im getting the ultra as im not waiting for the 9800's to come out, and im going with a lower end cpu. im taking the 4800+x2 because i wana get a phenom later on, but at teh same time save money.

these prices are canadian as im in canada, if would liek an xclio a380 case if it where possible to find one on a canadian site. il be selling my old rig for 800 canadia. with os.
 
It would play Crysis well I imagine but the slower CPU is going to hurt you. I suggest downgrading the Ultra to a standard GTX and upgrading to a Quad-Core CPU. Then overclock your GTX to stock Ultra speeds.

The OCZ GameXstream is ok but there are better PSU's as it suffers from heavy ripple.
 
i would recommend the corsair 620 hx for PSU, as its plenty and more stable and efficiant, not to mention modular
also i would go with higher quality RAM, such as crucial ballistix, patriot Extreme performance, or gskill HZ (if you can find them cheap)
also whats wrong with your current case? its a nice one
downgrade to a GTX...you'll still be able to run it on max with the high-end proc your saving for
and since your getting a new motherboard JUST for phenoms, think about it, no benchmarks or anything and they only have middle-end to low -end out right now :/
i would go with an intel motherboard...as they probably are going to stay on top

RIPPLE... get the PC Power and Cooling 610 Silencer.. directly from their site.... it'll be back to its price at 129$ shipped... because they'll restock on the 21st...
 
i want a full tower lol, i cant go quad core cause i want a phenom later on so i went with a cheaper cpu, i could go even cheaper, i like the ultra tho as it does give a performence increase over the 8800gtx, and quite significantly in some games, anyway, i kno the cpu would slo me down but its only for a month or two, and im not ocing so no point in gettin beter ram. i was wondering if i should downgrade on the cpu even.

i got the corsair psu. its cheaper to.
 
if your not overclocking...then i guess the phenom is for you...
going with the GTX and using that money you saved on a higher end phenom would be ideal

ok... i just noticed that was an 8800ultra.. that explains the high price..

but why not overclock a Phenom??
 
i dont wana spend extra on good ram , well i might get some hz's or some crucial when the phenom comes out. i could drop the ultra get a 8800gtx, and get better ram, then when the phenom comes out pick up a another 8800gtx for sli. i want this rig to last me a while like this one did, it lasted me about a year and a half.
 
$1000?!?!?!
you could get a core 2 extreme, which would dominate a phenom
but would cost alot more
but you have a very high budget
