What are you talking about? CS4 will run perfect on that.

Also slim, I don't like your sig. I'm not watched, either.

Post by: ~:Dhruv:~ on July 26, 2009, 11:25:29 AM: instead of digsby .. i'll recommend pidgin (more stable and less resource heavy) , CoreAVC (best HD codec) , CCCP , Zoom Player , Alcohol120% , uTorrent :D and vlc for the uncommon files. MSOffice / Open Office...

Post by: Slim Hacker on July 26, 2009, 08:02:58 PM: Is it bad that acording to speed fan my GPU and core temps are at anywhere from 60 -70 degrees Celsius???
Title: Re: OK....
Post by: PspKicks316 on July 26, 2009, 09:57:06 PM: Well a fan won't give you a temperature...a sensor will.
And I guess it's fine. Mine range anywhere from 40C (on boot after being off for hours) to 90C (OUCH.) but on average mine are around 60-80C, so I guess you're fine.

I think he was talking about SpeedFan . Its a software which shows u current CPU , GPU temps and Fan speeds , Voltages , etc....

Post by: PspKicks316 on July 26, 2009, 11:12:55 PM: Ohhh. Well, my point still stands...mine runs about the same so he should be fine. lol
Unless mine is running hot...then we're both screwed xD

Post by: ~:Dhruv:~ on July 26, 2009, 11:41:48 PM: Mine is always at around 85C ( minimum.... )

85 celsius? are you sure?
mine runs at around 65ish, if it got that hot it'd crash. My model's famous for it's crappy temp's and its at 65-70 so you should be looking at something below that to keep your hardware decent, 85 would damage the internals after a while.

I replaced the fan and applied new paste... nothing much left to do with it... Its a POS 6 yrs old machine. ALSO i'm in India and as it is , its already around 40C outside.....

This machine is due for retirement by the end of this year.
