Well here goes.
So far I have these componants
2 GB OCZ DDR2 Dual Channel "Gold Edition" (667MHZ) RAM
*Question on this ram: I was told this is very solid ram. The timings are 4:4:4:7, Did I miss something? Thought 2:2:2:4 was the best timing for ram??*
2x Samsung 120GB HDD SATA (Raid 0)
Soundblaster X-FI Xtream Music
2x BFG 256MB Geforce 7800 GTX-OC's(SLI)
600w (700w Peak) OCZ SLI PowerStream PSU
52x CD-RW
16x DVD-RW Dual Layer
ATI TV Tuner Pro (Remote Control Edition)
Logitech 5.1 500w RMS 1000w Peak Speakers
2x 21 inch LCD Monitors(Wide Screen) (8MS 1000:1 Contrast Ratio)
Now I just took back the Pentium D 830 Dual Core 3.0ghz and the Asus P5ND2 Intel edition Mainboard cause it sucked soooo much lol. I am now going to try an AMD setup for the first time since there Thunderbird core(which sucked btw)
So I need a mainboard and CPU.
DFI NF4 SLI-DR Expert (Lan Party UT) is what I was thinking. Is there a better mainboard for AMD chips? If so please list them.
Now I dont know very much about AMD chips. This is a gaming computer only. What is the best AMD chip for gaming atm? Am guessing Dual cores isnt the way to go yet cause my Intel Dual core sucked. But I do want to be vista/mac dual boot ready. So am I going 64bit Athlons? or 32bit Single cores? What do you all think I should go with for my AMD chip?
