bump, updated my build

Its the best build summary i've seen in a while actually. From what you selected, I'm guessing that you aren't planning on overclocking. In that case it is probably pretty much perfect. I would consider paying a little extra money and getting a 7800gt, but whatever floats your boat.

if you play more than cs:s then youll need a lareger hard drive considering the space for music/movies and misc

otherwise its pretty decent

id put a 7800gt instead of the x850xt and then youll have on kick ass system

edit: saw the things your going to add

rox1co · Feb 25, 2006

let me edit my post

but anyways, i'm using 80GB just for windows n anti-spy/vir programs and 250GB for gaming/media

and most likely go up to 1TB after movies

(i hate burning onto DVDs)

80 GB is really more than enough. For some specialized purposes, they'll need more.

10 GB = 3,500 MP3's. That's a little tad much, don't you think?
10 GB = 14 DVD's. A potential of 110 movies that no one will watch.

$574 was the price

but i can say it was well worth it

PWMK2 · Mar 7, 2006

I got my X850XT PE for $480 back in July...

But it's the AGP version with the R481 core, which they're not making any more, so thank goodness.

And yes... it was worth it.

rox1co · Mar 9, 2006

ok guys i'm on my monster computer now

i'm having some problems though

my hard drive isn't reading 250GB but rather 137GB? i've got a Western Digital

also, anyone try that Dual Core Gaming Fix? i tried #1 but it would screw my computer up and i had to reformat

(happen 3x)

Mayhs · Mar 9, 2006

update your motherboard bios...

rox1co · Mar 9, 2006

a very big step up from my old computer

CPU score is like 9x better, lol

u see the cable at the middle of my mobo? that was too short

lesson here, do not get an AeroCool Spiral Galaxies if ur cables r not LONG ENOUGH!

i plan on fixing it somewhere, will update pics
