my computer specs:

Processor E6600 intel core 2
Graphic ATI card with 512 MB i think it's 4750 or something
Ram reads 4 GB but only 2.93 is usuable
1 tb harddrive

my computer seems to be lagging like heck barely moves like alt + Tabbing or whatever i do seems to be in a delay or freezes for few seconds WHEN I turn on 2 media players video music videos or movies
using a program that converts like 5 videos into 1 large video
and internet explore youtube seems to lag too

 
You paid money for the bootleg? If I'm hearing you right then you need to learn google my friend. :)

Btw youtube should have great tutorials on building a pc. Everything is done with screws and clips. It is quite simple if you pick the right parts and don't force anything or cause too much static.

PS: illegal activity (check out forum rules) is forbidden here so careful w/ that. :)
 



technically im not trying to do anything illegal 😗

damn ur wise... im kinda stupid in ways that if i get something i wanna get the best there is i guess thats how i got the i7 920 over getting a effective yet more affordable amd for gaming

and when i brought the new windows 7 for my new comp after finding out my bootleg win 7 did update and got caught with invalid key
i went ahead and paid 200 for win 7 64 bit ultimate :/

if i was to buy the amd phamton x4 955? quad core computer i could've gotten a little better gpu likeati 5850 and more ram 8 gb and win 7 home edition and still saved money compared to

getting i7 920 ati 5770 6gb ram and win 7 64 ultimate
 



dude.. do you know if there is anything i do on the internet that can cause my ram to go bad??
as ur probably aware that i got a new spanking hot comp i7 920 with the 6gb 1600 mhz ram
but i think last week i try to do mem test and went to bed woke up teh comp was restarted (i said to myself maybe i didn't run it) which i think i really did and today i woke up looks like my comp was rebooted again.. dang..

should i contact cyberpower and ship it back all the way to cali? for warranty?
 





no what you do on the internet will not affect your ram... however you have ddr3 1600 ram? Im almost willing to bet you are under volting your ram... what is the model number of your ram? im betting it should be at 1.65 volts and is running at 1.5 volts..
 
the reason i say this is because i did the same thing with my ram. The motherboard defaulted at 1.5 v and i did not realize it.. i adjusted the mhz to 1600 as you allways have to and then my computer became unstable.. Finaly i double checked everything and realized my ram should be at 1.65 v i adjusted and vola!!!
 


on my invoice it says:
RM-317-501 2GB DDR3 / 1600 MHZ MEMORY 3 23.00 69.00

how can i check what my mobo voltage is using?
is it on bios??
