Thread: Phenom 8450

I come here looking for some help with my pc, that I have the following:
- AMD Phenom X3 8450
- ECS Mobo 780gm-a
- 2gb ram Corsair XMS2-6400

Currently I am running Win XP and am using the integrated video on the mobo .. I am thinking about buying a HD3850 as I read that I can function as "hybrid crossfire with the integrated video, since my budget does not reach a higher power card XD ...

Then my doubts are worth buying the HD3850 for hybrid crossfire or just gathering for a still higher power? What is the best operating system for my processor, I am told that I'm using win xp but I want to raise my 4gigas ram, you should do?

Another thing I have noticed that the mobo is heated to the extreme and that I'm not doing anything at the moment of oc, just got to win XP and msn XD...

Thanks

You will not have hybrid Cross fire, as this only applies to small vga. you just do not see the option. Preferable that you buy a vga more powerful if it can graphic, obviously if you play a graphics buffer.

The chipset of the motherboard itself is heating so you do not have to worry about.

Thanks for the reply.

I played together more money... And with regard to the OS with Win XP still? If it works well with the x3 xp to upload or view?

XD I burn playing the chipset of the mobo, if not normal then stab me and looking to put a fan or something XD.

Hello

I had installed with my 2gb and issues of given me everything I held as 1gb, 4gb if I have the 32bit out of sight is changing as 1 GB will be used by the graphics.

I guess the x64 is the 64 bit operating systems but well with 4 gigs I have thought about buying these 2 corsair memory but not if you buy these and then put another one more brand problems?
Will join and become smooth 3 gigs?
I have this doubt for me that the sellers say, do not create problems in order to sell.

Hi

The 8600 can not be overclocked! Furthermore, it is not good ... the core of the GPU from ATI can be 500 MHz to 850 without any problem!
