sooo i need a new system i havent really updated anything on mine since ive joined the forums. So my system is roughly four years old.
curret:
amd 64 4000+
asus a8v deluxe motherboard
x850 pro 256 graphics card
320gb sata hdd
2 gig corsair xms
creative x-fi playtinum soundcard
looking to build:
-AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+ Windsor 3.2GHz 2 x 1MB L2 Cache Socket AM2 Processor HERE
-ASUS CROSSHAIR AM2 NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI MCP ATX AMD Motherboard -
HERE
-OCZ SLI-Ready Edition 4GB(2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit - HERE
-BFG Tech BFGR88640GTSOCE GeForce 8800GTS 640MB 320-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card - HERE
so thats what im thinking for now. I still need a power supply and dont know what to look for in one of those. Also I'm not sure on the ram... I don't wanna spend a ton on ram unless ill notic ea difference and only getting one graphics card for now to cut back on cost lol....
opinions? thoughts?
That came to about $934 but ill probably end up getting a different case and will need a power supply so ill have to budget a couple more

I say, drop the 640mb 8800gts altogether and go with a 512mb 8800gt. It will save you some money and should perform better. Assuming you can find one.

Agreed.
Also, instead of the 6400, maybe just the 6000. Not sure what the price diff is, but might save a few $$ |
