My Computer

Brautigam · 11-21-2006, 09:45 PM

I'm building a new computer for Christmas and I may have a couple of questions along the way.

Here are the parts I have chosen so far:

Motherboard: ASUS P5B Deluxe Socket T (LGA 775) Intel P965 Express ATX Intel Motherboard - Retail

Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6300 Conroe 1.86GHz 2M sharing L2 Cache LGA 775 Processor - Retail

Video Card: eVGA 256-P2-N615-TX GeForce 7600GT 256MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card - Retail

RAM: CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory - Retail

Power Supply: SILVERSTONE SST-ST60F ATX 600W Power Supply 90 - 264 V - Retail

Fan: ARCTIC COOLING Freezer 7 Pro CPU Cooler - Retail

Harddrive: I am still thinking which one, I don't need help with it though...just the stuff below.

Now that's the base of my computer. I still need to get a good case as well and I have been looking around for a bunch of them with cool designs and especially USB, 1394, and audio ports on the front bottom of the case.

Also, The only thing about this video card is that it is a GDDR3 card. Will this work with my chosen motherboard still?

Thanks to anyone that helps!

As far as I know, it doesn't really matter what brand that you choose for card readers.

I would recommend one of these two sets of memory instead of the set you posted:

or
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145168

They have 4-4-4-12 timings instead of 5-5-5-12, and would be well worth the extra money. They are practically the same, other than the second has a better cooler and looks cooler
