I think i have finally made my decision on my PC!!

7angofragger · 12-14-2006, 05:50 PM

I currently have an X1900AIW 256MB PCIX16, 1GB DDR400, AMD 64 4000+, and a 120GB IDE 100MB/s. This is what i am upgrading to. A BFG 7950GT OC 512MB GDDR3, Western Digital 80GB SATAII 3.0GB/s, a Zalman 7700 cooler for my CPU, and a Zalman VF900 for my video card. Does this sound good? Any suggestions? Any Comments?

videocard isnt really too much of an upgrade... look into the X1950XT(X)

why not go for the new 8000 series nvidia card?

That's a lot of money to spend on such a little upgrade...

yea i wouldn't bother upgrading that setup if it were me, mostly because it's not based around the right components. If i were you i'd save up some money and build a whole new system with a core 2 duo or something, then get your spiffy new video card, you could steal parts from your current setup to save money. I do that a lot.
