Anyone ever have to downgrade before?

[IdeaStormer]

Selling blood out of the question? Or selling other bodily fluids. That downgrade looks painful :wacko:

[fishymamba]

Have you tried overclocking it?

lol Yup. Got the core up to 680MHz and the Memory up to 780MHz. Can't go any higher in afterburner. NOt much of a difference in performance.

I wish I could. I ran the Unigine Heaven Basic Benchmark and I got a score of 157  and 6.2 FPS. :'(

Not since I was younger, about 12 years younger lol.

I downgrade the ram in my laptops quite often when I get a different laptop.

I have to sell my 660Ti to get some money for concert tickets. And the only replacement I have is a GeForce 210....

 

Wow

 

I would not sell my GPU for some tickets, only if I was in real economical shit would that happen

[Cryptonite]

I was about to hook it up and then I realized that my mobo only has one video output. I wonder if I can run one monitor off the 210 and one off the iGPU.

Yes you can with certain motherboards, may I also mention you will be able to play games that do not require DX 11, but any game requiring DX 11 will lag for example BF 3

[TheProfosist]

Nope and I would never sell a part of my rig that I use hourly to get some concert tickets. if i didnt but what I do i could go ton a places but id rather have a nice rig and go to one place once a year.

I am right with you sir and there are other things that would go long before my rig.

Yeah tons of shizzle to sell I only just build this thing. Frankly If you build a gaming pc and it leaves you financial difficulties you need to get your proprieties straight and should have spent less on your PC (unless something out of the blue happens)

 

which I really need to do , who wants to buy things, give me your money

[TheProfosist]

oh and heads up guys anything below a GT 240, 430(620), 630, 630v2(730), 640(740), 750/750 ti your better off just using your on board if you have somethings thats sandy bridge or newer.

-snip-

completely agree.

[Guest]

Hey! BF3 is actually kinda playable!!

 

 

 

 

 

...at 640x480 and low settings.

 

 

I guess I want to play a shooter I'll have to stick with Combat Arms.

 

Edit: got to 81C after like 10 minutes.

 

With that kind of fillrate power you may as well just stick with HD 3000.

I built my PC a year ago. And I'm not really in any "financial difficulty". Its just that the tickets cost a ton (~$200) And I don't have that much cash on hand at the moment.

I guess I'm not a "power user" anymore so it matters less to me. One concert a year would be impossible for me, too much fun!

I'm going to try to run my main monitor from the onboard GPU and my secondary from the 210. Hopefully that works, I need to get a HDMI to DVI first.

I once bought a 295 when it was on sale for 900 bucks at Fry's. However, my brother was running around the house and accidentally kicked the unopened box, sending it out the 2nd story window. I wanted to beat his ass up. And warranty doesn't cover STUPID MISTAKES like this. Then it was back to my GT610.

That wasnt aimed at you, i was just speaking in general

 

I would just not go, but thats me

[thekeemo]

I had to downgrade from an original samsung star to my current phone ..... a zte f160 

yeah my life is horrible

[AMaleWhale]

Had to underclock my 7970 because it drew more power than my old PSU could offer

[Fate]

I sold my 800D for a C70 because the 800D was TOO DAMN BIG!

Wow you're really dedicated, I certainly wouldn't sell my beloved GTX 660 for any tickets, though if I did I still have an EVGA GT 630 and an MSI GTX 650 Ti Power Edition

[Craftable124]

I removed a 660 to sell it for money to upgrade my cooling.

[Liam-McShane]

I had to sell one of my 7870's due to the crappy crossfire drivers at the time.
