A Big Thankyou

[voodooflux]

Just wanted to say a big "thanks" to all those who took the time to offer me advice (and generally answer my dumb questions) in my "quest-for-a-new-rig" since just before Christmas. After around 3 months worth of "research" I'm now the very proud owner of a system based around:

• Opteron 175
• Asus A8N-SLi Premium nForce4
• G.Skill 2GB DDR ZX PC3200
• OcUK 7800GT
• Samsung SpinPoint 80GB SATA II
• Samsung SpinPoint 250GB SATA II
• Lian-Li PC-7 PLUS

I also managed to salvage something from my sons Dell Dimension 3000 with your help, and he now regularly kicks my backside on most games from his P4 3.0Ghz Northfield running on an Asus P4GPL-X board in an Antec Sonata II with a Powercolor X850XT. It almost bought a tear to my eye when he endured his first "frag". Bless.

cheers
v.f.

Congrats dude!

I know what it's like picking a new/ first rig. And getting whooped in most games tbh.

I tried to get an Opty but no one had them in until January. (Wanted to order for my birthday in November.)

Glad you're happy with it, they're a helpful bunch here!
