Thanks for the replies Danny Bui. Should I get 64bit or 32 bit windows?

I want to keep the option open for overclocking so a K cpu is a must. I also plan on getting new cpu cooling hsf. What current mobos are overclock friendly? Any chipsets or brands to avoid? Whats the difference between Win 7 premium and pro or ultimate? I am definitely going to see what kind of...

i want to get it up and running good before bf3 comes out. Dont want the teething problems of a new system to interrupt playing the new game. I will probably purchase and assemble this in august so i can get it all up to speed before the game is released.

The case im using is in my sig.

My current rig is starting to show its age and its time to upgrade. My budget is $1000 max, less if possible. I am planning on reusing case, optical drives, speakers, monitor etc. I have a copy of XP to use so don't need an OS. Primary uses are gaming. Have a 22" ws monitor running 1680x1050...

Sweet mine works fine now. Thanks for the help

Mines doing the same thing and its bugging me silly. It worked fine about a week ago then all of a sudden started keeping the fans and lights on but everything else off. I haven't changed a thing lately.

Ive had 2 MX518s and am currently using the G5. Both 518s had scroll wheel problems after about 6 months use. I do miss the forward button but have grown accustomed to not using it. I love the g5 and highly recommend it.

Ive told people before that i used different products than i actually used to get warrenty work done. What they dont know wont hurt them.

I have decided to hold off until the new amd and conroe come out. Save my money for now and build a better rig ready for vista next year. My current rig should hold up until then. Hopefully buy the time i build more apps and games will better utilize dual core and the prices fall a little...

Thanks for all the suggestions. I play a lot of bf2, a little oblivion, and msfs2004 from time to time. I listen to quite a bit of music. How much would a sound card help my performance? Is the opty 165 a good stable proc. im thinking dual core is the way to go. What is a good brand of 7900gt...

I have some money coming my way and was thinking of upgrading my comp. I will have approx. $1000 to spend. I currently have 2 6600GTs SLI and was thinking of moving to a single 78or7900 series card. I am also considering Dual core proc. What would you upgrade if you had my system in sig and...
