Okay, so i've had a good read of the various guides on the forum and have made a system!..at least on paper. I'n thinking of ordering any parts on the weekend and was hoping some of you guys could take a look through my specs and tell me if there's any glaring problems with the system.
So here goes,
Abit AW9D Intel 975X (Socket 775) PCI-Express DDR2 Motherboard
Intel Core 2 DUO E6600 "LGA775 Conroe" 2.40GHz (1066FSB)
GeIL 2GB (2x1GB) PC6400C5 800MHz Value DDR2 Dual Channel Kit
OCZ GameXStream 600w Silent SLI Ready ATX2 Power Supply
ATI Radeon X1950 XT-X ***Crossfire/Master Edition*** SILENT Heatpipe 512MB GDDR4
Hitachi Deskstar 7K160 NCQ 80GB SATA-II 8MB Cache
Now that's all I have at the moment, I think i'll be going for vista premium and a 19" monitor of some kind (8ms response etc...) but was wondering if I should go for widescreen or not.. Also should I go for some 1066mhz ram? This would match my cpu but I wasn't sure if that mattered.
So, any ideas? I would be gratefull for any help you can give me.
Thanks!!
