Ultrapro's new PC!!

[nnorton44]

is it able to capture and display the quality that I would be seeing on screen or is there some discrepency do you think?

Yeah it will record high resolution video, but then you have to compress it for YouTube, etc.

cool I'll look into it, I'll be interested to upload footage from my pc games.

that CPU-Z thing, is this the right download if I wanna do it too?

Ya, most people only use it to validate an overclock though. I've got my Phenom II 1055T 2.8GHz 6-Core overclocked to 3.5GHz on all cores.

I am selling my system though to build something smaller and more energy efficient.

hey bud, was just wondering what you thought about me getting additional USB for my pc? it only has 4 at the back and I have a USB hub but its not particularly reliable as I've had it a while and it somethings goes wrong. can I get a new internal usb card that expands my usb and gives me an extra 4 ports at the back? its stuff like my webcam and bluetooth adapter that I am keen to just hide round the back, then I can use the front two for memory sticks etc

what kind of port would a USB card go into? or is it best to just use a hub? cheers bud

something like this maybe?

Yeah that should work, you got some free PCI slots right?

[DCUltrapro]

I guess? Though only had the one PCI-e slot, does it matter much about quality? does a card like this need power of its own? thanks

Well if you only have a PCI-e slot you need a PCI-e card. The PCI bus powers the card. Judging by how many sold it should be fine.

[DCUltrapro]

no no I had 1 PCI-E and however many standard PCI ones there are, the pic you posted of my mobo shows a couple free at least so should be fine

Yeah but check anyway sometimes the graphics card overlaps the PCI slot.

[DCUltrapro]

I think it probably does block the first but I have 2 or 3 free below the card so should be able to use one ok
