New Lan Party Rig
Finally im going to make a major upgrade, got sick! of my old Althlon xp 2500. This computer will be mainly use for intense gaming, movies, and lan party tournaments. Im having trouble choosing between Creative xfi sound card or Asus xonar, what you guys recommend. I might wait for Nvidia 9800x2, if prices are to high, then ill go for 8800gt sli. I already have NEC 22'' crt monitor, and Logitech 5.1 505wat speakers, water cooler, Win xp pro and vista home premium x64 (will set to dual boot) and im making my own gaming case. Will over clock cpu hopefully minimum 4.3 to highest 5.0. Will start ordering on saturday, here are specs, what you guys think.
