Hi I'm a noob to the forum
I've built my last 2 pc's from newegg and from my experience I won't buy from anywhere else.
Anyways, here's my build. I want to know if the 4850 will be absolute overkill for my 1024x768 projector (which may be upgraded soon, but if I do the projector would only be 1280x720) in which case I'd buy the new 4650 or whatever it is when it comes out. The onboard video on the 780g series is somewhat decent from what I've heard.
Also any recommendations would be nice
x2 5000+ black edition $82 ($62 after rebate)
Thermaltake SopranoRS free x2 5000+ combo
Scythe SCKTN-2000 100mm Sleeve "Katana 2" $25
powercolor radeon 4850 $195 ($170 after rebate)
SUPER TALENT 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 800 $75 ($60 after rebate)
GIGABYTE GA-MA78G-DS3H $90
SILVERSTONE SST-ST60F 600W ATX Modular $90
Western Digital 640GB sata $95
Sony 20x dvd-r sata $23
total is $677 before rebates. i'd like to spend as little as possible while getting the best bang and most performance for the buck.
BTW, does anyone know when the new midrange ati cards are coming out? and if so will they be a new design or just rehashed hd3600 or 3800's?
