UD2 and UD3 Mobos
Published (2009-11-30 21:24:00)
Well, to state the obvious, one is a standard ATX board, the other is a Micro ATX board.. With that out of the way, these are the differences: The GA-P55-UD3 has: 3 PCI slots. 2 PCI-E x1 slots. The GA-P55M-UD2 does not have 3 PCI slots, or any PCI-Ex1 slots. The GA-P55M-UD2 has the following (which the p55-UD3 doesn't): 2 1394 connections. 1 E-SATA connection. The major difference's that aren't visible is that the UD3 (hence...

It'll just be a waste of money, any reasonable graphics card today will be bottlenecked by the horrible AMD sempron. Your best bet is to put money towards a new...

I was very surprised that no one had made a new one for the new forums, so I decided to do so because I just rebuilt my computer, and had access to a camera..

DX11 is on automatically with DX11 cards and DX11 installed.
Anyway, I can't remember my score exactly, but I had everything maxed out at 1920x1200 at 8x MSAA on my 5850 and the average FPS was 30.something and minimum was 29.something.

It's just standard virtualisation. It requires 2 downloads, one of Virtual PC, and one of the 'XP Mode' which is in the form of an executable file, so I presume it's a small-ish version of Windows Xp packaged up and designed to be installed directly into Virtual PC so no "plank walkin' be happenin'".
It doesn't require a reboot. As I said it's standard virtualisation, it displays the OS in a ...

This is a very good explanation of cap discharging in a PSU for someone who has never done it.
As for the fan, make sure it is a regularly sized low RPM 120MM case fan, with molex connectors and no more than a red and black wire.
I wouldn't run the PSU without a fan, even if your CPU cooler is good (wat?). If anything having...

Defragmentating is likely to help if you havn't done it in a while. It basically groups the current structure and layout of the files into a more organized structure, therefore, decreasing the read times, since the system doesn't have to go looking for particular files.
You might also want to try a file clean up and a registry clean up, both forms of maintenance can be done by using CCleaner....

Nothing software related lately. Just hardward. Last month my hard drive died, then a couple weeks after that my PSU. All up and running now, though. Better, modular psu now, too!
Oh, and MW2 wouldn't go windowed for me.. the other games worked with a few minor changes.

Well do like you said, put it back to normal and see if it boots properly. Otherwise, I would assume it's been fried.

The problem is that TSMC can't provide enough 40nm wafers to satisfy AMD demands. AMD went ahead of production possibilities.

I would say that both cards are about equal performance-wise exchanging blows depending on the game. Anyway, at the res you'll be playing at I doubt there's gona be any difference so go for the cheaper one.

Good job on being first to tell us this.
Lets wait for the real GTX300 GPU's before going nuts... I'm pretty sure no one said that the low end of the next series has to be on the newest architecture...
