Have fun building it!
I've never bought a PC in my life (except for an Amstrad PC1640 in the 80's), and have always built them. |

ahhh, so much fun.
I am tempted to do a upgrade as well, not as nice of an upgrade as you have though  |

Blueray?? Why Blueray when I have a PS3?
But nah, I'm not into high-def movies. Just playing Crysis at 1920x1080 (my TV) using my current system- X3330 (formerly E5200@3.33Ghz) with a 4870x2  |

Thats going to be fun to put together, I dont know what youre running now but i am sure it will be a nice step up for ya , I am holding out for a while to do any major upgrades until i cant game well any more with what i am running now. But that should be at least a year or so off so by that time ill probly not even be installing an I7 cpu heh heh heh Enjoy and post back with a review of youre components. _________________ "The only reason for time is so that everything doesn't happen at once."

I know I'd have more fun putting all the stuff together than playing the system itself. It may sound strange, but not having any problems with performance or anything else just doesn't seem so fun for me. Guess overcoming difficulties is my hobby
BTW, nice rig. Kinda seems silly to be stuck with a GF6800 in a laptop (anyone have any decent MXM cards for sale? ) _________________ Power without the price. |
