    My new workstation build

    Where did you get the deal on the Raptor 150? I've been looking around recently. I think the maintenance guy in my apartment stole my previous one. :confused:

    Best case for this gear?

    Thanks a lot for the comments guys, I'll have to take a look into the P180 and other thermaltake cases. I've actually been checking out reviews of cases on google.com/video. This one guy posts a review of about every major case out there, it helps for actually getting a feel for the design...

    Best case for this gear?

    Yeah my basic constaints are that: it needs to be huge (I want a full tower because of cooling & space), not over 200 bones, needs to fit the tuniq tower or similar massive cpu cooler, and should be relatively easy to work with. So given that scenario I think the field is narrowed...

    Best case for this gear?

    Hey everyone, I'm looking for the best case within a reasonable price range for the following gear. Here are the constrains: The case needs to be sub $200, needs to be a full tower with plenty of room for expansion. Originally, I selected the Stacker 810, but then I've recently thought about...

    Long overdue system upgrade (7 years in the making)... Need all the help I can get

    Memory: Consider getting the G. Skill I mentioned earlier or equiv. With the e6600 you won't need extremely powerful ram to reach the highest OC possible on air. Case: I'm also going with the Thermaltake Armor so I'd recommend it as well, however, the Stacker 830, if you can afford it, is...

    Long overdue system upgrade (7 years in the making)... Need all the help I can get

    Here's a decent little article on what you could expect from a GTS OC vs. a GTX, in general. Although for a 24" monitor you'll have to roughly average between two bench marks done by THG, but it's pretty easy to get a good estimate...

    Long overdue system upgrade (7 years in the making)... Need all the help I can get

    A feq questions... What made you decide to go with the 650i rather than the 680i, I see that you're not running SLI, so why not a 965P series chipset? I'm assuming you're going to overclock with the parts that you've listed, so my next comment is on the memory. Any reason for buying such a...

    Just Double Checking this $1400 Build

    I've heard that the DS3 from newegg is a hit or miss because it's not known what revision you'll get. I also hear that ClubIT has a gauruntee'd rev 3.3, which is what you'd want.

    Upcoming rig: suggestions needed

    How about suggestions for other motherboards? Benefits of 680i vs. the chipset on the DS3? How about CPU? Overclockability of the 6700 vs. 6600 after the price drop, compared to 6420, etc.? Any particular steppings i should be looking out for?

    Unlimited funds: what would you build?

    A recent thread sparked my interest on this subject, so my question to all enthusiasts out there is, what would you build given an essentially unlimited budget, imagine you're the CEO of a major corporation and bring in 5-10 million a year. What would you do with all that money, buy more...
