I recently built a Lan Box for Gaming on, around an Asus P5K-E Intel E6850, Thermalright Ultra 120, 4 Gigs of OCZ DDR2 1066 Platinum, Asus EN9600GT 512, LG 20 X DVD+/-RW SATA, 250 Gig Seagate 7200.10 300 SATA, Ultra XBlaster MidTower Black, CoolerMaster Real Power Pro 750 Watt PSU.
SamSung 22" 2ms LCD, Vista Ultimate 64 Bit, and I must say it plays Crysis just great. I've never been so pleased with the excellent performance.
My Main Rig is an EVGA 680I Core 2 Duo Corsair setup with an MSI 8800 Ultra T2d768 OC Edition which at the time was the Highest Overclocked Card you could buy. The Point is, I liked the Asus Mobo better than the SLI Rig, as it's been a constant problem with BIOS Updates, Thermal Interface Mods, and I lost 2 Hard Drives, but when it runs right, it's a fast setup. |
