    LMFAOO WOW..I was going to buy that same exact case because i am building my own gaming computer, not so cheat as u though :D

    But The Case, Antec900 is just as sexy without the CPU airduct gadget. I think the money you want to spend on a card is not worth it. Seems that ou dilemma might be the same as far as video cards go because i dont know weather DX10 or DX9 to get for now. How come you dont build an SLI??

    i haven't done it yet ether, it cant be that hard. just install the RAID drivers when you install windows
  11. akaivan Newcomer, in training

    lol k like right after i uninstall windows? or during ?


    BTW EVERYONE ALL PARTS ARE ORDERED!

    Honestly i dont know much about this raid stuff...Sata drives are easy, well at least at my job they are. The only problem i have is connecting the PSU sata cable into the HDD. Other than that I think its easy.

    when you boot up from a win XP cd it will ask you if you want to install any RAID drivers

    Hmm

    For the last year, year and a half maybe longer, all the single (non-raid) sata drives that I have set up on machines have been detected via XP with no driver install needed. Not saying all, but most motherboards now do not need the sata driver to detect a sata drive. Raid is another thing
  15. That was me that recommended that. And I can say that CPU, Memory and Motherboard are very good for the price. Those parts should do wonders.
