!

And turns out that I was wrong about waiting one day for my bank to process everything, I actually have to wait 10 days ! :cry:

You think it's worth buying the Evercool cooler?
Even though am not going to overclock.
I might think about upgrading the CPU.

you can get a cheaper cpu cooler good quality if you are not over clocking .

you can always spend 15 bucks and grab the hyper 101 cooler for intel chips those wrok well even better with a 2 fan set up push and pull

if you want to get the cpu cooler and the card you would be out of atleast 135 out of pocket just my specualtion .

Yet the taxes are different in AZ then CA

Today I stopped by my friends house and picked the stock Intel CPU heatsink.
And I was thinking about testing this one, but then I need to buy the thermal paste which roughly costs around ten bucks. It's no biggie, but if I was to buy a new cooler, it would already come with thermal paste included. So it would be silly to buy the thermal paste if I can just buy them cooler and the thermal in one.


Now, what do you mean by the taxes are different from California then to Arizona?
I thought you don't pay tax when you buy online. lol (That's just what I've heard)

Also, today I finally downloaded Speccy from Piriform to check the temperature on the CPU now.
I was really surprised to see that it was up to 40c just by having Google Chrome running.
Now am sure I need to replace the thermal paste, or the heatsink because that's really high for a crappy CPU.

lol,
Troll?

I really want that cooler!
But I think it's best if I get the 1GB graphics.
I think it might be better.

I'll get the cooler if I ever upgrade the CPU though,
Am sure about that.

You know, it's funny because at first I thought about getting a 9500GT.
Those are wayy outdated now-a-days.
Kinda like my PC.

I cannot explain how much I stress thinking about not upgrading this PC, and just save up for a AMD or a new Intel machine.
DDR3 memory seems so inexpensive than DDR2 memory!
