4GB of RAM?
Why.
OK I assembled my second build using these exact parts:
RAM: 4GB ( 2 X 2GB ) DDR2 DIMM (240 PIN) AM2 1066Mhz PC2 8500 FOR ZOTAC AND MSI MOTHERBOARDS 4 GB:Amazon:Electronics X2
Motherboard: https://www.pacificgeek.com/product.asp?id=949725
CPU: Intel® Core
{currently using stock cooler to cool this thing}
HDD: ST32000542AS Barracuda LP SATA 3Gb/s 2TB Hard Drive | Seagate
Optical drive: Its just a stupid DvD drive nothing special about it
Case: Amazon.com: Cooler Master HAF 932 Advanced Full Tower Case with SuperSpeed USB 3.0 - (RC-932-KKN5-GP): Electronics
Power Supply: Viotek 1100 Watt Dual Rail Quad SLI Ready Power Supply w/ Sleeved Cables, PCI-E 8 Pin, 9 SATA, 140mm Silent Fan at 3B Tech - Buy computer parts, notebooks, desktops, & home electronics
Video Card: Newegg.com - ASUS ENGTX560 TI DCII/2DI/1GD5 GeForce GTX 560 Ti (Fermi) 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card
OK, I assembled this muthr fuggr with all those peices, started it up and it worked fine for the first start. Loaded the OS (WIN 7 ULT 64BIT), and it went pretty smoothly. My first problem however was that the CPU overheated and kept shutting off due to me not putting the thermal paste on correctly. But after I wiped the paste and applied new paste, I checked my BIOS and had no problem with heat anymore. SO, everything was cool. But the problem now is that Whenever i turn the fucker on and wait for windows to load, i get stopped at the windows is loading screen (or whatever the Fck its called) and when those 4 colorful balls are in the process of forming the windows logo it gets stuck at the 1st red ball and just freezes. Ive tried everything, even hitting F8 before the motherboard screen passes, and everytime I try to use one of the repair options, the bitch does the same exact thing it does with those balls -_-, or its just freeze the fuck up and stay there...
IDK whats going on.. can someone tell me if its the hardware I used or some shit.. im clueless at this point
Please excuse my audacity to go for cheap parts... I was on quite the budget due to the amount of money Ive already spent on my musical equipment.
