Great system mate!

Is that a FX5500 a PCI card?

 

[F1N3ST]

Ya, its PCI. It is also a piece of **** lol.

 

[wolfram]

You really need to get that X1950PRO hehe.

Congratulations, you'll have an excellent machine (of course, without that piece of **** )

Regards :wave:

 

[F1N3ST]

It's not a piece of ****, it's my piece of ****. The X1950PRO was 165$ for a ASUS brand, with a good heatipipe cooler. About 2 hours ago, it sold out haha.

 

[wolfram]

$165 for a X1950PRO

That's why it sold out...

 

[nickslick74]

Where did you get that price???? Linky please!!

 

[F1N3ST]

Newegg. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814121031 Well, 170$ after shipping, jk. It was a great deal, and it has a good cooler, and supports HDCP.

 

[wolfram]

Man, if you get it, please tell me how good it performs. Maybe I can sell my X850 and get it

 

[F1N3ST]

I will get it soon.....Very soon....... Except I might get the IceQ3 Card instead, 260$. But if the ASUS one is in stock, sure ill save 100$ lol.

 

[tifc8lraz]

That's a nice setup FIN3ST! Good luck to you.

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16835166049 Is that worth it over a plain old heatsink? I only have 7$ left in my paypal, and is all I can afford.

 

[AMDIsTheBest010]

very nice system indeed

...AMD

 

[GeekieNick101]

Yes it is a very nice system

 

[F1N3ST]

Yay, it must be pretty nice for a guy named AMDIsTheBest010 lol. But I already knew that .

 

[Rage_3K_Moiz]

Nice system but if ur gonna get an X1950PRO, u will need at least a quality 450-500W PSU. That 300W one will simply blow if u try to use the card with it.

 

[F1N3ST]

The 300W is quad-SLI approved, it should do the trick.Note, it is a GRAPHGICS card power supply, it only powers graphics

[Rage_3K_Moiz]

Hmm. Sorry, I never knew those existed. Gotta get me one of those...

 

[F1N3ST]

Lol, I didnt either. It is pretty nice thogh, and looks sexy.

 

[F1N3ST]

Getting Cord Wednesday, im gettin ready And I am gonna OC it to 2.3Ghz, and then lower voltages below stock for a long lasting processor
