HI,
im emepror, 15 in RL and im working up the cash to spend the most mosney ill probabl ever spend till college cones around, the setup is as follows:
case of my choice (e-atx) nehalem performance CPU tylersburg x58 motherboard starting with 2 gigs of ram ( to increase to 6 later on so i can cut costs) 750gig HD 900w PSU ( those cool customizabl power cable ones) 9800 gx2 GPU (future SLI) 1 cd drive 1 usb floppy drive (stupid floppy disk bios updates) PCI network card
im probably missing something but anything you can tell me :)
few things: -im looking around 1200-1600 dollar price tag -i want it by july 20th to take to quakecon -i need ways to make extra cash for both QC and the chance i may need 2 grand plz rate my setup -i know the nehalem and tylersburg are not out yet but that is the core of my setup now that me and my friend have decided these are the closest thing we have to god processors right now -anything else you can add!!
ohh and sry if this is in the wrong forum and if this is a giant wall of text

Edited by: emepror on 18/09/2008 22:31:46 well i like the 9800GX2 because it has the 2 GPU in 1 and the reviews arent that bad
for those who say forget about the nehalem and tylersberg.... 3 things: -they are coming in november - and no...i want it cuase of the huge preformance upgrade...plus the LGA 1366 which seems like its going to be the ned LGA 775 - the prices are actually quite reasonable.... seems about $315 for the basic one $500 for performance
but i have gotten some good stuff from the posts. - thanks for the tip about the HD thing, the way it sounded looks like its gona run alot better - no need for floppy anymore!!!!! -and i know i've missed something just dont know what
i dont want ati either...i kinda shun ati/amd

Edited by: emepror on 18/09/2008 23:58:09 then what nvidia GPU do you suggest i get then? i do here the GTX 212 will be out soon too....
would a 750 watt PSU work?
update: case of my choice (e-atx) nehalem performance CPU tylersburg x58 motherboard 6 gigs of ram 2x 250gig HDD 750w PSU ( those cool customizabl power cable ones) UNKNOWN GPU ( for now) 1 cd drivy thing ( what ever you guys suggested... im to lazy to look)
anything else?

i dont care about the price as long as its around 1.5-2 grand.... ive been planning a comp costing this much since 12 im only starting to get the money needed now
a tylersburg x58 mobo has tri channel support = 6 cards of ram (thats why i want 6 gigs)
probably going to get an SLI 9800gx2 or ill wait to see what the GTX 212's are like
dual HDD thing seems pretty interesting....i just dont know if i want 500 gigs or just 300gigs
ive posted here a few times but other than that nothing and i know im a noob about this stuff right now but its going to be a VERY BIG INVESTMENT on my part so i want to get it right. |

obviously this post is starting to die off so final comments: ( probably gonna end up startingmore arguments)
stop whining at me about 9800 gx2 vs the ati 1, remember im 15 and i have no real experience in building computers.....BUT who ever said new stuff is coming out is right, there will be new stuff
the nehalems are the mircoarchitecture with the bloomfield being the actual type of processor i want which from everywhere ive looked all 3 varients are coming out between late october to late december
so from the stuff ive learned from this post and my friend i have stuff to build on.... mission accomplished
