I'm going to get
AMD FX-60
2GB Ram
148GB 10000RPM HD
250GB HD
ati x1900 xtx
This sytem will mainly be for gaming. It should be good for awhile right?
AMD 64 X2 is definitively a better deal!
No need for 10,000 RPM HD, you are NOT editing videos!
SATA II 7200 with 16 MB RAM is to good !!!
As far as for dual Video, it is just a marketing gimmick to suck fools out of the money, unless you do stock market and need 4 monitors or more.
