Greetings!
I was doing some research on RAM for a partial build when I stumbled upon this web site, I read a lot of the threads that have been created and I saw that the community is quite helpful and extreamly knowledgable so I thought I would register and ask for you guys to pick apart my new build.
My MOBO just recently died (the last build I did for myself was in 2004 but I have done quite a few for my friends). I haven't been keeping up with hardware as my PC didn't need them but alas it is time to build a new.
Many great games are coming out soon and I guess this is also an excuse to beef up my system (or build a new one).
I will be keeping my current HD's (they are both Seagates one is 500 G and the other is 1 TB both are 7200 RPM one is SATA the other is 3.5). I've recently purchased a sound card (creative's XI-FI).
Essentially what I am looking to do is replace the MOBO but since my old video card is AGP I need to get a new one since almost no MOBO's have AGP anymore and obviously I need to get new RAM and a new CPU.
I have no idea what kind of video card to get. I'm looking for something that will have no problem with high def videos (1080p, bluray, ect...) and that will last me the next few years.
This is what I have put together so far, please be as straight forward as you need to be.
