Well, I've been thinking of building a good lasting Gaming Computer to replace my very old P4 AGP Computer. My old computer is a:
Intel Pentium 4 ~ 3Ghz
Memory~ 2x 512MB ULTRA DDR PC3200 400MHz
Video Card~ AGP GeForce 6600 256MB (regular one)
Storage~ ATA something 200GB (old gray cable)
For the new one I was thinking
CASE~CM Stacker 830 ATX Full 320$
or
CASE~ Mozart TX Cube 300$
MOBO~ EVGA nForce 680i SLI 330$
CPU~ Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.40ghz 320$
RAM~ OCZ Dual Channel 2048MB 200$
HDRIVE~Seagate 500GB 7200 130$
PSUPPLY~ 700-Watt ATX 180$
That's around 1500$ tehn about the video Cards, I was thinking of the new EVGA 8800 ULTRA SLI GeForce but then I dont have another 1500$ to spend on vid so basicly I'll probably buy a temporary one for the moment.
I love the Mozart Case but the CM Stacker 830 seems to have a better air flow... but the Mozart version I want is the gray one with glassless windows which I can find anywhere(Canada Here, TigerDirect.ca & NCIX.com)
+ I don't like the CM830's Front Panel, I don't like front panels for some odd reason.
What do you guys think? Good Gaming PC? Tips and Ideas is what I'm after
