For my Birthday/Christmas I will be doing my annual upgrading.
My budget is $800, and I'm ordering from Newegg.
Right now I'm running
AMD Athlon X2 4600+
2gigs of Ram
7900GT
500Watt Fortron Source PSU
ABiT NF-M2 nView
In a Silverstone SG-01
The rest is not important.
Here's a list of what I have compiled.
COOLER MASTER RC-690
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16811119137
EVGA 8800GT
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16814130303
AMD Athlon 64 X2 5000+ Brisbane 2.6GHz Black Edition
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16819103194
CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16820145590
Vista 64-Bit Ultimate
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16832116215
and Tuniq Tower Heatsink
http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16835154001
After these upgrades, I will be running
AMD X2 5000+Black Edition
4GB DDR2 800
8800GT
500Watt Fortron Source PSU
ABiT NF-M2 nView
Dual Booting XP Pro and Vista Ultimate
Now I have a few questions
The motherboard I am using and will be using is mATX, that should work without giving me problems, correct?
Will my 500Watt Fortron Source PSU be able to handle all of this?
What fan (If any) would you recommend for the Tuniq Tower
Would this rig be able to run Crysis and COD4 adequately at 1680x1050 Resolution?
Thank you for your time and effort.
