I need help building a fast computer.

Nah, q6600 sucks now..

Its Quad and all, but recent crappy batches make it an OC'ing nightmare, plus Games do better with high clocks over more Cores... that'll change soon, but I'd get a e8400/e8500 instead... (those can go to around 4.0ghz easily!)

and yes the X-Cruiser will be fine..

lol, you actually like that Apevia case, I think those are kinda ugly.. CM is awesome, so is NZXT.

 

[advancedgeek]

maybe get a gtx 260 core 216 its a bit cheaper and it comes with a free game called far cry 2

Not on a cfx board.....

Hey will I be able to play games that will be on my 500 GB(250GBx2 RAID0) and listen to music that will be on my 640 GB Hard Drive at the same time?

BTW now I cant decide If I should get this Newegg.com - RAIDMAX SMILODON Extreme Black ATX-612WEB 1.0mm SECC Steel ATX Mid Tower Foldout MB Computer Case - Computer Cases or the aprevia because Im digging the idea of clicklock technology.

 

[philbar71]

yes you can play games while listening to music. lol i do it all the time.

 

[orion233]

no but the music is going to be on another hardrive then my games

What I mean is can I access music on my 640 GB Hard Drive while playing games on my 500 (250x2 RAID0 Drives)

 

[1337_JohnN]

Can you load song from a external HDD, while playing CS:S, on your internal HDD?

 

[orion233]

no i have two internal HDD running in RAID and another 640 GB HDD thats internal as well can i use them simultaneously? like play games one and listen to music on the other?

of course you can access 2 volumes at once... unless you somehow wanna do some mad mod to make all your HDDs use a single SATA port lol... and even then i think you could probably do it... it would just be unbelieveably slow!
