hey guys, i was wondering what the ultimate computer was.
so here is what i think.
2x 7800 GTX 512mb
fx-55 or fx-57 processor or the new fx-60 (which ever is better)
3x 74gb raptors (mayb more)
4gb corsair rams (2-3-3-6 timings)
2 dvd drives
850w sli powersupply
and can u guys name the best watercooling there is?
:eek:
 
I think an fx-60 would really be nice in my dream computer...*sigh* my wallet isnt big enough
 
I'm actually kinda curious as to what people think about this myself. I'm planning on building a "dream machine" once my contract is over. I've been trying to stay up on what components go best with other components. As I understand it, you can go buy all top of the line crap, but if it doesn't mesh well together then your wasting your money.
 
WC'ing is cool and all, but if you want to get the most out of the CPU, you're going to want a Vapochill. :D

There is no secret "chemistry" between computer parts.

Obviously the parts need to be compatible (if you're getting a slot a cpu then you can't get a socket a motherboard even if it were the best one) and sometimes the best part is not a significant improvement over the second-best (depending on where the bottleneck is), but in general a computer is pretty much a sum of its parts. The graphics card isn't going to pout because the DVD drive isn't his friend and the sound card won't be jealous of the superior computing power of the cpu. Shitty drivers and devices can cause problems with others, but if they are shitty they are pretty much by definition not the best...
