Hello
My hardware seems to come into a certain age and shows it: daily one to three sudden deaths, slower then usual and sort of overheating. No wonder, are the MB, the processor and the graphic card now over 4 years old.
I have now found the four main ingredients and would like to ask if there are any negative or positive comments from the comunity.
Motherboard: Asus Intel Sabertooth Z77 with SMART DIGI+Digital 8+4 Phase design
Memory for motherboard: Desktop 8GB DDR3-1600MHz DIMM
Processor: Intel Core i5-3550 Ivy Bridge Retail Box Processor
Graphic card: ASUS NVIDIA GeForce GT640 2GB Graphics Card
The dubious point is, that I need two pci-slots (not pci-e) for the satellite-TV and can get no real info on the web for this motherboard. The vendor (Maplin, UK) has confirmed, but I am not absolutely sure, if he has understood what I need.
So, thanks for any comments.
Alternatively, I am also prepared to buy another TV-S card with at least one cam possibility. Any such suggestions are welcome. Mine is by now about 10 years old, a TechnoTrend modded for Linux.
