THIS POST WILL BE UPDATED WITH RESULTS
Alrighty, here's what I pulled the trigger on....
GIGABYTE GA-MA78GM-S2H
AMD Phenom 9600BE
CORSAIR DOMINATOR 4GB DDR2 1066(2 x 2GB)
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 3450 512MB
SILVERSTONE SST-ST56ZF 560W
Thermaltake Big Typhoon
Should be in Monday or Tuesday
This is for a friend, though I will of course be putting it together and benching the hell out of it
Any suggestions or helpful tips/tricks would be appreciated.
If you stick with this thread long enough, I plan to hook it up to phase. He has the same VapoLi setup as myself.
There are many reviews like this setup out right now, but I shall point out the differences:
1. Phenom 9600BE as opposed to the brisbane in the reviews.
2. 512mb 3450 as opposed to the 256mb in the reviews.
3. 4gigs of DDR2 1066 as opposed to 2gigs of DDR2 800 in the reviews.
The reviews tested the IGP, IGP OC'd, discreet vid card, and IGP + discreet in hybrid xfire. I plan to do IGP OC'd + discreet OC'd in hybrid xfire as well. I will of course also be testing the overclocking of cpu and ram also.
