Is the F.T.W one just as noisy as the normal EVGA one below ?It looks the same sort of fan so i should think it would. And is it as noisy as people say?Either card is a great price.

I'm not saying I wouldn't own a blower style GPU, because I have one. This is one of my GTX 970s. The blower style fan just has a different tone to it, kinda like a hair dryer. The plus side is it exhausts 100% of its air out the back instead of heating up the inside of the case. I would put up with the tone for an otherwise really good deal.

Is there much difference between the non-F.T.W version of the card? Bearing in mind the F.T.W is £14 pounds more? I see the F.T.W. does not have a backplate on it. I think the ASUS is going to be more than the £39 pound of the F.T.W version.I'm not saying I wouldn't own a blower style GPU, because I have one. This is one of my GTX 970s.

As Mr Scott said, either one would be a good buy.

Can i ask you some questions is this FTW better than the one in the video Full working order, tested recently for £39?The seller has removed the buy it now for the Asus one so don,t know how much that will go for on Auction. Or should i go for this one EVGA the normal one for £20 ?People have said the EVGA it is very loud.I just looked on F.M.P and some one is selling the F.T.W for £20 ? As is the case most of the time it is in the other side of the country.So whats your view on all this Lex?The guy selling Asus card is a new seller i don,t think he knows what he is doing.He got back to me saying quote*You can buy it now for 30* I don,t know Weather he wants to sell it to me for that price or not.Of course i said to him that would be fine by me.Looking at the price for Asus cards they are the smaller ones without the back plate.I think he could get £50 for it,But i am happy to take it off his hands for 30.
Not really, they're actually fairly quiet.And is it as noisy as people say?

Nice! Commando was one of the first ROG boards, I actually haven't even thought that the brand is over 16 years old already.View attachment 275292View attachment 275293

Asus ROG Commando complete with IO shield and proprietary sound card, E6300, 4gb Kingston Ram, Sapphire HD5450 1gb, and a copper core Intel cooler.
Was sold as is since it had been sitting for years but was a working pull prior. Still works fine. I really wasn't in the market for this and didn't want everything the board came with, but for the price I couldn't resist.
I need to stop buying 775 boards but I know myself well enough to know that will never happen
Nice board. From my experience the p45 platinum isn't the best board for OC but it looks really neat.
Is it worth going for the F.T.Q version , or is the difference very small.?And bearing in mind the FTW version is £14 pound more?As Mr Scott said, either one would be a good buy.

The difference is minor. Either one will be an excellent choice for the system you're building.Is it worth going for the F.T.Q version , or is the difference very small.?And bearing in mind the FTW version is £14 pound more?
I thought that was the case, I got in touch with the seller on F.M.P. I will see if he can do it for cheaper than £25. In the meantime, I have other options, to wait to see how the Asus the one with the back plate goes in the auction that finishes late tomorrow.The difference is minor. Either one will be an excellent choice for the system you're building.

Thanks again for your advice. I will leave it open.It seems from what i have read on line there is not much between them only the noise facter of the blower 670.Any of the three cards you are considering would be fine. The FTW & Asus DirectCU II OC are both factory overclocked a little bit, but you can easily overclock the standard EVGA card to the same clocks as the FTW. The Asus recommends a 450w PSU so you're good there.

His never happy with what he buys for peanuts it' was only 5 euros I would be over the moon paying five pounds for it. Some people are never satisfied.He could sell the GPU for more than 5 euros. I dare say he could get more than 5 euros for the case. I see very few PCs at my local flea market. and if I do they are the usual Dell and HP. I did see an old Mac pro like the one here. I do like his videos but he is a moaning mini. I don,t think anyone likes those crapThe difference is minor. Either one will be an excellent choice for the system you're building.

.I don,t know why the connecter is right in the corner.
It certainly is. Thanks but which way do I connect the 2 x 4 connectors the clips facing the fan or facing the case?A lot of the CPU power connectors are in the corner on the older motherboards. They were always a pain in the butt to connect.
I found that a pair of needle nose pliers or medical forceps would work best for reaching down in there to connect the plug to the socket.

What's all that about Lex? Do I need to have the 8 pins connected?Oh, I can't quit you, babe
So I'm gonna put you down for awhile
I said I can't quit you, babe
I guess I got to put you down for awhile
Said you messed up my happy home
Made me mistreat my only child
Yes, you did, babe, oh
Can i get away with just useing the one 4 pin?I did at somepoint push the plugs togeterher.A lot of the CPU power connectors are in the corner on the older motherboards. They were always a pain in the butt to connect.

This was sold as a "Gforce Pny Video Card model 392" and as with a lot of PNY cards the stickers on it don't help identify it much at all. I concluded it was probably a 9800 GTX but I couldn't be sure so I put a conservative bid on it accordingly, and to my surprise nobody else bid on it.

Turns out it's a working PNY Reference 9800 GTX+ (G92 B1 revision). I haven't stress tested it yet, but it does boot windows and drivers install so I'm betting it's perfectly fine.
Went ahead and repasted it and blew out some dust. Probably will stick this in a core2 machine.

It's got it's fair share of small scratches but overall is in decent shape. I might see just what newer games I can get running on this because it has some power behind it still. I know lack of proper dx11 support let alone dx12 will not allow much to run though.The 9800 GTX/+ is the only card to use that rounded cooler design, so you were right to come to that conclusion. It's very hard to find these that aren't all horribly scratched up.
I think the very worst case of this is the EVGA X58 boards. Where the connector is in the corner of the board squeezed so close to the vrm heatsink that the latch of the eps often gets caught on it.A lot of the CPU power connectors are in the corner on the older motherboards. They were always a pain in the butt to connect.

The board is MSI 7513 all I am getting is a red light and no lights on the front of the case, and to cap it all I tried to get the board out of the case it is just going around with the standoff. it would be a standoff that I can,t get to I take it you weren't, talking to me about a GPU to make it work? I wanted to get the board out. What does it mean just a Red light nothing else.i have connected all power and all that stuff .It is a E8600..Clip faces right, lines up with the notch on the eps connecter on the board.
If the cable is long enough, you can try and run it behind the motherboard tray and then across the top to the connector on the board like this.View attachment 276021
You will need a graphics card to get this system up and running. P45 has no graphics built in.

That was directed at you.

Ok thanks But why am i not getting any light on the power button ?I can,t get the board out one of the stand off is going round with the screwNext time i build should i tighten the stand offs more?I wish i had tried it before i put it in the case.That was directed at you. Sorry I should have quoted.
Your board doesn't have any built in graphics, you are going to need a graphics card for it to function.
Also your ram is in the wrong slots. Try slots 2 and 4.
