4 processors or two dual core sound nice

[omg its nlm]

wow nice setup you will have

[madmatt]

Perris, wouldn't that be nice.
NLM, thank you.

I forgot all about RAM.

[Mastershakes]

2 gigs of lightning should do.


It's Friday !!!!!

[muzikool]

Come into some cash recently?

[ShepsCrook]

That's quite the upgrade list. Nice setup list though.

[madmatt]

Muz, I just finished a big project and I was paid nicely for it.

I know what processor I want, but I don't know what motherboard, PSU, and RAM I want. And after dropping money on new hard drives yesterday I have to wait.

I can't believe you got two of those 150 GB's, nice dude. Did you get the drives with the Windows, or save the 30 bucks per and get without?

[madmatt]

I didn't get the "Raptor X". I bought the regular version. I don't plan on buying a case with a window.

If you ever even suggest doing that, well I don't know what I'll do.

I'm kidding. That'd be kinda cool.

[Sazar]

Matt, why stick with intel on the new system?

Consider going X2 or other. Have one of each

The 950 is decent, but I am spoiled by on-die mem controllers

My home system is so much smoother than my opti at work.

Intel is good too. I use them both. Work is Intel, home is Intel, and an AMD (cost effective)

I don't know what you would do either, but it would be damn sweet to look at. Probably only worth it if your case itself had a side panel with some cool LED sh*t inside though

I assume you meant hard drive, not case

[kcnychief]

Heck, why not just get 1,000 Processors

WOW.

[madmatt]

D, I didn't buy the Raptor with the window, and I don't plan on buying RAM with LED's because I am not going to buy a case with a window that will show the internals. To be honest, I like the style of the XPS 400 case and will likely look for something similar.

Saz, when that time comes I will be sure to bug you for help.

[kcnychief]

Good call. As I said, those devices are pointless without a side-panel case to get the viewing pleasure though it

I demand you get the Coolermaster Stacker 830

I think EP has had a similar case before, however I have not. I have only admired them from afar
