As I am beginning to part out my old system(s), I sold my old 9800GTXs, my old GTX 260s, I am looking to sell the Motherboards. But I was actually thinking about giving 4 fully built systems (or can build) to two of my 'favorite' second younger cousins for gaming. I may concern a third cousin.
These are the builds that I am looking at:
System #1
Asus Striker Extreme with QX6800
8 GB of Corsair XMS
8800GTX in SLI with 8800GTS for PhysX (or 8800GTX inTri-SLI)
2 to 3 hard drives from 300GB to 500GB
Antec 850 or Ultra 1000 (for Tri-SLI)
System #2
Asus P5N-32 SLI Plus with QX6700
4 GB of Hyper X
8800GTS (640) in SLI (or single 8800GTX) with 8800GTS for PhysX
2 to 3 hard drives from 300GB to 500GB
Antec 850
System#3
eVGA 680i with Q6600
4 GB of Corsair XMS
8800GTS (640) OC in SLI (or single 8800GTX) with 8800GTS for PhysX
2 to 3 hard drives from 300GB to 500GB
Antec 850
System#4
evga 750i with Q9550
8 GB of Corsair XMS
eVGA 9800GX2 (OR XFX 295) (or single 8800GTX) with 8800GS for PhysX
2 to 3 hard drives from 300GB to 500GB
Ultra 750
I have two 780i/750i boards which I am keeping to myself, to run with a Q9650.
with the 2 650 ti I just got.
Now I am looking see which is the better then the next and go from there and sell anything else I do not use.
Just like an opinion on which system would be good to run today's games on, even at low settings. Just something for them to play, I am gonna load each with all the games I have played over the last 5 years.
I am currently running on my Alienware M14x and looking to build the 780i as my last Socket 775 build, before I move to iCore.
Any comments would be appreciated. I hope this a good discussion.
