Time for a new PC
« on: April 24, 2008, 08:16:08 PM »
HMM all i know at the moment is that the cpu will be the intel 9650(9700 is overkill). Can someone link me to some good deals on blazing fast ddr3 ram and a good mobo to go with it, as well as some suggestions for vid card, money is not an issue, post links here.

motherboard: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16813131276

ram: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820231169

(or this if you want 4GB of ram for 64 bit operating systems): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820231167

video card: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16814143128

(sure you can crossfireX the 3870X2's, but honestly it's just a waste. it's your call)


if money isnt an issue, of course

Actually a 9800gx2 has had better benchmarks than two 8800 Ultra's in most games tested.  
Just one card imagine if you sli it.
