I'm upgrading a few parts and haven't really been paying much attention to todays hardware, so if I could get some suggestions/crits it would be greatly appreciated :)


ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe
SILVERSTONE SST-ST60F ATX 600W
AMD Athlon 64 FX57
2 x BFG Tech Geforce 7800GTX (SLI)

Thanks,

I suggest going dual core. It's cheaper and will last you longer.
(I'm going dual core in a few days)
 
i was going to go that route, (4800) but i read a thread about having to disable one of the cores to get some games to run properly. I really don't want to have to worry about that.
 
Im just upgrading the parts i listed.

current rig:
MSI K8N Neo2 platinum
AMD x64 3500+
2G Dual Chan PC3200
BFG 6800 Ultra (AGP)
36.7 Raptor
2 x 80G WD 7200rpm (Raid 0)
Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS Gamer
Antec True Blue 480

D3v, yeah thats what i was talking about. Thanks for the link. This is going to be mostly for gaming. I do do some work w/Lightwave, but gaming is more of a priority :D So with that in mind, would it be better to just stick w/the fx?
 
When they start making games that take advantage of dual core CPUs, single core processors wont be able to keep up.
And the fx-57 is so damn expensive :eek:

nVidia is already working on dual core support in there drivers.
