Computer gaming basics part3

Bsod is caused by many things:over clocking to far, software issues, power supply issues and over heating issues.

If your system is not getting enough power when you start playing a game the voltage will drop just enough not to cause the system to shut down but to cause software issues. system chips are very sensitive to voltage changes. most can handle up to 2volts +/- when it goes over that it will cause heat issues or intermittent system shut downs.

I know it’s late but baghira stated you should look into a graphics card with direct x10 over direct x9. This is not important and direct x10 cards right now do not offer anything better than a direct x9 card. Performance is about the same and the graphics arent any better switching to direct x 10.
