Thanks for stopping to view. I haven't built a PC in Four years and I came into some money and decided I should get a new PC for all my needs. I've been doing research and costs and such, coming up with a good idea of what I want. This will be an expensive purchase and need the forums help on some things. The only Pieces I have for a PC are a mouse and Keyboard. So here is the list:
Marked with * means unsure. I plan to watercool and overclock. The Most Worrisome for me is the videocard and motherboard. I do not know if the Video Industry will switch to SLI completly and don't want to have to change again so soon.
CASE: Lian Li PC V2100B (PC-V2100B) - 0275.50
PSU: OCZ 600W PSU (OCZ600ADJ) - 0205.00
*MOBO: DFI LANPARTY UT nF4 ( ) - 0155.00
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3200 (ADA3200DIK4BI) - 0194.00
MEM: PC3200 DDR400 (OCZ4001024ELDCPER2-K) - 0300.00
HD1: WD Raptor 74GB ( WD740GD) - 0180.00
HD2: Seagate 200GB NCQ (ST3200826AS) - 0134.50
AUDIO: Creative Audigy 2 ZS (30SB035000000) - 0070.00
*VIDEO: ?? (??) - 0400.00
FLOPPY: Mitsumi Digital Card/FD (FA404A/404M BLK) - 0040.00
DVD-ROM: Lite On 167T (SOHD-167T) - 0030.00
DVD+-RW: BenQ DW1620A (DW1620-0C2) - 0075.00
MONTR: HP L2335 (P9615A#ABA) - 1423.00
TOTAL: 3481.50
The case and psu are BTX comliant for future proofing. The Monitor has Analog, DVI, Stardard Inputs with PIP so I wont have to get rid of it soon. Any HD's will not have to be replaced, neither will the Sound unless a major shift in Digital Audio. The Floppy reads Multiple Flash Media as well as 1.44MB FD's. The BenQ is DVD-9 Burnable, I worry about Blu-ray, HD-DVD and HDVD (Holographic).
Water Cooling is really quite confusing but I believe I want to use a T-Line Symmetric Cooling for GPU, CPU and Chipset. Any help with thoughts on that situation would be appreciated.
Anything to reduce costs as well. I will be modding it with a full plexi-glass side panel, modular mod on the psu, maybe a set of good DTS headphones...
Additions, subtractions, thoughts and angry outcrys for me having so much money to spend are all welcome.
Thank you again.
