So...it's that time of the decade again...i'm building a brand spanking new computer...
just thought i'd let you guys know so you can be jealous and such...
oh and also to get your general opinions :P
CASE:
Thermaltake Soprano DX
MoBo:
EVGA 132-CK-NF79-A1 nVidia nForce 790i Ultra Chipset
CPU:
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6700
Video:
EVGA GeForce 9800 GTX 512MB GDDR3
RAM:
4GB OCZ Dual Channel PC10600 DDR3 (4 x 1024MB)
Sound: Sound Blaster Audigy 2 ZS*
HDD: 1x 200GB Seagate Barracuda 7200 SATA*
1x 400GB Seagate Barracuda 7200 SATA*
1x 40GB Samsung 7200 IDE*
Optical Drives: NEC ND-3550A DVDħR DL Drive*
NEC NR-7500A CDħR Drive*
*Note: Parts i already have in my current computer which i'm probably going to transfer to the new one...maybe not the 40GB HDD and the CDRom drive.
I think i got everything...let me know what you guys think...none of the components are purchased yet, so nothing is final...my price range is about $300/part...and so far it looks pretty good.
The case, CPU and Mobo i'm getting from
www.canadacomputers.com
and the Ram and Video card i'm getting from
www.tigerdirect.ca
let me know if you guys can find any better deals, or if i should change up some of the parts or something.
PS: in case you're wondering...i've been inspired to build one by a couple of things...A) fallout 3 coming out in Q3. and B) Crysis...
