It was suggested that I move this thread here so here goes. I am looking at building a new rig in the near future. I pretty much have most of the components picked out. But could use some advice with some of the others.
Current list:
AMD Athlon 64 3200+ Venice
DFI Lanparty UT NF4 Ultra-D
OCZ Value VX (1Gb)
x800xl or 6800gt, suggestions on brand and which card are welcome.
Now I need a case and a powersupply. This will primarily be used for gaming and occasional multimedia with roommates big screen tv and will have overclocking in its future but am going to run stock for the first month at least. Let me know if i am leaving anything out.
Current components that will stay:
Keyboard: Dell Logitech Wireless, Saitek Eclipse
Mouse: Dell Logitech Wireless, thinking about another so i can leave the wireless for the tv.
Mousepad: Radioshack wrist cushioned mousepad
Receiver: Harman Kardon AVR 120
TV: Roommate's 57" widescreen mitsubishi HDTV
Speakers: 6.1 JBL can't remember the product name
Hard drives: 120 gig WD caviar, 120 gig Maxtor 7200 rpm
DVD burner, CD rom drive
Oh yeah and someone that knows, given my multimedia setup, would I do better to get a soundcard or leave it at onboard. I'm looking at audigy 2 zs, zs gamer, and zs plat.
Thx in advance
