personally i think 8600gts is too costly....

power...bro it shows only 300W bro!!!!

i cant hold on any longer bro...alredy waiting for a year...

now a pci x connector is the one for your pci express grafix card power.6pin(maybe 8 pin)...get dat now?

dual 12 v rails means two rails for 12v supply=greater power8)+greater stability8)+greater price!!!

See *forum.ncix.com/forums/index.php?mo...id=1390616&pagenumber=1&msgcount=11&subpage=1

[Pathik]

[a_k_s_h_a_y]

I gave the link.

dats rite.i already had the file.thanks neway.

but my point is---wat proccy shud i buy?4400,6320,6550?
can i update bios after i first plug in the 6550?would the system boot at all with 6550?

 

[spikygv]

forget the wattage , the amperage on the 12volt rail is wat is MOST WANTED . .get more if u want to OC .and dont forget that efficiency reduces quite a lot after a year or so ....

 

[Pathik]

the system wouldnt bootup at all with a 1333mhz fsb proccy....
try getting a older lga775 proccy from a friend just to boot up and flash ur bios and then replace it wit ur 6550/6750

How izz dat possible?
wat will i tell him? i mean,hw com i m going to make him understand the whole crap of this bios update stuff?

One more thing, before buying XFX 650i Ultra check whether all the RAM slots are working or not. The problem is that, I had to change the same mobo since it won't boot with all the ram slots occupied. Will be getting the replacement by wednesday. Even the BIOS update doesn't help.
After repeated effort was able to boot with 1gb*3 modules but when I installed the module into the slot closest to the cpu (white) the machine won't boot.
Even if install a single module into that first slot the system would still not boot but that same ram module works fine with other memory slots.
Anyhow, my friend had bought 3 of these mobo and out of the three one had this same problem.
So please check at the time of purchase.

So please check at the time of purchase.

Well see, may be u had a faulty one, but does that mean all XFX 650i Ulta wont boot under 4 RAM Modules ??
