Hi, im stuck on what to do. Atm, i have got a 22" (t220) as primary, and a 17inch hp monitor for a second monitor to mess around with. As christmas is coming up, i can eaither ditch the 17inch hp monitor, put my t220 to replace the 17inch monitor and get the 22" e-ips monitor from dell, so 22"x2.
Or, leave the monitor setup the way it is now and get 2 64gb ssd's in raid 0.
Ill be picking up my 5870 on the 20th. so im stuck on what to do, any help?

My specs:
q6600 @ 3ghz (i might get more out of it)
4gb ddr2 1066mhz corsair dominator
8800gt (getting 5870)
500gb hard drive

Thanks

Seeing as you're got a 5870 on the way then buy 2nd screen or buy a nice 24"

 

[BigRazer93]

i dno ive had a look at the 24" screens and i want 2 try the ips panel, and i think 1680 is great for gaming

 

[-VK-]

I'd go with the screens....you have to look at them every day

 

[Richy1204]

Either way 2x 22" screens will be great for gaming on.

Im waiting for a price drop on SSD's before i buy them

 

[BigRazer93]

yeah true, i wouldnt mind a ssd tho, i could always get 1 64gb version for now cldnt i

 

[Richy1204]

true you could just buy one.

How much are you looking to spend ?

 

[BigRazer93]

ermm well, i think my mum and dad are going 2 let me spend about £450 for things 4 my pc, atm, its going to come around £400 for the screen, the sound card and the head set.
im getting a head set £75, soundcard £80 and the screen which is £210.
Ive had a look at the ssd's, ive seen the crucial for £115 64gb thats the best 1 i have seen for the price up 2 now

 

[Richy1204]

yea from what i've read around here the guys say the crucial is the one to get (64Gb) and the price isn't too bad.

 

[BigRazer93]

yeah, ive also had a look on another website that has the samsing 64gb and its instock, same read and write as the crucial just £11 dearer
