Nah I doubt that I can actually access the backplate from the case on this board lol

My case right now I have to unplug PSU, Take it out, Take GPU out, Take the HDD brackets out, Take HDD out, Take the heatsink off and turn it over without losing any screws >_>

I lost 2 screws trying before, Heatsink only has 2 screws now xD, and ofc gravity is still the only thing holding it on, The thermal paste is 3 years old and I just basically NEED this stuff lol, It makes so much noise from vibrations it gives me headaches at night, And I'm not joking


//EDIT Gunna spraypaint the PSU black because I can't stand it not looking right :/

THE GRAPHIC SETTINGS OF GRAND THEFT AUTO IV PC

Most users using current PC hardware as of December 2008 are advised to use medium graphics settings. Higher settings are provided for future generations of PCs with higher specifications than are currently widely available.

Graphics settings are limited by system resources by default. 256MB video cards force minimum settings by default. If a user bypasses these safety measures using command line arguments and exceeds their system resources, the users gaming experience may be compromised.


Medium.... Till.... New hardware comes out.... Now that is lazy as hell..

512mb Cards can't go over Medium, Trust me, Current card wont let me go over medium-low



4350 512mb 600MHz(C) 400MHz(M) DDr2


EDIT: 2008 has past now, High settings are availible for 1gb+ graphical card users with suitable CPU & RAM

That was totally worth the 4 hours taking my old case apart

I still havn't fitted the heatsink yet lol

I had trouble trying to get my hdd out of the old case, I'm so stupid I spent 2 hours trying to wedge it out then my dad comes and slides it up and out >_>

Oh well everything is working fine now except from one major stupidity of mine, The psu LOL

Cables don't reach

Dedicated +12v rail doesnt reach the slot :x

I have to have it out and demetedly hanging there

I've already ordered a Corsair 400w so no worries

GPU runs MW2 at max on 1080p reso no lag at all :D

AvP Runs MIGHTY FINEE on DX11 & Max :O :D

Stupidly CCC left my clocks from my 4350 so I had to go and re-install CCC


Core - 700MHz

Memory - 850MHz

1GB GDDR2
