I hear ya! I don't have a receiver though and looking at some they are pretty expensive, I don't have that much money to spend on speakers, a cheap receiver is around $300, speakers around $200, then I still have to buy speaker wire right, so I am looking at a minimum of around $500 which is too...

Ya, I am not looking to spend a lot of money and well from what I have found reading reviews, the Logitech Z Cinema is pretty good, crisp clear sound even when turned all the way up and with the SRS Surround Sound Technology I would get the illusion of a 5.1 system! I don't have enough room to...

If anyone knows or has a pair of these please feel free to elaborate. I would like to know what people think about the Logitech Z Cinema system! You can find them most places for around $150 now instead of their $350 price tag, $200 off I am thinking it's a pretty sweet deal! Every review I read...

I would like to know what people think about the Logitech Z Cinema as well, you can find them most places for around $150 now instead of their $350 price tag, $200 off I am thinking it's a pretty sweet deal! If anyone knows or has a pair of these please feel free to elaborate :D thx

I'd say get a GTX 260 core 216!! that's what I have and I love it, I play at 1920x1200 now, crysis looks amazing! The GTX core 216 is almost as fast as a 280 but $100 less, overclock it to 700/1200/1500 like I have and it's basically a GTX 280...

Like I said before, wait and get a 4850X2!! Will be out around the end of the month for around $400!!!

I say wait for the 4850X2 to come out which is at the end of the month and get that! From what I have read it will be around $400 and is pretty close to the performance of a 4870X2 but around $200 cheaper!! That's what I am going to do, going to be getting a 24" BenQ V2400W monitor soon and need...

No, you just need 1 PCI-E 2.0 slot to use a 4870X2. If you wanted to get 2 4870X2 cards then you would need a board that supports crossfire.

I am in the same boat semisonic, I am going to be getting a BenQ V2400W 24" LCD monitor and I am undecided which video card to get with it since I will be gaming at 1920x1200. I would like to get a 4870X2 but spending roughly $600 on a video card is just too steep, I was thinking more around...

Ahhhh, now it makes sense lol. Well thanks for the replies!! I can't wait to get a 4870x2!!

Looking at the OCZ site it says on the left hand side the 700W connectors, so you have the same connectors that I have since we both have the same power supply.(http://www.ocztechnology.com/products/power_management/ocz_gamexstream_power_supply-nvidia_sli_ready_) 700W Connectors**: 1...

Still doesn't answer my question :( Why did you say "Delete Please"? I just want to know if I am fine, do I need an adaptor and if I do where do I get one? I am sure my power supply's 6 pin and 6+2 pin means I have a 6 pin and an 8 pin right?

Would my OCZ 700W GameXStream Power Supply be able to run a 4870X2 card?? I read that this card needs 1 6 pin PCIE connector and 1 8pin PCIE connector, and looking at my Power Supply specs it has 1 6 pin and 1 6+2 pin, am I fine? I really want to get a 4870x2 but I don't have enough to buy a...

Is my PSU good enough for a 4870X2? According to this site (http://ati.amd.com/products/certified/powersupplies.html#pstop) it says it's not :( --- you have to click OCZ to see the certified PSU's. _______________________________________ Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3.4Ghz 4Gb PC2-6400 Patriot...

Sounds like a plan, what you guys just wrote made my decision so much easier to get the 4870x2 and not to look back!!! Can't wait, thanks guys!
