    First Computer Build Under $1000

    if you're planning to overclock i would go with the ddr2 800 ram if not then the 667 will be fine

    building a surveillance computer help?

    the reason i said a good CPU is because if he just stores raw video footage without some sort of compression then his 2 500 Gbs will not amount to squat. So video compression would require a decent cpu unless you want to spend all day long compressing a nights worth of surveillance footage with...

    Operating System Situation???

    on a system like that with that amount of ram yes downgrading will make a big difference. XP uses a lot of ram. As for your question about installing 98 honestly i have no idea but i don't really see how it would work it seems it would try to install it onto the drive where the files are...

    Would it be foolish?

    i could be wrong but i really don't see DDR3 ram being all that much better than DDR2. Sure there will be a performance gain but it will be slight and im sure unnoticeable in day to day computing. Thats just my thoughts then again who really knows.

    building a surveillance computer help?

    well that seems to me that would require some audio/video editting. so i would think a decent processor and probably a decent GPU i can't say exactly what you should be looking into as i've never really had any experience with surveillance but i wouldn't think a top of the line GPU would be...

    X1950gt

    is this card much better than a radeon X1800XT? Enough to upgrade to it. I have a 256 mb X1800XT and the X1950 GT is 512 mb

    To pre-order or not to pre-order, that is the question.

    not only stand out there for days but in the process you get shot and robbed by a bunch of little nerds :P

    ok maybe a different PSU i apparently did not read very well on that one and there is no PCI - E connector people nag about the rosewill psu's but i personally like them. I've owned 3 and never once had an issue with them

    for casual gaming and your goal is to run fear i think an 8800 GTS is a bit much. No offense to the guys that suggested it but if you're a casual gamer DX10 means squat to you. Not to mention there's no games out that use it. I think you would be perfectly safe with a cheaper video card.

    buy it all at once..will save you some on shipping and i don't know about you but it would kill me knowing i had an awesome part in my closet i couldn't use. Also as they said if you buy the processor now and then other parts later the odds of the costs of some of those parts coming down greatly...
