Hello,
I inherited an old Intel Core i7-860 Quad 2.80GHz with 10GB RAM from my dad, and decided to get a new graphics card to try and use it for gaming. I went out and bought a MSI r7 370 4gb, and replaced the old AT Radeon 4600. Once I powered the pc back on, I heard two beeps, followed by the initial blue Powerspec screen, but the process freezes there. I am using a 500 watt power supply, so I don't think that is the issue, me and my friend were thinking that the Powerspec G157 motherboard just isn't compatible, but I'm not 100% sure.
All I want to do is play my games from steam in full screen at a playable speed, no super high def, nothing fancy. Can someone please help me find the most cost effective solution?
Thanks a million!
