hey everyone....
I just can't wait anymore. I need to build a new rig soon. I can't exactly decide on components. Primary use will be photoshop, web development, and a few games.
Link to system specs
Please tell me if I'm wasting money in one area. I thought I would shortchange my vid card until HL2 and Doom III actually get rolling and we really see what the measuring rod is.
Basically am I going about this the right way? Should I be looking at socket 939 instead? I already have a 21" monitor, keyboard, etc etc..... I might actually buy an official version on windows xp pro.
I see a lot of sub 1300 systems but i have a higher budget and i already have some of the elements. so I was hoping for some help reguarding my decision.
thoughts / opinions / suggestions
edit: oh my budget is sub 2000 somewhere. of course the cheaper the better as I would like to buy a notebook at some point this fall.
