PC crash - video card related?

OK, here's an update. I swapped power supplies with a spare I had, but same results. I downloaded 3dmark06 and ran two cycles with no crashes, but tried again this morning and crashed on the second test. I left CCC open during the testing and saw that my idle GPU temp was 53C and after the...

E6750 & Gigabyte P35C-DS3R Overclocking Thread

well, i think we can close the books on my issue. I swapped in a spare power supply i had laying around, and just played 2 straight hours of Bioshock with no crashes. Crazy, the free after rebate Ultra X-finity works, but the $80 Antec doesn't...anyway, thanks for your help everyone. EDIT...

E6750 & Gigabyte P35C-DS3R Overclocking Thread

The ATI card is a stop-gap until the new GeForce cards arrive, so I'm with you on that. In the mean time, yes, I'm running the latest official drivers (haven't tried beta at this point), and memtest shows the RAM to be rock solid. I'm not 100% certain I have the latest Intel chipset drivers...

E6750 & Gigabyte P35C-DS3R Overclocking Thread

Hi guys, I posted a problem I'm having over in the video forum, but not getting much input. Hoping you all have some ideas. I have the P35C-DS3R board with a Q6600 G0 running at 3.2. System is Orthos stable for 13+ hours, memtest stable, temps at 68C under load (per Everest), etc. All latest...

Anandtech p35 roundup?

Gary, Can you briefly comment on why the DS3P is rated higher than the DS3R? Is it simply a matter of the added features, or is there something else at play? Also, if you were to buy a board, would you spend the extra $30 (above the DS3P) for the IP35 Pro? Thanks.

Anandtech p35 roundup?

I've also been eagerly awaiting the P35 roundup, but I need to buy now to complete my new Q6600 rig. I will never go SLI, doubt I'll ever use firewire, and don't need wireless. So I think I can "settle" for a lower end motherboard. However, I also only upgrade every 3-4 years, so I want a...
