Ok this is what I am currently running...
Thermaltake Black Highest Xaser III Super Tower
ABIT "AV8" K8T800 Pro Chipset Motherboard for AMD Socket 939 CPU - Retail
EVGA nVIDIA GeForce 6800 GT Video Card 256MB GDDR3, 256-Bit, TV-Out/DVI, 8X AGP,
Antec 550 Watt Power Supply With 2 Fans 5.25 Control Panel, Model "TRUE CONTROL 550W"
AMD Athlon 64 3500+, 512K, L2 Cache, Socket 939 Windows Compatible 64-bit Processor
Corsair XMS Extreme Memory Speed Series, (Twin Pack) 184 Pin 1GB(512MBx2) DDR PC-3200
Western Digital 80GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive, Model WD800JD, OEM Drive Only
Western Digital 160GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive, Model WD1600JD, OEM Drive Only
Sony Internal 16X DVD+R / Double Layer/DVD+RW Drive, Model DRU710A, Retail
ZALMAN CNPS7000B-Cu Copper CPU Cooler for Socket 478/462/754/939/940 CPUs -RETAIL
I have had this system for almost a year. At first I was running WOW and Counter Strike at a blister 1900x1200 and everything was so damn smooth and fast. Now it seems that my performance has just gone to hell. I have questioned getting it checked out since I have been screwed over before. I have been looking into some of the new boards and the new 7800 video card. Should I pay to get that system checked out, or just go ahead and replace the MB, Proc and vid card??? If I change to a PCI-E Board I can add another card down the road and what not. Plus the board I have now seems to be pretty buggy.
