Live In Thailand so cooling is important

As if its hotter in Thailand than in the USA, lol.

Your desktop gave up the ghost motherboard and power supply?? What does that mean?

Your power supply says 450w, but its really 300w?? HUH?

Unless you give a link to a Thailand e-tailer, how can we help you pick parts in Thailand?

LOL, I'm no jack the lad, whatever that means....Now time for a little world weather class for Tomo, who thinks Thailand is the hottest place on Earth.

Lets see,all of last week it was 95f (35c) RH is 80% right now at 8am. Factor the humidity and the feels like temps makes it 109f (45c)

The hottest and wettest part of the summer is August, more than a month away.

I went to the other side of my state for vacation last week and it was 101f (40c), no idea what the RH and feels like temp added up to.

My state is also the lightning strike capitol of the WORLD.

World weather lesson over.


Anyways, that card goes for $94.99 at newegg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Prod [...] 6814102770

I'm really not sure what your asking. You say you already have a E5300, a Asus mobo, and memory, but you want to get new ram, case and power supply.

Why do you want to replace the processor for overclocking??? The E5300 is one of the best overclocking cpu's out there.....

I made the point about Thailand as it is a and can be a hot area never implied it was the hottest place in the World. However using a whirling hygrometer I have recorded temperatures of 46C and 70% RH.

But that is nothing compared to the Red Sea and being in the Engine Room of a ship with a large steam leak. LOL LOL LOL

This site claims to cover and have people from various parts of the world. Would you recommend the same for The Arctic as you would for the Red Sea.

I put together something as a stop gap machine. My wife goes crazy when I spend lots on the PC so I have found that if I purchase in stages she is happy.

The free case I got is useless. So I am looking for a good case with good ventilation that will also provide ventilation for 3 1 Terabyte hard disks.

I intend to purchase 2 2Gb Ram chips and would like some advice on make and speed. I am not looking to over clock to the limit.

The Video Card I have is OK but I am looking to purchase something that will last me well for a couple of years.

The power supply is totally crap voltage fluctuations are large so I am looking to purchase something a lot more stable.

The motherboard and processor video card and memory will be used for a pc for my son. So they will not go to waste.

The motherboard tests show that this motherboard is not very good for over clocking.

These were purchased locally and not at the large IT centre which is 200 KM away were today the video card is selling at 78 US dollars in one shop. My friend has just purchased one. but this is a single slot card that exhaust into the case. As we all have found someone can always get something cheaper.

My fault should have had a back up system available.

What I am looking for is some recomendations on bang for buck not on the best at this present moment.

Now I have a working PC and just looking for some advice and putting together something a lot better.

So maybe my intial post was not very accurate that was due to a massive electrical storm that stoped internet access and the fact I was now very tired.

Please dont read something that is not there. I am sure you are a very helpfull and Knowledgeable person and any help is most appreciated.

Thanks for that the Ram deal seems to have gone. The web site I would use in Thailand has died like all the Thai internet hardware supplyers.

I will see if I can get this lot on the 7 thank you very much.

Then I will come back and tell you how well it went.

Thanks again.

That is fine. I like your self like Gigabyte and Asus.

Anyway low and behold my wife has given me like an open book to buy what I want thats because I have just secured a 10 year contrat here in Thailand. She wants a baby girl so we have agreed to that.

So now my requirements have changed some what.

The existing I have I need a good quality case the mother board is not fantastic but will do I shall upgrade the ram to 1066 MHZ so I can overclock a bit and install a Ati graphics card the new 4770 that should do my 6 year old for a couple of years.
Budget 300 Us Dollars

She insists on me putting together a Mid range for my 12 year old. So something around 1500 Dollars would be perfect.

Now my spec Quad core definetly no nvidia only ATI still not sure if win 7 and what version. Would like to overclock but not to extreme levels. With autocad you need lots of mem on some of the modelling. Most intersted in case power supply motherboard CPU and Ram I will get a monitor myself because of autocad. (New company will pay for that. They will duplicate my build at the office.)
Budget excuding monitor 4000 us dollars.
More Ram the better. Also considering some solid state drives.
