    $1500 build, rate/comment/suggest?

    Hmm.... should I get two 500GB HDDs or just stick to one 1TB?

    $1500 build, rate/comment/suggest?

    hmm.... it's within my budget so I'll think about it. I really, really have to be able to convince my dad though. Do you have any links on how to set up a RAID0?

    ok, it's switched in my cart. I'd better drop this and wait until October for me to get it. By that time I'll be asking which DX11 card to get... haha

    hmm, a ton of people told me it's better than an Xigmatek Dark Knight, oh well. I want to keep everything on NewEgg. *sigh, I guess I should switch back to Xigmatek. Also, I'm getting two 500GB HDDs in RAID instead of one 1TB HDD. Is this good? EDIT: fix'd version.

    $1500 build, rate/comment/suggest?

    Oh ok. Although I appreciate the OCZ PSU suggestion, I'm still sticking with a Corsair 750w PSU, so many people are satisfied with it, and 750w should be enough to power 2 CF'd cards. I stuck to a P6T, and the v2 is out unfortunately due to budget. The sound card may be taken out but I want to...

    Ok, thank you for clearing that up. :) I'll make the switches. EDIT: the foxconn bloodrage only has 3 memory slots :( Not a big fan of that.

    Ok, thanks for the suggestions. I'm just a little iffy on the Bloodrage; haved you worked with a P6T before? I'll see if I can get those Megahalems. Oh and Corsair is known for being able to run more than advertised or something like that, like a 650TX putting out more than 650w or something.

    CPU cooler: I was thinking about getting everything from NewEgg. I have considered buying from two sources; however, I am not going to madly OC. I'd love to get Megahalems or a TRUE but I can't, and that's the sad fact of the world. Yes, I am considering the Scythe Mugen-2. PSU: I've heard the...

    rimprove on this build

    I've heard good things about the Lian-Li PC-K62 and HAF cases, and you could get Windows 7 RC for free and cut that out of your budget. Otherwise, everything is fine.

    Hi CF, I posted here a while ago because a friend recommended me this site for PC building. I have been going to about 3-4 different sites asking for build help, and this is what I've got. Uses: video editing/watching uncompressed, gaming, home/office/school use If you could recommend...

    Is this a good build?

    Ehh, I don't care much about shipping cost, so I'll actually stick with the Antec Three Hundred case. I'm not too sure about that Cooler Master, I'd rather take the time to build a sturdy case with screws than have a flimsy plastic part break off and not be able to have it fixed. Screws > tool less.

    Is this a good build?

    Thank you bomberboysk. Only thing is that I'll need a DVI-HDMI adapter... :( Well, I could just run down to Worst Buy and grab a DVI-to-HDMI cord anyway.

    I'm going to be using this PC for (listed in order of importance and frequency): .Home and school use (Internet browsing, Word processing, maybe PowerPoint) .Beginning Video Editing (using AAE CS4, Vegas 8.0, GIMP) .Video capturing Halo 3 from the Xbox 360 (probably with external SD capturing in...

    Yeah, it's a good fan. Jeez, instead of making us find your current build, why not update your first post with the edit button?
