A little upgrade help...

Post by o'dium »

Ordering my new parts tomorrow. 7950GT 512DDR PCI-E... But the mobo has me stumped.

I found this one, but again... what?

http://www.dabs.com/productview.aspx?Qu ... 4294959021

It *seems* to be ok for me, even my cheap arse ram i cant be arsed to upgrade from... Problem is, that whole "Theres no fan" thing. What the hell? What the hell is a "Fanless Design"? Does it really need no fan for the CPU? How?

And if not... PLEASE could somebody find me a decent Mobo? I cant recall what socket my CPU is, ill check now and re-post...

Fanless referring to the northbridge fan You'll still need a fan for the CPU.
