My current system is no slow-poke, but it lacks DX10 Hardware, and who doesnt want to play Crysis?!?! or Alan Wake in full dx10 goodness, I have (atm) an ;
Intel Core2 @ 3ghz (Conroe 4mb) Cooled by an AC7 Pro 55*c load
Asus P5W DH Deluxe (i wanna keep this board)
4x1 GB Corsair XMS2 C4 DDR2-800
Dual X1900Xt's 512
Creative X-Fi 64mb
I wanna change the ram, gfx and water cool the cpu to crank it up some more MHZ and have nicer temps, this is what i was thinking.
OCZ 2GB PC2-9200 1150MHz Reaper HPC x 2
OcUK ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT SILENT Heatpipe 1024MB GDDR4 x 2 - (crossfire - how bad is the bottleneck with two 8x pci-e lanes, and what crossfire boards are dual 16x??)
Western Digital Raptor X 150GB x2 for raid 0 to be my windows+games drive,
Dell Ultrasharp 2407WFP 24" - For 1900x1200 goodness
Then finaly the case, id wouldnt mind ;
Thermaltake VD4000SWA Kandalf - since it has built in Watercooling, its simple. This will be the first time ive WC before. Ive seen the comments and people clam 24*c load for a E6600 (my cpu) at stock.
If its crap or theres better case/waterblock/pump/pipes/rad for around £200 please tell
and btw my xms2 is crap is doesnt OC at all, no matter how many volts or relaxed timings i give it, it cant do more than ddr875.... thats why i want some faster ram for oc headroom @ 1:1
Thanks in advance
