It certainly could be the power supply. The stated requirement for the card is a 450w power supply with 30amps on the 12v rail. I know that power requirements are routinely overstated but you are far enough from the requirement that it seems likely that it is you power supply. Did you check to see i...

I am pretty much in the same boat as you. I think I have settled on a GIGABYTE GA-K8N Ultra-9. It isn't SLI, but I will never run two cards anyway. It doesn't have a heatpipe, but it is passive. So far I haven't see anything that would keep me from buying it. If anyone has a reason I would like to h...

Man, I don't believe it. I was so excited about the P150. Now that it is available @ newegg I was going to get one and a A8N - premium next week. I guess I'll have to go back to the seasonic with some other case. Too bad they don't sell the P150 without a power supply.

How about Thermalright SI-97A. I think it is supposed to be on par with the XP-90. I almost got one but went with a XP-90 because it was a little cheaper (~$7).

If I remember right 12v lines are generally spec'ed at +/- 5%. You're well within that so I wouldn't declare your power supply bad just yet.

New Nvidia drivers make fan scream

I have an older (geforce 3) card and haven't updated its drivers in probably about a year. Today I was installing a game which complained about my machine not having the latest video drivers. I was having some problems getting the game to work so I downloaded the latest drivers (56.72) to see if the...
