out of:

3.0 ghz Penty 4 530J
2gb CORSAIR VALUE ram
6600gt -> soon upgrading to X1800XL/XT (most likey xl because im skint!

)
running on an Asus P5ND2-SLI

i jrecently got a thermaltake 430W PSU will it be ok with an x1800 in it? it has a PCI-e connector, but.. yeah

For gaming wise, the the 6600gt

NeptuneUK · 28 Mar 2006 at 11:27

yeh i noticed! thats why im upgrading that, how about after the 1800 is put in?

I think you will have a very balanced system with a X1800

OCed to 3.6?

yeah that pentium is screaming to be overclocked :cool:

, if you get it to 3.5 or high any bottle neck created by an 1800xl/xt ( I doubt there will be anyway) will be eliminated, and you may aswell get more than you pay for if you know what i mean :cool:
