Title: new rig! thanks Challenge & tildeath
Post by: spoonseven on January 10, 2011, 11:53:33 AM
You guys really got me thinking. plus the wife didn't want me to upgrade my old franken-computer.
so..
I went to the darks side and got:
nzxt new mid tower
amd phenom 3.2ghz black edition callisto chip, which said it was duel core, but when recognized by mb unlocked to a quad-core
g.skill 8gig ram
xfx 5770 juniper card
asus m4a79t mb
corsair 750w psu
sapphire active display adapter
home win7 64bit premium
segate 1 tb drive
asus dvd burner
and a tiny weenie little wireless receiver.(wireless rounter in other part of house)

you were right. one card handles the game on 3 monitors great. running 60fpi
bought components from new egg in dec. at time plenty of discounts/deals.
very happy!

Spoonseven, only one thing I don't see on here. What did you pay for everything??? I am looking to build one also and liked what you have.
