Looking for help on building a new computer. Ive all ready bought a case to start the project: Antec Nine Hundred Ultimate Gamer Case. I all ready know Im going to be putting in an intel cpu, need suggestions or facts about the different cpu types (ie. p4 / dual core / etc... [[need most information about this, Ive neglected to keep up on cpu information and Im lost in the sea of all the new names and types]]) and mobo ideas. I definitly want to go with PCI-Express. As far as a graphics is concerned I was thinking about the ATI X1950XT 512MB or the nVidia EVGA 8800 GTX 768MB, Ive heard that the EVGA card is worth the extra cash it costs. For sound Im thinking about sticking with some sort of Soundblaster set up, their products have been good to me for a while now BUT if there is some sort of card that is ultra awsome sound Id love to hear about it (Ive never really looked into sound cards before). Onto memory (which I also realized Ive fallen behind on after checking out www.outpost.com and seeing something along the lines of DDR2 800). Info about the new types of memory would be great. Also maybe a gigalan card although the one that is integrated into my MoBo in my current computer has been awsome and gets me a connection a little bit above T1 so I wouldnt be turned off to having the LAN integrated into the MoBo on this build as well. Any other ideas or criticism would be much appreciated.
Final Hardware:
- Case: Antec Nine Hundred Ultimate Gamer
