http://www.newegg.ca/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16819103961 what about the phenom 8 core vs i5 2400?

things i forgot to say is that i reside in canada would have to check the price on newegg.ca

ok so my mobo busted a week ago... now im left with two choice... either i only get a new board witch takes 775 chip. Or i completly upgrade the whole mobo cpu and ram. i will need to upgrade to ddr3 anyhow. So the best mobo seems to be a micro atx msi mobo... but i already worked with it and i...

breadboarded the computer.... tryed powering it on with the minimal... no good... so pretty sure its the mobo or the psu (in some very weird way) right now.

k i will try tonight doing this... thinking it might be the HD while that seems unlikely whill the computer power up without ram... is there any danger for the hardware powering on and off considering something in the computer is fried... could it affect the other parts?

if a cpu was to burn.... would it show something on the screen? i have this problem with my computer first i tought it was the gpu turns out its not... now im thinking either cpu or mobo is fried. but im having trouble pinpoiting the problem...

nah i dont have another gamer friend with a 775 mobo... one i have with a gaming rig is running on amd... adn i dont want to buy over the internet it takes waaaaaaayyy too long to ship i need my pc :( if it was the cpu though wouldnt it like show something on the screen tough?

ok so first part of this post is this http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/350163-33-think-blew (dont have to check it ill recapitulate) it was posted earlier today when i tought it was the gpu that blew... So lets recapitulate. my computer yesterday froze. i closed it... its powering back on but...

ok so i bought a 6850 and it didint help at all so im guessing the problem is the ******* motherboard.... now ill rpoably send back the gpu tommorrow and get a mobo

no it didint work... no good nada same problem.... ill just go get a 460 gtx and if i dont like it ill switch for the 560 later within the week... and if its not the pcu well f*** me... ill have a lot of trouble shooting to do.... oh and the psu is a 650 w... it looks i great condition too...

its a decent psu 650watt i think or maybe be a 1000 i dont remember... its acooler master and i choose it cuz at the time i wanted to sli to gtx 260 so i think it should be fine... ill try your trick thorny will pos back result

thats the advantage with the store is if it dont work i can return it within 7 days no worries :)

the reason i need to buy from a store is because first i dont want to wait 2 weeks for a new gpu XD and if the problem is indeed the mobo i can rturn the card without any hassle and try the fn mobo instead.

So yesterday i was playing swtor... and while chilling and questing with with my oh so lovely sith the game suddenly froze. No biggies i though, it was somewhat strange as my computer is usually ultra stable and i have not have a single problem with it since i bought it 3 years or so ago...
