Lol, that G.Skill was the first kit I actually looked at but thought I would go with a brand I am more familiar with. Luckily my buddy has had good luck with G.Skill. I was a bit unsure about their stuff at first.

Ok, I hope this works. Below is part of the build that I would like some feedback on to see if it now will be a decent rig with potential: https://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/Wishlist/PublicWishDetail.asp?WishListNumber=8830308&WishListTitle=Revision+2 Plus the Doublesight DS-263N and the...

Thank you AndonSage, that was an awesome reply. Really easy to understand. Danny Bui, thanks for the links. So I guess I now know what to go with. I'm going to draft up a revised list and I'll throw it up here tomorrow when I have more time. Thanks for all the info.

Alright, I guess I'll forget DDR3. But now I have a new problem. I can't figure out which mobo to go with. I don't mind if it doesn't support SLI right now I guess. At a quick powersearch on Newegg, I am looking at the ASUS Rampage Formula which seems to me I would be paying a whole lot for...

Thanks fellas. So far you guys have showed me some ways to do this mess better. So I'll try to further explain my logic. The reason why I'm aiming for DDR3 is that it eventually will be the standard, and if I'm building a new system I might as well try and adopt the new stuff now. I was...

So after my last theoretical build didn't go through, I have once again found myself in desperate need of a decent rig and soon. I am looking to spend not more then $3200 grand total in the end. The main purpose right now for the system is helping me finish my Solidworks project. But this...

Oh wow Frek77. Thank you very much for bringing that issue to my attention. Would have never even considered looking into that any further if you hadn't brought it up. Boy, this kinda makes things a bit more challenging. I feel very worried about getting a mobo which has potential issues...

Well, I've done some thinking and have taken into consideration what was mentioned in the place thread that I posted. Just wanted to say thanks a lot to the people that responded. Here was the old one: E6600 w/ EVGA 680i build help Instead of reposting the whole list, I though I would just...

I am trying to figure out a decent PC for not too much. This is going to be my first build, so hopefully it'll go smoothly. I would LIKE to spend less then $3,000 on the grand total, including tax and shipping. The system will be used for Solidworks right away, Adobe CS, watching movies...

That was my other area of concern. If I do get another 2407WFP, and I know that I really would like to, it would be in a year. I ham worried that they may no longer be sold or that they may not "match". That is, the old display would show use or degrade by that time and thus make for some...

Hello folks! I hope you all can help me out. Time has come for me to finally build a new PC to put this 6 year old AMD to rest. I've been jonesing for Battlefield for too long. A few other games have also caught my interest. But the thing is, I also surf a LOT, do some stuff in Adobe CS...
