Just got a new power supply, Mb , gfx card and a cpu.
Amd 64 3200
GA-KEN51GMF-9 (its by gigabyte nforce 430 i think)
EVGA Geforce 6800Gs
2 - 256 266DDR / 1 - 512 333DDR
Thermaltake TR2-430W
( +5 +3.3 +12 -5 -12 +5VSB)
( 30A 20A 18A 0.5A .08A 2A)
Sometimes when playing movies and once while playing half life2 but mostly when I play AOE 3. The sound stutters for 2 seconds then reboots.
Okay First I thought it was my cpu overheating redid the seating and temp stays at 25 idle and 37 while playing CS DoD and other fps. Even have all my fans turned on my cpu with the case open so the hot air can get out.
Still crashes, Im thinking its the ram so I ran memtest crashed took out one 256 ram ran all night.
So I think its fixed play cs, loaded some old games I had to run at medium graphics before my upgrade all Good.
Played AOE3 which always made it do this ran good played online for a few games then on the third one. THe sound stuttered but this time it lasted 6 to 8 seconds then rebooted.
Any ideas what it could be? It reboots like that on AOE3 all the time when I had 3 sticks almost every 15 to 30 minutes. With two It did it just that once after 1 and half to two hours of playing. It only crashed once on DoD with 3 sticks but I was playing that for some hours.
Im thinking its my ram so im gonna get a 1 gig DDR400 but before I do I wanna make sure its that cause if its not I wont spend 100 somethin for a faster gig.
Any advice or personal experience would be appreciated.
