Awsome! Get the RAM with the normal case, there's no point in getting a cool case if you won't even be seeing it. | ||

processors prices have gone down ALOT since i bought my 3200+ for $150 last year id recommend shelling out a little more and going with a san diego 3800+ since i remember everyone freaking out about how great san diego chipsets are also, dont get an xt just because the core mhz is high. if i recall correctly they only have 8 pixel pipelines!!! thats crap dude. go with a 7600gs for almost the same price. |

and to juno: the plastic casing is called the heat spreader. it does exactly what the name suggests. if you arent overclocking the memory to extremes then you should be better off getting whatevers cheaper. |

Amishburrito wrote ... and to juno: the plastic casing is called the heat spreader. it does exactly what the name suggests. if you arent overclocking the memory to extremes then you should be better off getting whatevers cheaper. He stole the words out of my mouth. The heatspreader is self-explanitory, however, not just for overclocking. It can help keep your ram cooler when it's at full load even if it isn't overclocked. But with 2gigs of ram I doubt it will ever be at full load. And burrito is right, get a 7600GS or 7600GT it's much better and a whole lot faster, and a 7600GS is about the same price. It's much better to get a Higher end card with 256 Memory than it is to get a lowend card with 512. Also, the 6800XT only has 8 pixel pipelines vs the 7600GS and 7600GT's 12 pixel pipelines, which are one of the few keys to hep your games look great. if you can't afford a 7600GT, another option would be an ATi Radeon X850 XT, but even then there are petter chices than the 6800XT. I would go with one of the ones I suggested here. |
