GeForce 7800 GS
I have an ASUS P4G8X motherboard with an Intel P4 3.06 GHz processor,
1 GB of Mushkin PC2100 memory and a GeForce 4 5600 256 MB video card. I want to squeeze a little more life from this system before returning to the bleeding edge. My immediate problem is that the video card will not handle The Elder Scrolls: Oblivion and I am contemplating the installation of an XFX GeForce 7800 GS card to resolve the problem. Will this system handle the new video card and, if so, are there issues that I might need to address? TIA. |

Depending on where you look, it may vary. a.. Pentium 4/Celeron, AMD k6/Athlon b.. 256MB of system memory at least c.. Installation software requires CD-ROM driver d.. DVD playback requires DVD Drive e.. Windows XP/2000 f.. A minimum 400 Watt system power supply (with 12v current rating of 26A) g.. An AGP supplementary power connector |

I´m using a p4c800 dlx with a 3.05 HT Intel cpu, the xfx 7800 GS and have had big problems with my pci TV card. The problems where related to the 3.3 V comming from my former 300 W PSU. After changing the PSU to a 450 W all the problems are come. Maybe because the power consumption of this system was to high for the 300 W PSU or the PSU was broken. Nevertheless the new systems works well even when overclocking the vid card a lot. I just want to say that often BSOD or misfunction of systems are related to faulty or wrong PSU´s. |
