TyxLonestar Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 hoofhearted4 - The problem with the motherboard was that is is only able to handle up to a 95wat processor and the model of the Phenom II I got is actually 125wat. So I got that fixed now with a new motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-78LMT-USB3 AM3+ AMD 760G HDMI USB 3.0 Micro ATX AMD Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813128565 and Renn I have a 500wat PSU so I should be good in that aspect of things. Unfortunately I didn't research enough it seems so, at least from what I am being told I will be able to run these games I could not play before on my computer so that is good enough for now, I will be upgrading as I go along to get a full size motherboard and gaming build to run things perfectly. Thanks for all the feedback everyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blove Posted January 3, 2013 Share Posted January 3, 2013 If you are planning on getting a full-ATX mainboard later (though it is not necessary to go full-size, I use a micro-ATX myself), keep in mind that your selected case only supports micro-ATX. Also, that case might have issues with airflow and longer GPUs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyxLonestar Posted January 3, 2013 Author Share Posted January 3, 2013 Yeah I know that I will have to get a different case, and also noticed that the case I now have does have poor air flow so I am going to see how it runs and possibly get a better cooling unit if needed.
