Ho Ho Ho Merry Christmas to all,
After 10 years, Santa IS coming to my house. 10 years ago Santa brought me a new motherboard for Christmas and I assembled my XP Pro box (as shown in my Profile). And I know for a fact He will repeat his gift giving this Christmas...cause I just wrapped it
I hope this is the beginning of your Holiday spirit of giving your much needed advice and it continues until my new Win 7 PC is running. To start it off, I have assembled a list of components for this new box and wish to get as much comment and criticism as possible. I'm a Geek in the making, so I still look for answers.
Here's my list to start:
Processor: Intel i7 875K
Heatsink: Thermalright Cogage True Spirit
Motherboard: Asus P7P55D-E Pro (Thank you Santa)
Power Supply: Corsair AX850 or AX750
Memory: Corsair CMX4GX3M2A1600C9 (for starters)
Videocard: Sapphire Radeon HD 6870
Soundcard: Onboard for now
Speakers: Old Klipsh 2.1
Hard Disks: WD Caviar Black 1 TB Sata 6GB/s (to start)
Optical Disk (Blu-Ray): Lite-On iHBS212 12X or LG WH10LS30K 10X (future)
Opticak Disk (DVD): Lite-On iHAS624 or Optiarc AD-7260S
Case: Corsair 600T
Operating System: Windows 7 Home Premium (Family Pack) 64 bit and
Windows XP Professional SP3 (dual boot or virtual drive?)
Hope everyone has a wonderful Christmas and I welcome your thoughts and experience,
RiSki
