Hey guys. One more question and Im ready to make my purchase. I am looking to buy a WiFi night vision CCVT camera to watch my driveway. $37k truck and a $12k motorcycle with a crazy ex gf who got back with her ex husband and guess what? He knows where I live now. So is there anything I need in...
That we are lucky to have that section. I have, over the past 10 years, found alot of great deals on online message boards. Mainly when I am upgrading my stereo in my truck. It helps alot of us DIY people
What if I can prove my reputation?
What if I can prove my reputation so I can post in the FS/WTB section? I have been out of the computer building thing for about 10 years now. My computer took a crap on me and I am looking at building a nice rig to last me another 10 years, BUT IM ON A BUDGET...
I already have a DVD Burner along with a CD RW 52x.
I will be overclocking my card, cpu, and memory so that is one reason why I picked the Crosshair IV.
Im not going to skimp on my PSU, but I found a great deal on a nice one that was recommended to me.
So I just priced everything and I am a bit over my budget. Here is what I compiled
AMD Phenom X6 1055T: $190 from ewiz.com
Crosshair IV Formula: $225 from amazon.com @ buy.com
Sapphire Toxic: $349 from Ewiz
Bgears BG01183 b-Tarantula 550W SLI/CrossFire: $39.99 (w/ $10 mail in rebate)...
Hey, thanks for all of that! Definately keeping my budget in mind. I am looking for a case that has some Plexi on the side to show my sexy set up, but those towers are nice. I really like the black painted internal casing of these towers. Plus the power supply on the bottom is something I have...
I actually just did that. Premium and Pro will allow me to run XP software which is something I will need.
I am actually looking at taking some Supervisor and Manager classes in June. Thanks for the idea
Regarding my HDD setup. I picked the Western Digital SATA 6Gb/sec 1TB Caviar Black ($104.99) but then found the SAMSUNG Spinpoint F3 HD103SJ 1TB 7200 RPM 32MB Cache.
I was given advice in this thread to find a lower storage HDD for running my windows. So hear is my other question. Should I get...
Dang... Are all prices for Windows 7 the same or are there cheaper places to buy? Maybe a combo of Windows 7 with any of the components I am building my system you have came across?
After doing further research, it looks like Ill need to upgrade my Windows from XP to Windows 7 to get full potential of my setup, is this correct fellas?
Ok, so I am going to take ya'lls advice and go with the 5850 and drop the CPU Cooler. Would the Rosewill RCX-Z300 92mm Ball CPU Cooler be better than the stock CPU Cooler for $14.99? Rosewill RCX-Z300 92mm Ball CPU Cooler
Now which one? I really like the Saphire 5850. The cheapest I have found...
Sounds like a good plan. I will take your advice on that.
Here's the deal. I am borrowing my mother's credit card to do all of this. No, Im not spoiled or anything cause I have to pay her back by July. I just have to give my friends desktop back to him next week, but I need to continue looking...
Also, I forgot to ask. I know the Crosshair IV has onboard video. How good is this onboard video? Would it be worth the cost savings to go with their onboard video until I can get enough funds for a better Graphics Card?
Lastly, I have ready a little bit on the Crossfire technology which is to...
Should I get two 500 gigs Western Digital SATA III instead of the one 1TB Western Digital SATA III?
I have two of ATA drives laying around from my old set up. 80gb, 160gb, both are 7200rpm. Should I use that in my set up?
