    I am going to go with the 9800 Pro. I told him the new price, and gave him the option of adding 512MB. He is going to get back to me today, but i think it will end up being a 9800 Pro + 1 Gig of ram. Is there a website that talks about tweaking a system for 1942, or are there not that many...

    Will probably go with the 128 MB 9600 then. Is the NF7-S picky about ram?

    Ok

    Argghhh http://www20.tomshardware.com/graphic/20031229/vga-charts-04.html I guess i could get the 9700 Pro, and drop back to 1x512MB Ram.

    Ok

    Will go with the 128MB 9600XT then, i need to shave a few bucks off. Is the NF7-S really picky about what ram you give it?

    The NF7-S supports SATA, so might as well get a SATA 80GB if i go with that. If i do not want SATA, is there much difference between the NF7 and the NF7-S?
