Suggestion on a new custom pc?

abcd123 · Mar 11, 2008

i was thinking of getting a new desktop and was quoted $1400 from cyberpowerpc.com. Here's the specs:

Mid Tower Casing
750W Thermaltake Toughpower
(Quad-Core) Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
CoolerMaster Liquid CPU Cooling System
ASUS P5N32-E nforce 680i SLI chipset LGA775 FSB1333 DDR2 Mainboard
4GB (2x2) of RAM
1x NVIDIA Geforce 8600GT

i was thinking of upgrading the graphic card to maybe to 2x NVIDIA 9 series when a better one is out. So what do you guys think? any suggestions? if possible i don't want to spend any more than this, but if you guys have good suggestion that the extra money if worth spending, i might consider about it

Motherboard: 780i chipset if you SLi
Asus P5N-T Deluxe

RAM: Now RAM so cheap. $120 is enough for 2 x 2GB. Cyberpower charge for $400!?

Video Card: 8800GT

This is what i have after some changes:

Sagitta II Mid-Tower 420W Gaming Case
750W Thermaltake Toughpower
(Quad-Core) Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600
CoolerMaster Liquid CPU Cooling System
Asus P5N-T Deluxe nForce 780i SLI Mainboard FSB1333 DDR2
1GB (512x2) of RAM (will be upgraded separately to 4GB)
1x NVIDIA Geforce 8600GT (will be upgraded to a 9000 series, waiting for a better one to come out)

and i was quoted for $1247 now.

1) The 9 series aren't that good yet. Stick with the 8800GTS G92s and 8800GTs and HD38*0 series.

RedDevil6 - He could do MUCH better with $1400.

That would be more than enough.
