OK guys im getting some problem
I have installed windows 8,installed the latest drivers for the GPU from Zotac's(driver for GTX 760 AMP) Official website.
but even after installing the drivers the MKV videos are kind of lagging.
Could you'll tell me what could the reason be??
Do you'll think there is some problem with the Graphic Card?

i5-3470 Rs11k
INTEL DZ75ML 45K Rs5k
gskill sniper 2x4GB Rs5k
CM hyper 212evo Rs2.5K
saphire hd7870XT Rs20k (remember it is XT version which is tahiti die) ( Sapphire HD 7870 XT with Boost 2 GB GDDR5 Graphics Card - Sapphire: Flipkart.com )
corsair vs550 Rs3k
hdd + cabinet + monitor = 13.5k
total 60k

VLC player.

Tried Avatar 1080 Brrip size of which is around 16.5 GB

You need to enable hardware acceleration from the VLC player setup. BTW, Media Player Classic Home Cinema should be your choice for playing video with GPU acceleration using hardware decoding. Download it from the official website, either installer or the zip version. Then use this guide to setup GPU acceleration (DXVA) is it: Enabling hardware accelerated h264/x264 Video Decoding using Media Player Classic | blogo.biz

You can ommit the external filter part as the integrated DVXA decoder in it is very good.

Sry guys still have not uploaded any pictures of the PC,busy with office work right now

@rijinpk1 i'll post the individual prices today by evening.

Guys u have any suggestion regarding the fan placements in the cabinet??

the usual temperature of the GPU is around 64 degree and the same for the Processor.

I have i already have installed two extra 120mm led fans in the cabinet
One at the front as intake.
Second at the top as exhaust.

still place for 3 more fans 1 at the top and 2 at the sides.
should i get more fans and also is the positioning proper(as in the front is intake where as the top is exhaust??

@shebz7: will be playing games as soon as i get time...:p

P.S Tomorrow is a holiday perfect day to spend my time with my new companion.:-D

is that idle temperature?

No its after playing Need For Speed Most wanted for half an hour..idle is around 52-55 for both the GPU The MB and the Processor
After gaming even the MB temperature reaches upto 65-67 degree.
(I dont have an A/C at my place does that matter?? might be a stupid question to ask but still.)

GPU temps below 80 is good enough & for CPU below 60 under load(non-OC).

Your idle temps are high though it should be around 40 C.

Post your cable management pics & fan placement details. May be cable clutter blocking airflow. For gamma use two top fans as exhaust & a high pressure intake fan. What's your avg. ambient temps?

I assume you are using the stock AMD cooler, so remount(if remounting apply fresh TIM) the cooler if possible.

@shebz7

Dude i havent got a lot of time to play Games like BF3 and Arkham City(but yes i have tried both the games in full HD dont know what FPS i was getting i'll try again using fraps

Secondly the temperature problem still persists, as the ideal temperature was very high i removed the cabinet out of the trolly

Im uploading the sreenshots of the IDeal temperatures

(while playing games like BF3 the CPU temperature reaches 85-90 C
and the same does the motherboard and if i keep playing the game after that the Computer Shuts down automatically.

DO I need a heatsink (if yes which one is better the CM 212 evo or TX3)

@harshilsharma & Cilus
the video playback problem has been solved I installed windows 7 and updated to the latest graphic drivers ant the videos just look amazing.

My only concern right now is about the temperature problem,please let me know if anything could be done about it.
I have stopped playing games after the auto shutdown thing happened as i dont want to damage any hardware.

Also Special Thanks to my dear dear friend Aaron Brako for gifting me the humble bundle.(it's still sad that I'm not playing the games..:cry:)

And yes one more question Im using a VGA cable using the VGA to DVIX converter should I get an HDMI cable or continue using the VGA cable?

HWmonitor.jpgTEmperatures.jpg

THe HWmonitor screen shoot was taken after playing BF3 for 3 Minutes ...:razz:
and the Core Temp is the Idle Temperature.

There is one default fan which is at the back of the cabinet.
and i have placed one 90mm fan @ the top as Exhaust (i.e its blowing air out of the cabinet,and one fan ahead bottom side same 90mm fan but blowing air inside the cabinet)
The back fan is also blowing hot air out side.IMG_20131117_135007.jpgIMG_20131117_135114.jpg

also get an hdmi cable.

Will the Deepcool Frostwin fit in my cabinet cause it looks kinda big.

> Temps are fine, but you took the screenshot after running the game but you should have done that while running the game.

> Move the top exhaust to side panel as intake. This will bring more cool winter air inside. BTW that multicolor fan looks :yuck:
