Wow, thank you Preytheon that is a fantastic write up and super helpful. I will go through that lot and see what is available but it gives me a great place to start.

Hi everyone, I want to add a second monitor to my set up and I am currently using the GPU built into my motherboard (ASRock FM2A75 Pro), which won't handle two monitors, so I need a separate graphics card that can run two monitors. I don't do any gaming, so this is just for day to day work, it...

Hi Bledd, thanks for the suggestions above. I did what you said and downloaded the ISO image and burned it to a USB stick using Rufus, however when I tried to boot from it I got an exception error and it didn't work?? It just froze waiting for a new command, should i have typed anything. I...

In a nutshell I have an AsRock FM2A75 Pro 4 motherboard running the AMD chipset drivers, which do not work with Samsung Magician and I cannot update the firmware on my 840 Evo SSD (Silly boy for buying these together in the first place but that's for another day). I tried doing it with a USB key...

I posted this in the drive forum but I mght get a different answer here. I did a fresh install of Win 7 onto my new 840 Evo, including updates and drivers. I then found out about Samsung Magician and loaded that on as well. However now whenever I boot into Windows I get a pop up asking if I...

My apologies, I did read your link but obviously not deeply enough ;) I will give that a go and see if it works. Thanks

Thanks for the idea but that isn't really going to help as I go onto the computer as a variety of times and not a set pattern. Does anyone else have this problem when using Samsung magician??

I wasn't sure whether to put this in the windows forum or here but as it is about Samsung magician for their SSD I thought here would be best. I installed my Samsun Evo SSD, put on Win 7 and then added Samsung magician. Now whenever i boot up i get a pop up asking me if i want to allow...

I seeee. If temps do keep climbing once I start loading the OS then I may think about reapplying the gunk.

Sorry but what do you mean by blather it??:confused:

Thanks guys, been a while since I did a new build so maybe I am worrying over nothing. I think i will continue and then see what the temps look like once everything is in place, maybe they will settle down a bit. Just glad it booted to the bios ;):D

I have just put together my new set up and booted just to the BIOS, just to check it does boot, and the CPU temprature seemed to be quite high (39 deg) from boot and climbing until I turned everything off. The components are: ASrock FM2A75 Pro 4 Mobo AMD A8-5600K Coolermaster Hyper TX3 Evo...

Can anyone help me with my memory selection?? I have been reading about different voltages as well (getting more confused) are the ones i linked too okay?? Thanks

I am back and need some more help. The original gigabyte motherboard I was going for is out of stock all over the place so I have moved onto an alternative, ASRock FM2A75 Pro4 AMD A75, which also has what I need. So i want to check on memory again to be sure I am getting the right thing...

Cheers, there are a few bits out of stock, I will give them a call.

Potty27 - Do you know when that SSD is due to be available, cannot seem to find an on sale date anywhere??

This is looking good, thanks for all of the suggestions guys.

I feel violated, my thread got hacked off topic :( (Only joking) Thanks for the suggestions Teppic, I will take alook at what you suggested.

Thanks for the help so far, I am probably aiming for about £350 for the lot, hence the choice of going for an A8 chip rather than the A10, although the difference between them seems quite small from reviews and doesn't warrant the extra £20 as well. Doomedspeed - I need PCI slots and not...

So my old NF7-S board finally gave up the ghost and it is time to come up to date(ish). I have budget constraints so trying to get the best bang for my buck that I can. There is one restirction that I have, the new board needs to have 2 PCI slots as my Creative sound card needs them and i...
