    You don't have a power supply. You can get a few things cheaper through mwave.com

    Ewww Case PSU's are cheap, have a small amount of connectors and are pretty unstable and unreliable. You can get good, cheap and reliable ones for around $50

    Good luck building your own computer! Maybe you can sell when you build more copies of it.

    http://secure.newegg.com/NewVersion/wishlist/PublicWishDetail.asp?WishListNumber=8022728

    Here this is the best you can get. Trust me, thsis is much better then what you currently have now. With this build, you can play Call of duty 4 on high, you can max bioshock, half life, css, RUNESCAPE LOL, portal. Overall you can max out every Dx 9 game. The only flaw is the earthwatts is out of stock, hopefully you see this post before you order. Most games dont even support that shit. If you have any questions contact me.

    If you don't want the x1950 because it is an ATI chipset and you like Nvidia. Get the foxconn 7900gs, don't get any other 7900gs only the foxconn.

    That looks nice! All through Newegg?
    The Dual Video cards in SLI will be real nice.

    Do you have a System_Fan though (120mm)?

    Well, I kinda have a dilemma. My mom says that I can either spend that 500 bucks on a computer now, or I can wait a couple of months and spend around 3 grand on a computer. (Yes I know o.o), anyway I don't know what to do, my computer as of right now is 128mb of ram, 900mhz processor, and some old graphics card that has like 12mb of memory. Now, I would have the 500 dollars in cash if I decided to wait, and vice versa. So, I could use some suggestions. :S

    Wait and get one 6X better (3000/500=6).

    When you have 3,000 dollars your options change drastically.

    Please leave sythe.org, if not now. Tomorrow. I hate your stupid back seat modding. Who cares if he is spamming. Let a mod deal with it. Your not a mod. So leave it. Just report it if you wanna help the community.



    Why are you building your own PC ? :S Why not buy a new one from a shop. Its much easyer and everything is already there. If you still persist. Get a nVidea gfx card they own !!! :p
    If your serious about gaming why not get a console. Since they were built for.. well... gaming. :p
    Xbox 360 pwns PS3

    rofl. Just wait dude... Why not get a games console AND a hi-spec PC ? I would wait, the wait will be worth it. You can still get on sythe.org so what you complaining about ? :O
