Seeing as Cysis will be coming out in June of 2007 I am looking to upgrade my computer a little. Right now I have a P4 3.2GHZ with HT and 1.5 Gb of 557 ram. Nividia 6800 video card (the good one thats still $150) and 300 GB.


I want to get a new motherboard and CPU but the dell XPS powersupply has a 24 prong connecter and normal is 20. I plugged it in to an old pc I had that only had 20 slots and it fit fine, just 2 cords didn't go in. So I don't know if it would work right with a new Motherboard?

I wanted to get the

and the

the motherboard is great for overcloking. I was also going to get liquid cooling to keep it cool during overclocking.

I need some feedback and I was thinking to just wait till it gets closer to the day it comes out becasue the prices could go down and new stuff may come out.

get a 965p-s3 or asus p5b, they overclock just as good if not better

and buy it from http://directcanada.com :D much cheaper

ther core2 is 205$ on there

over 300$ is free shipping, and u only pay 6% tax if u live outside BC
