    Question about my Q6600 build

    To be honest, I'm a newb to OCing. I'm up for the challenge, but at the same time I probably won't try anything crazy. However, I am researching OCing and I'm thinking the GO stepping would be beneficial for the future if I really did need to push the chip hard (I hope to keep the it for about...

    Question about my Q6600 build

    I am building Q6600 rig, but I think I want to hold out for the GO stepping. All the other components in my build will be arriving within the week, and I need to have this desktop built for grad school which I will be starting on August 20. Given that it is the 775 chipset, I am contemplating...

    So we got the eVga's GTX for $490 @ clubit.com after rebate http://www.clubit.com/product_detail.cfm?itemno=A9602827 OR The MSI GTX OC is @ newegg for $480 (with Company of Heroes) http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127281 Is it worth spending the $10 extra for eVga's...

    So yeah I'm gonna try to squeeze the GTX. We'll see. Any other reservations or suggestions? Should I just get SATA optical drives, or keep my IDEs around?

    Well I don't know that I'll be running dx10 for awhile. I am pretty happy with XP for now, and I'm guessing the new cards will be quite costly. As far as using my old card I currently have a four year old AGP, I believe it is an Ati 9600; that won't cut it.

    Tell me what you think. I am obviously waiting till the July 22 price drop. I already have a 19" LCD, Hitachi 250gb SATA, an Arctic Cooling Freezer 7 Pro, and 2x1gb Crucial Ballistix 1066. I also have optical drives; however, they are IDE. Would you recommend scraping them and going with...

    Buying a 8800 GTS. Should I jump on this deal?

    The BFG GeForce 8800 GTS OC 320MB is at Best Buy for $270 and its 640MB cousin for $350. First, I'm curious if anyone knows if there are any significant performance gains seen by the overclocked models. Second, considering the price difference of $80, is it worth spending the difference for...

    Spring for memory before the board? (Decision needed today!)
