Your PC ATM

Top brands I trust. Enermax (only high end models), Corsair (all good stuff HX is higher quality though), and PC Power & Cooling.
 
I think of it this way, a computer is just like a man.
The case are his bone and the PSU is his heart.
You never want a weak heart.
 
I have a enermax Liberty 500W modular but for my setup and starting to overclock, it kinda starts running out of power.

is it shutting off randomly?
 
it is BSOD with any over clock above stock with a voltage bump. changed the PSU out for a LSP 650 i had in my closet and actually got to run 4ghz for a couple of days but this PSU is making frying noises and is now BSOD at 4ghz but will run stable at 3.8ghz
 
>.< Stop abusing your hardware with dirty electricity and get a nice PSU :laugh:

750W-1000W will do fine but please buy quality.
 
yes its messy but im in between cases ATM but i have a HUGE build planned for each in the near future.

Does that use the HD 4200 GPU? How is 1080p playback with the BDrom?
 
t takes 9 hours to re encode a 25gb BDrom to 5gb while my i5 rig did it in 1hour and 9mins. both where at 3.6ghz too.

What kind of quality settings are you using for encoding on that i5? When I'm encoding mine take 9-10 hours on an o/c Q9550...

But then again I keep mine at 1080p and try to keep them as high quality as I can.. :toast:
 
He is decreasing quality. Thats why it dosent take that long.
 
Frack! My Samsung 2233RZ started making loud semi-high electrical buzz yesterday. Now I'll have to RMA it and be without main PC for few weeks. :cry:
 
eww that sucks! the PSU im using right now in my rig is making a LOUD electrical buzz during HIGH loads. Hopfully it lasts til i can get a new one

i would believe its overloaded... and Buzzing,humming,excessively loud squealing...... all this stuff can be deadly
better clock a little down, and try to lower the volts as much as possible, to extend the lifetime, than loosing hardware in the end. it may be nothing, but it can be a dieing PSU
