hey everyone, i wanted a new comp since im going to give the one i have now to my little brother, originally i didnt want to spend more than $1500, but with the stuff im eyeing its about to be $2000 - which is my limit - obviously i am going to build it on my own, but i wanted to see if i can get some pointers on if theres possible conflicts or bottlenecks that will decrease the performance enough to warrant changes.
So far this is my shopping list from Newegg --
- ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe Socket 939 NVIDIA nForce4 SLI ATX AMD Motherboard - retail
- eVGA 256-P2-N530-AX Geforce 7800GTX 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - retail
- Maxtor DiamondMax 10 6L300S0 300GB 7200 RPM Serial ATA150 Hard Drive - OEM
- NEC Silver IDE DVD Burner Model ND-3540A - OEM
- AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ Manchester 1GHz FSB Socket 939 Dual Core Processor Model ADA3800BVBOX - Retail
- CORSAIR XMS 1GB (2 x 512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 (PC 3200) Unbuffered Dual Channel Kit System Memory Model TWINX1024-3200XLPT - Retail
- OCZ OCZ520ADJ ATX 520W Power Supply - Retail ** not sure might use one thats coming with this alienware case im thinking of purchasing **
- ViewSonic G90FB Black 19" CRT Monitor D-Sub - Retail
total so far is - $1850
to be honest i really wanted to wait for ATIs R520 cards but i dont think i can wait till then to build this thing and they seem to be taking their sweet time.
