A quick check that I did appears to support that RAM. But, since I do not have that RAM in front of me, I...
I have an E8400 with 6 gig of Ram. I notice very little difference from when I had 4 gig.

I'd suggest getting an entire tool kit just so you can keep everything you need near your system. It doesn't cost a whole lot more than getting only an anti-static strap. You can get by with normal...
From another person who had no building experience at all and received a completely dead motherboard in the first shipment; you are making the correct decision. Whatever minor problems you encounter...
Really? Nobody has any input?
My P5KC can take either DDR2 or DDR3. I currently have 6 GIG DDR2 800. I'm in no hurry to switch; since everything is running fine now. But, I'd like to know the minimum DDR3 that I would need to...
Ah, but that is the very reason to know what to upgrade. I held out for the 45 and will be able to use the system I have for a few more years at least. Upgrading only what is necessary and...
None at all. Just preparing to plan for the future when I will possibly need things enhanced.

"Basic" sums it up nicely. That's why I was hoping there was another tool or program out there. It would be nice to have something say "nice video card, add a Gig of RAM to use it all.
My...
My, you did a lot of research going through old posts to answer my question. Or you hacked into my system. Impressive either way.
I figured that my next upgrade would be a video card at some...
I built my PC several months ago, and things are going just fine with it. But, I'm sure that I will need up upgrade things in the near future. Is there a way to tell where any bottlenecks are so I...
Especially since the MotherBoard has a 4Gig max.

The "important" difference is that you can use up to only 3 gig on Vista 32. 64 allows you to use more (8?).
I personally went with 64 because I expect programs in the near future to require at...
I believe that it is anything over 3 gig will be wasted.
Could simply be a bad mobo. A number of us had that same problem with the P5KC several months ago. Replaced motherboards made all the difference.

Some cases have fans which do not hook up to the motherboard. If you fan allows you to manually adjust the speed, then that might be it. You just hook the power into the fan. I know my Antec 900...
It looks very similar to the 900 (without the clear plastic and LEDs). I really like my 900; runs very cold and rather silent. From the newegg pictures, it looks like cable management would be a...
Different type of Mobo? That's good to hear. Now I won't have to worry about getting a new OS when I next need to upgrade.
A 32-bit OS can recognize (at most) 3 Gig of RAM. If you want to actually utilize more RAM, you need to get 64-bit. Might not be vital just yet. But, in a couple years 3 Gig probably won't run any...
I do not know this for a fact, but I do not think you can simply swap in an old hard drive and have the OS transfer to your new computer. If it can be done, I'd love to know for when I make my next...
You still need an OS. Since you want to go 4 Gig, make sure that it is along the lines of Vista 64.

I would, at some point, like to start saving TV programs on my computer. A quick search on the web didn't really answer all of my questions.
My current setup is this;
Antenna for local stations...
Why are the older models unable to support the newer video cards?
What makes the TX model different?
I'd start by looking at these for ideas about everything in your computer;
