New to Windows 7. PC Hardware Help! Guys I've been using windows XP for years even after 7 was released for fear that the games that run on my configuration will work badly with low fps in windows 7. Could you guys clear this confusion of me? My PC Config is this: Intel core 2 duo 2.2ghz...

Thanks mate.

my graphics driver in forceware 257.21 and Furmark is 1.6.5. Also after 4 minutes in furmark the temp stays on 84C jumping to 85C occasionally for two minutes. I also used 16xMSAA and extreme burn mode in furmark as well. So do you think my card stabilizes at around 85C? Also while playing...

I know its a bit software related, but it concerns graphics cards so i am posting it here. Has anybody used Furmark- the gpu stress test utility. I recently tested my XFX 250GTS with it and ran it for over 6mins(i won't go further than that for the fear of my card damaged). It ran fine for...

Thanks, Mate :)

My Motherboard is Intel D945GCNL Graphics Card is XFX, GS-250X-ZDFL So pcie lite is some sort of low cost pcie slot.so my card is the full power version.it is only that it is also compatible with pcie lite slot too? It also makes sense, no one will make a card with full power and reduce its...

My motherboard is Intel 945GCNL and it has PCie x16 slot (not the lite version). Also in GPUz it says the card is running PCIe 16x @ x16. So i think my card is working at normal speed as it is not PCie 2.0. But my memory bandwidth is 64GB/s which is less than normal (which is 70GB/s) . But i...

What is PCIe Lite? Is it a type of PCI-E slot on the board? My new graphics card says it is XFX 250 GTS PCie Lite. Does that mean it is some kind of low grade version. Or does it only mean that it is compatible with PCI-E LITE slot? Please reply. not much info is on the net.

I am planning to buy a new LCD monitor and need to choose from a 17" or 19" viewsonic TFT LCD. I wanted to know how a game in 1024 * 768 resolution or its wide screen counterpart will look on both of them. Will it be OK to use 1024*768 res on a 19" ? The price diff for both of them are not much.

Why Nero is not showing all writing speeds in the speed selection page. I have a liteon DH20A3P DVD writer and it is showing only selected speeds like 16x,8x,4x(for DVD) and 48x,16x,8x(for CD). if there is no disk in drive and look at the nero writing speed selection menu all speeds are there...

I don't know if the reading in taskmanager is similar as whenever i tries to access the taskmanager during a game by Windows + D the reading would have reverted to 2-5. I got the 50% on the taskmanager too a while back but that was because i was using fraps in b/w the games. use no fraps cpu...

Normally the CPU usage is 2-5. But in the game it is like what i said. even if u use alt+Tab and viewe the taskmanager between the game it shows 2-5 %. i used the nvidia event log to monitor the usage and it says it gets to 100 occasionally and is 85-95 mostly. in NFSMW it is 35-45 and...

2GB Corsair What about the CPU usage.I saw in some other forums Most new games use near 100% CPU. Is that right?

I am getting almost 100% CPU usage while playing NFS pro Street and almost 50% while playing NFS MW.I don't know about other games. Is it normal? I have a Core2Duo 2.2GHz. Also if the CPU or graphics card gets to very high temperature shouldn't the whole sytem shutdown? i thought the CPU and...
