Benchmark Scores bench...mark? i do leave mark on bench sometime, to remember which one is the most comfortable. :o
Greiver: those PSU wattage estimators have nothing to do with reality, they're a gimmick. Completely agree on that 'driver booster' software, and anything like it.
they give a better approximation than what manufacturer recommend ... and i never got betrayed by that one :p

ie: a Xeon E3-1275V2 + 2 GTX 580 @950/1200 on a 700w PSU (InWin Commander III Desert Fox 80+ gold) shouldn't be possible according to ASUS who recommend a 700w for a single GTX 580 Matrix Platinum (stock clock)

Minimum PSU Wattage:566 W

PSU Wattage:

ofc it's not a real life case, as i always set the load on 90% and except in certain specific case a system will rarely reach 100% or even 90% (not putting aside the possibility tho )

The phenom II's are showing their age right now but still it shouldn't be sluggish or locking up. Test RAM, HDD, and PSU for issues.

thnx for reply's
i did remove driver booster indeed dont use it ever again makes pc even shitter
the psu is good enough for 2 new cards that radeon you guys been talking about has been removed update it 2 identical cards
there still be from 2 years ago (why cause i bough new one from this year and same thing happend with that card)
i quest it will be ram problem indeed yes never tested them cause it so long procces with mem test
but there new too:(
Maby the cpu is little older but still good enough for the things i want (dont know but ill maby replace it with FX 8390 or higher seems this bord can handle 8 cores ass well)

Alot of reading on google and people even got it with the newest i7
but enough info
This is what i just did 15 mins ago

Reinstall Fresh windows 7 x64 from usb since dvd takes ages
only install for now my sound and aisuite cause i need it for some checkup's
the cpu is reinstall as well (repasted it and pc found new CPU in bios)
i leave everything on default clockspeed rams spread centrums and aircooling)

ill go try now amd drivers 11.10 and see what happens i leave netframe work 4.0/4/52 off (cause higher will slow down pc as well)
ill be writing soon if it works)
Greets Ruben

REMEBER IT WAS FINE BOOTING WITH LOGON AND LOADING DRIVERS/APP LESS THAN 45 SEC

so hope this will works

As I said earlier, post your exact reinstall process. It has to be something your doing. The hardware I don't think is the issue. Your loading something to the rig that is causing this whether deliberate or unintentional. If the rig was running fine until you got a "bad" trojan then that's you answer. Hardware is fine it's a software issue.

Let me see if I understand things right now:
You did a fresh install of the OS and the computer ran fine.
You installed the video driver and things went to running bad/slow.

I had something very similar happen to me before. I tried multiple OS re-installs, many different video drivers and 3 different video cards....and I always got the same results:
1) The system would just lock up
2) The system would BSOD (usually it would lock up)
3) The system would run very slow if it didn't lock up or BSOD

I knew that the RAM was good, I tested it in another computer - no issues.
I knew that the GPUs were good, I've used them in previous builds.
I knew the PSU was good, it powered a more power hungry build without problems.
I knew the HDD was good - chkdsk showed no errors and the HDD was just taken from a previous build and it had no issues. The HDD was formated and had fresh OS installed (Vista and XP were tried - this was just before Win 7 released)

My steps taken:
Format HDD and installed OS (Vista) - everything runs fine
Installed motherboard drivers - everything runs fine
Installed Windows updates - everything runs fine
Installed GPU driver - fails, causing BSOD or lock ups
Uninstalled GPU driver - fail, unable to uninstall in Safe Mode

So I started over. I formated the HDD, re-installed everything and tried a different (known working) GPU driver and the system locks up. I went through this process nearly 2 dozen times. I used different GPUs, I used different GPU drivers and I even tried another OS (Windows XP). The same issue happened over and over again.

I replaced the motherboard and not a single issue since.

I'm not saying you're having the same issue I had, but if everything runs fine after the OS is installed and once you install the video driver and things run like crap it sounds similar to my experience.
Have you tried another video driver?
Have you verifed the GPU works in another computer?

hello
yes in did do the steps i tested cards in other pc and works good:)
i also putted a gtx 280 512bit in this system and all problems where gone (but card died seller was not far was already dying card)

reformate hhd even 2 twices low format but did not have effect
now i install 11.10 driver but same thing i moved up to 13.4 i think and my boot time is 1:23 sec so it going beter after 4 hours finaly
hope i can install now the drivers i still need btw i did not install gpu boost driver at this moment!
i replaced this motherboard cause first had almost the same type
M4A88TD-M/USB3
now i got
M4A89GTD Pro Series

both motherbord has the same confict
both ethernet card are fried some how too by lighting
i realy dont want to spent more money cause it cost me alot!

programs that have been installed now are
speedfan
cpuz
chrome
abgx360
AIDA64 Extreme
AI Suite v1.06.07
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware

dont make sense at all cause when i first build this pc all drivers from dvd/programs i installed worked and no delay's

No not a bottleneck.

So lightning hit the mobo your using now?

Also how does the computer run once it is booted into windows?

Sounds about normal for a boot time into Windows 7 off a mechanical HDD. I have a handful of programs I use load with Windows and it takes nearly 2 minutes to boot into Windows from my mechanical HDD. Before all the extra stuff, it took about 60 seconds.

You could always set the OS to utilize multiple cores from the CPU to assist with the boot process - though I've never noticed a noteable decrease in the overall boot time.

You need to go into msconfig, under the Boot tab and into the Advanced Options, click on the box to choose the number of processors you want to use. Like I said, I've never noticed a noteable improvement in boot time doing this, but you can give it a try.

You need to remember, the OS has to follow the load process when it starts up. It runs all necessary files it needs to run, then it starts with everything else. It has to locate and run the video driver. Every program you need the OS to launch when it boots will add time to the process. An extra 20-30 seconds to load with ATI driver seems a bit excessive, but it's too be expected that you'll wait longer with more things the computer has to load as it boots.

well ... without OC (cpu or gpu) you are at (approximation)
Minimum PSU Wattage:460 W
Recommended

the 4870 are not a good pair to go on a 600w PSU with a OC 955BE ...


also reading back your 1st post ... do yourself a favor and never reinstall a POS like the one in the red circle. (i know my circle isn't a circle ... let's call it a red potato )
View attachment 64620
honestly "driver booster" "all in one driver installer" are most of the time malware nest.

and also that (nope @Aquinus you are not the only one )

tho i did run different RAM model i tend to prefer having all from the same brand/model


just one thing on this. Drive booster 2 is a good program. Has found drivers that helped fully in ways no other diver finder has. It has NOT bonked up any puters in my house and i have put it on over 40 puters around me. I use the free version and there is a delay to get you to pay-up to the pro version but i can wait a short time. Just the fact it found numerous chipset drivers and other drivers the manufacturers quit on was gold. Free and Works.. that alone surprised me as i have NEVER seen one of these programs work well. This one in on my tech disk i use for any and all units i work on for friends. It sounds as if you never used it just assumed that its bad because its a driver downloader. I hope that isn't the case but I use this program and have from the start when i tested it and it found a wireless chipset driver i couldn't get an update for so as to fix a prob. this found it and i chose to install. the original problem vanished with other drivers over time have been updated and installed thru this program . I do however run it in manual mode.
