I got a core2Duo OC to 3.80 GHz. Currently I have a 5770 with 4GB Patriot G series RAM 1166MHz. I really want this card. Could I run this card on my current system?
@aliv101010 download Link?
@AntiVideosHD Prime 95
so a corsair hx750 would work for 2?
whats the program you used to strease your cpu?
@tiagom135 6870 is better than the 5850 and beats the 5870 in certain aspects.
@tiagom135 no the 6870 is better than 5850 but worse than 5870 and the 6850 is better than the 5830 but worse than 5850
MY PSU is 400W and I power up GTS 250, 2 7200 RPM HDDS athlon II x2 240 and 4GB Corsair dominator ram aiming for 700W PSU
@GoldenMurderer I dont see a graphics card in that list, if your not doing any serious Oc’ing then theres no reason a 350 or 400 will work. So yes a 520W will work more that well enough.
@GoldenMurderer Power supplies are the most efficient at around 40%-50% load so you would need at around x2 the amount of the power required for the PSU (not to mention that it would damage the PSU if it’s constantly at high load). No offense but recommending a 500w-600w PSU for 400w required is not a very good advice, you should instead have around a 800w-900w PSU.
Would you say a 520W PSU would support :
2x 7200 WD blue 1TB in raid 0
(later an ASUS EAH6870)
an AMD Phenom II x3 720
4 GB of DDR2 RAM
1x Combo SATA optical drive
(not sure if this matters or not) 3 80mm fans, 1LED and 2 120mm fans no LED.
Should I buy a new PSU or would 520W work well enough for this system?
what a mess…
@Vartazian360 a very good 500w but 550w/650w is the best choice especially given the price isn’t that horrible for say a corsair.
@BigArtek1 4 sapphire 5970 toxics or 5870s ASUS ARES x2 if u bet and win lol 2 or 3 don t matter, or 4+ 580EVGA superclocked

Linus could you edit the video description to give us a list of your mobo, cpu, RAM and with their speed and voltages?
I’m a little concerned that I went 100w too low. I bought a XFX 750W black edition 80+Silver, and I’ll be running a MSI 890FX-GD70 mobo, with 16gb G.Skill ECO (1.35v)1600 RAM (4x4gb) and crossfired MSI 6870s, Lite-ON 24x dvd-rw, and Samsung 1TB 7200RPM Spinpoint F3 HDD. I’m also using a corsair H50 push/pull & shroud cooler, and wish to OC. Am I okay 0_o?
@cipherrrr Like someone else says, the 6970 is not out yet.It`s also the gpu that will replace the 5870 and so should beat the 5870 in benchmarks otherwise what would be the point?
Maybe you are thinking on the 6870?
@cipherrrr The 6970 is’nt even out yet.
@Vartazian360 I’m not getting the computer.
@Avataryoutuification no 400w will not be enough for the 6870. however it may be for the 6850.
Hallo! kennt sich wer vielleicht aus: ich habe 4GB ram, eine gtx 470, Windows 7(32 bit)

und ein AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000 (2x 3,11 Ghz), aber ich kann z.b. GTA 4 nur mit 20 fps spielen.
Woran liegt das??? wahrscheinlich an meinem Prozessor oder? helft mir!!!
