Hi,
I'm looking to build a new gaming computer.I want to be able to play games like Flight Sim X and Crysis on full settings I need a monitor but I already have a hard drive.
My max is $1800 .
Thanks
View Sonic has great monitors they can be a little pricey sometimes. I would defiantly go with a Gforce video card for flight simulator. 2 gigs of ram if you are running xp and 3 if you are going to run vista which I don't recommend.
Q9450 or E8400 (With TRUE heatsink and mx-2 paste)
Gigabyte DQ6 X48 (Or ASUS maximus extreme/formula X38)
8800 Ultra super clocked
4 GB Crucial ballistix tracers DDR2 800
PC Power and cooling 610 Silencer or Corsair 650TX
Audigy 2 ZS or Audigy 4.
Hard drive optical drive case moniter pretty much your choice.
Also heister, Im not talking about upgrading my current build...
What do you mean the raptor is pointless now?
Also ste reccomended 8800Ultra so what do you mean when you say step up to the alpha dogxxx ?

what i meant is copy the build you have now and change a few things.. also the raptor is pointless now because there are drives out that have such a high cache that almost makes up the drive speed difference also they are a much better price to size value
