Hi guys/girls!! APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Soon BUDGET RANGE: <400 CAD USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: watching movies, playing games (probably the next battlefield if possible with existing computer), emails, surfing net etc. CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: ATI radeon 4870x2 hd AND...

secondary question: are there any suppliers like xoticpc in canada where I can modify a G73w to have an SSD and an upgraded processor?

1. What is your budget? $1600 (canadian) max before tax 2. What is the size of the notebook that you are considering? 16-17" 3. What screen resolution do you want? 1920x1080 4. Do you need a portable or desktop replacement laptop? Mostly the latter 5. How much battery life do you need...

awesome, thanks guys. I will add a heatsink because I am worried about it overheating.... and I do need that much space... the RAID means that really I have only 500gigs for business (mirrored right?)... and I want to separate pleasure and pain you know... and I don't typically delete...

APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: Will be ordering within 30 days BUDGET RANGE: ~2600$ CAN SYSTEM USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Business applications, accounting software, gaming, movies, porn lol. PARTS NOT REQUIRED: mouse--have the G9 Laser, keyboard, have a 24"BenQ (1920*1080), speakers...

i just did the monitor purchase 6 months ago... ended up with a BenQ 24" and it's great. and 24" is pretty huge.

*** i love this site why is everybody so awesome here?

yes this helped very much yoosty. I've put in the 920 i7. thanks for the HD suggestions. I think then I'll go with the WD RE3 500s in RAID and use the caviar black for my non business drive. I likely will go with the heatsink as you've suggested.... my comp runs in a pretty hot place in my...

this comp needs to do both business and games (preferably something that will last for a few years--Fallout 3 + FPSs) business will be mostly word documents spreadsheets and accounting software... nothing too intensive, however I need the RAID for backup--and the UPS just in case. budget is...

hmmm which motherboard would you suggest then...

new possible computer: Processor (CPU) Intel Core 2 Quad Q9550 Quad Core Processor LGA775 2.83GHZ Yorkfield 1333FSB 12MB Retail Box (BX80569Q9550) (sku: 30576) In Stock $299.16 Motherboard ASUS P6T X58 ATX LGA1366 DDR3 3PCI-E16 PCI-E1 2PCI CrossFire SLI SATA2 GBLAN Motherboard (P6T)...

Yes you're right about the caviar black. I think the D0 is the way to go. (might as well right!) thanks again! does it make sense to run a third hard drive (not raid) for non-business related content... or is that going to slow everything down?

wow, thanks dude. I was just going to post this: Processor: Intel Core i7 920 Nehalem 2.66GHz 4 x 256KB L2 Cache 8MB L3 Cache LGA 1366 130W Quad-Core Processor Hard drives (2 in RAID 1): Western Digital Caviar Green WD10EADS 1TB 32MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s 3.5" Internal Hard Drive RAM: CORSAIR...

oh i see. I wasn't really sure what to tell everyone! I'll post a potential build soon.
