Hello all.
After a couple of years at university spending very little time reading about / buying PC components, I am coming to the end of my degree. The prospect of having income from a job (hurrah!) is spurning me to revive my interest in upgrading my PC, and, let's face it, playing brand spanking new games at high end settings with no worry.
My interest waned just as the X1900xt and 6800GTX (SLi) were beginning to see their replacements, and when we were all getting super excited about Conroe. Anyway, the point of this post (hopefully the first of plenty) is to ask if anyone can give me a brief update on where things have gone since then, or point me towards some good articles? I know I could just go and read the last 2 years worth of TomsHardware articles, and likely will to some extent, but I have always preferred forum opinions / content to articles, which tend to be a bit nichey.
Thanks for any comments in advance.
All the best.
