Which type of PC's do u have?????

[funkymonkey]

Pure Gaming and enthusiast PC (Enthusiast PC catagory should be there )
AMD A64 3000+ venice @ 2.8Ghz ( Max oc was 3010Mhz)
2x512MB Ocz Gold VX PC3200 winbond UTT BH-5 RAM.
Dangerden TDX waterblock for CPU as well as XP-90. I use TDX waterblock while performing overclocking experiments.
Gigabyte 6600GT PCI express.
DFI Lanparty UT NF4 Ultra D motherboard.
2x120GB Seagate SATA.
Sony DVD RW.
Antec smartpower 450 PSU.

Was there any problem after overclocking the CPU? How did you do that and what precautions did you take?

Not yet. Its completely stable at 2.8Ghz.
Anything over 2.88 and prime fails so i am keeping it at 2.8Ghz keeping 80Mhz buffer.
I have XP-90 cooling this CPU so temps are preety good. Less than 50C under load.
I have a CM wavemaster cabinet with nice airflow inside so no no problems till now.

[Kniwor]

I would like to know how do u define a gaming PC.

I have X300 GPU integrated, and i can play all the games right now, but, not all at high settings, i cant play doom3 at ultra high settings, can play Far Cry at huighest settings.

So that's basically a question of definition,

I have

AMD 64 3000+
MSI RS480M2-IL
1 Gb DDR 400 ram, running Dual Channel
250 Gb SATA Seagate Barracuda

old

I selected Average PC but do everything on it.
Cauz my PC configuration is:

Intel mobo
Intel PIII processor 801 MHz
128 MB RAM
80 GB Samsung HDD
Samsung DVD Drive

But my Windows XP runs faster & smoother on it.
I'm happy with it...

it is OLD pc yaar
i think 2 years old

 

[Vishal Gupta]

Its more than 5 years old...
But still so fast than new ones. (touch wood)!

I find it hard to believe that you can play Far Cry @ Max Settings with an integrated X300 ...... and I'm assuming that AA and AF are off ...... what resolution do you play at and what kind of FPS's are you getting? Anything above 35 at a minimum of 800x600(preferably at 1024x768) is playable in my book .... If you do manage that, then you have a highly optimized system

 

[Aniruddh]

i agree wid kniwor as even i hav exactly the same rig wid 512 ram but still i can play FARCRY wid medium setting at 1024x768 widout any problem hav neva tryed high settin as thought it mite not work properly but now i will try it as kniwor said he is able to play in high settings.cant play DOOM3 in high settings but ya low to medium.

looking at the configs posted, my PC might match to be a slightly-above average PC for gaming, but I ain't got no gfx card yet, so I don't consider my PC as that gr8 of a deal for gamez. but hell, it's powerful for vdo/audio rendering n' stuffz. Let's not mention what it does to wordprocessors n' browserZ......
Spec:

P4 3.0Ghz (HT)
512 MB DDR
Intel 865GBF M/B
Power User (heh heh)
