little help

Drakin316 · 03-28-2006, 08:01 AM

I am getting ready to build a new system. I just lost my mother board and CPU do to someone unplugging my water kit on my coputer. so it is shot and I really just needed a very small push to build another one. I am going to fix my current computer it was just a reason to build a better system.

This is what I am thinking about so far and please tell me if you would recommend something else so I can build the top end system. This is the first time that I am going to go all out on one. I usually just go second generation I want first this time.

What I have so far.

mother board - ASUS P5N32-SLI Deluxe -------- 194.99

video card - 7900GTX 512mb -------- 529 - X2

Ram - CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) -------- 272

CPU - Intel Pentium D 950 Presler 800MHz FSB 2 x 2MB L2 Cache LGA 775 Dual Core Processor or the 3.73 extreme not sure yet -------- 657

PSU - Antec TruePower 2.0 TP2-550 EPS12V ATX12V 550W Power Supply -
RetaiL -------- 94.99

Case - Don't know about this one yet either

Water Kit - CoolIT Systems Freezone CPU Cooler This is a gel kit --------399.99

Sound Card - Creative Labs - Sound Blaster X-Fi Elite Pro -------- 269

Speakers - I have no idea yet... any sugestions?

DVD Burner - ASUS 16X DVD±R DVD Burner W/ 5X DVD-RAM Write Black E-IDE/ATAPI Model DRW1608P2SBLACK RTL -------- 50.99 X2

Hard Drive - Western Digital Raptor WD1500ADFD 150GB 10,000 RPM Serial ATA150 Hard Drive 280 X2 - raid 0 - I may end up going raid 0+1 still not sure

Total 3607.95

Price is not a problem I just want the top end system

Ok I guess no one would change anything so I will just go with this setup.

I wouldnt get the Raptor. If it was me i would buy

2 x Hitachi Deskstar T7K250 NCQ 250GB SATA-II 8MB Cache for about £100.

Its just as quick as the Raptor but with more space, quieter and alot more cheaper.
