So you replaced a shitty graphics card with a equaly shitty graphics card and installed vista.

 

Cant wait for the pictures.

[flibberdipper]

Yay, pictures are up. Not that many, but they're there.

 

Dear oh dear... Is it broken?

You could say that.

The 6570 died, so I had to use the onboard, and Windows 7 was unstable and buggy with the onboard, whereas Vista was fine with it.

o reallly? now when you need me, you skype. but when i do, you are nowhere to be found </3

[flibberdipper]

Skype never notifies me when someone send me a message. And Windows 8 always tells peeps I'm online, even when I'm not using my computer.

well get on the fucking skype then no? and your sig lacks a line

[HippY]

that is sooo retro

 

Remember the time, when gaming case meant the same design as usual, no cable management options, but a kick ass sidewindow with shitloads of leds?

[ManWithBeard1990]

Will you be buying a new mobo or is it not worth repairing?

[flibberdipper]

Line? And Windows is updating, so I'm not touching it right now.

I'll get another one for my birthday or Christmas hopefully so that I can have a rig at my grandma's again. My GTX 480 is getting lonely, and my Sempron wants to be unlocked and pushed more.

So does this Motherboard support DDR2 and DDR3 at the same time ???? I'm lost the slots are the same.
