Okay, check this out. With tax and shipping this comes out to $800 even (that's not including $35 in mail in rebates). The cpu is a quad core, that thing is beast and will last you years. The Mobo is an AM3 socket, future proof, so if you wanted to upgrade to a 6 core cpu later, you can. The...

Just use this guide. I did when I built my first computer. Spend some time on this forum posting parts in one thread and see what people think. I spent 6 months on this forum researching before I actually built one ( you dont have to, i just wanted to get my money's worth). Making sure parts...

Thanks for the advice. I checked a couple things out and found a few cool air cooling systems for my gpu. Im running a 5850. know of anything that will aircool it even better?

http://www.computerforum.com/169872-how-crossfire.html Made a thread on basic crossfiring answers. Hope it will help a little :good:

I've been looking into Water Cooling my gpu (and cpu). But, I don't know of any good companies or tutorials to pull this off. Anyone have advice or links that could help me? Thank you in advance.

just saying its possible, worth is probably not.

That's what the motherboard can handle. And yes if your ram is capable of overclocking that far you can safely. I have mine overclocked to 1600mhz on that board I listed. Glad I could help :good:

the antec 900 is $20 cheaper, i have it, its the same thing. And personally i like the top better on the 900, looks clean cut. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16811129021&cm_re=antec_900-_-11-129-021-_-Product Also, you could save on this mobo, i have it and nothing at all...

Any one in specific? I agree with you, I am looking for a permanent solution to my desktop.

It's worth giving a shot, because triple channel is expensive and I dont want my 4gbs to go to waste.

I was looking into upgrading to a i7 920. just a thought, im not sure. I currently have 2x2gb of ddr3 g.skill ripjaws. could i buy one more 2gb stick (ddr3) and call that triple channel, or do I have to buy a certain pack of ram that comes with 3 sticks?

still have the question quoted above

well if I have a N router, will a b/g wireless card still work? and also, might sound dumb, but could I use a router as a wireless card, or is there anything other than wireless cards to get a signal?? (just because most wiresless cards ive seen are cheap and I play games online a lot and its...

do I need wireless N? thought lower end cards b/g were compatible with pretty much anything, just slower?

I have a home built desktop running windows 7 64 bit. Im looking for a wireless card that runs on the operating system fine. Ive searched for a bunch on newegg, but a lot seem to have issues with windows 7 64 bit. Is there anything besides a wireless card that I could use to pick upa...

yes, you will have to reinstall windows 7 if you still have the install disk. you will want to back up your old hard drive, unless you dont mind losing that info. You could clone it with third party software. its not that problematic.

True, probably will be good for my comp. a lot of junk on it. Thanks, it helped a lot.

custom drivers could be an option, but I hate messing with that stuff. I might as well just say "screw physx" and just crossfirex my 5850. Like the tesselation will make a difference to me when im getting over 100+ fps :) Thanks for the help and knowledge. Ill put some research into...

that's what I thought, thank you Edit: Am I able to load the OS and have it format the drive through the install process?

I have a new Mobo in the mail. I was wondering how I could get the old Motherboard drivers off my hard drive and be able to install the new one. My idea was to get a new hard drive and start the build with that, then wipe the old drive through the comp. But, i don't have another hard...
