After week of using new PS i have to say things improve. No more weird shut off's, windows always close correctly, no weird starts with errors and restarts.

50/50

Just dont buy TN
-
Only 365 HP, no cup holder, and it cannot fly. I skip it.
-
No, its up to PC configuration (cpu,HDD and how much programs you load at the start up).
-
Yea, nice but it's 170$ over budget
-
No I'm not. Bit i think its worth to spend 40$ more and get bigger SSD.
I did quick assessment of my Hdd space and W7 + basic apps+ arma is over 60gb.
Buying ssd and not be able to benefit from it except booting up system is kind of pointless.
-
I think 120 GB SSD is a bare minimum at the moment
-
I like Soluto for 1 reason it let me manage what is booting without hassle of looking in to registry or searching for ways to disable unwanted software.
I don't really care how long it take to boot my PC, im doing it only 1-2 times a day

That does not answer if its worth to move to DDR3 and new mobo
As for power. I do have power strip and have research some UPS solution couple weeks ago as we had power outages for 1 sec coming every day around 8pm.
But it i was not a issue in US and my PC behave same way. I was living in other town 2 months ago and my PC had same issues.

Key is sata III 6 Gb, older sata 2 are not so good.

What website i can purchase L4D2. Steam does not like my money ;-) D2D neither
I bought CoH today for 4p at Gamersgate.co.uk but they don't have L4D2

I ordered OCZ Danziboy suggested
THX guys
now shopping fro mobo and mby memory, i will sell my current ram to offset costs
I got fix on Gigabyte GA-EG41MFT-US2H motherboard, if i change my ram to DDR3 8GB , box should be faster then with DDR2 pc6400?

Its local place called allegro. Something like cross between ebay and amazon, but not that good. It safer this way and i can get warranties on most stuff since online stores sell there.

I can search in other stores but i don't trust most of them.
Another weird thing today. I shut down my PC yesterday using standard shut down from windows and today morning it went in to recovery mode. Its kind of common.
Yesterday i try arma and everything was fine with most of stuff unplugged from USB's
how about coolermaster?
-
No Antec available for me
How about Thermaltake TR2 500W 80+ Bronze or 600W ( TR-600PCEU or TR-500PCEU)
OCZ is quite popular brand

I had no BSOD since win XP, no idea how to turn it on in W7.
W had several different signs of crashes.
MOst common was . I push power button and can hear system tarting but nothing on the screen. HDU's are working and load OS, after a minute my monitor is powering off.
I do reset and sometimes it help sometimes not. It happen with Nvidia 9600 I had and with 4850.
Last crashes was during playing arma, green screen with vertical black lines or just powering off with power button on the case staying on(under-light on power button). IIRC with nvidia it was pink/magenta screen.
I got it also when i was browsing net with latests firefox beta. Unplugging unnecessary USB connections seems working for a moment and system is stable, i will test it with arma tonight.
How about this PSU?
it 2x more expensive in my country but , well
edit
Batwing,
Back in US. When i had no printer at all, just headphones and KB connected same thing was happening.
-
thx, will order new PSU.
Q. can i expect faster graphic performance after new PSU? Or just more stable. I assume it will not affect performance at all , just stability of system.
-
That's my PSU
http://www.geeks.com/details.asp?invtid=ULT31556
Power Specifications:
115V, 230V switchable power supply
+3.3V, 28A
+5V, 30A
+12V, 34A
-12V, 0.8A
-5V, 0.3A
+5Vsb, 2.0A
Now i know what do you mean.
If my video draw more then 34 A my system will fail.
I can play Arma for several hours without crash but as i mentioned every couple months trouble starts. I disassembly box put it back together and runs ok for another couple months.

I rethink everything again and i have to agree PSU could be week link. My is 5 yo and that can ba a problem even if it says 500w.
I will start from this side.
My question is how much power do i need?
As i state before have Q8200 , 4 gig of ram ati4850, 2x 1TB drive, 3x 500 GB, 1x 250, DVD-R drive (currently disconnected)
wireless KB/mouse on USB, wirelesses radio mouse, wacom tablet, eizo monitor with USB hub, 2x epson printers px660 and pro 4000, USB headset.
Occasionally i use USB card reader and charge my iphone using hub in monitor.Wirelesses USB WIFI card im not using right now.
It never happens my PC quit just after connecting any of those devices , even if all of them where hooked up at once.
It refuse to start up, or went down when i play arma or use web browser.
For sure this PSU will stay with me when i move to I7 CPu next year.
600W or more?
Need new mobo

Thats not bad idea. I though about that couple months ago.
How big UPS do i need for my PC? I assume it should hold my modem, router , PC and monitor for a 1-5 min?
As usual I'm not looking to spend to much for it.
