Hello,
I'm getting ready to hit the order button, for a new computer, and decided I had better ask a couple questions before I make it final. I want a ATI Radeon X1900XT video card. I have an epox SLI motherboard picked out and was wondering if there is a better motherboard choice since I won't be using SLI?
Also, would I be better to get the WD Raptor 150GB or get the WD 350GB 3GB/s drive?
Here is what I'm ordering...
AMD Athlon 64 X2 4600+ Windsor 2000MHz HT Socket AM2 Dual Core Processor Model ADA4600CUBOX - Retail
connect3D 3056 Radeon X1900XT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 Video Card

Any comments or recommendations would be appreciated as I'm not real current on the high end PC market.
Thank you,
Ray
