[samsonite]

ok so im making a huge jump from my current config listed in my signiture to a q-pack stuffed with all the good stuff.

aspire X-QPack
JetWay A210GDMS-Pro
athlon 64 fx 60
Radeon X1900XTX (hopefully)
4gb ocz platinum ram
enermax liberty 500w
10k rpm raptor 36gb
250gb 7200rpm 'cuda
sound blaster audigy2 ZS
Zalman cpu coolerThis one
5.25" Slot 1
5.25" Slot 2

and i am wondering if the x1900xtx will fit. lol
please let me know if you see any problems with hardware fitting in this set up. thanks!

Man sounds like your going to do it, get an ultimate machine (we all know that that only lasts for around three weeks)!
What operating system?


(First, do no harm!)

xp pro im not a big linux fan just because i dont like the lay out but time will only tell what i get but the compy is a go not just a dream anymore. lol but if the video card wont fit then i cant get that case and im back to square one

Looks like a beast of a machine.

I don't know the ATI Xpress boards so I dunno if that is a good one or not, the rest seems pretty great

Except I recommend an X-Fi card, why skim on any of the components when spending that much. More and more games will start to be programmed for it, BF2 is incredible with just a 2.1 speaker system and X-Fi card.

I'd also recommend the Zalman CNPS9500 over the one you have listed as it has heatpipes which pulls the heat away from the cpu then dispates it. Especially if you plan to OC it'll skim few more degrees off your temps.

Looks good man, but for your raptor, unless your running raid, one raptor doesn't really makes difference in loading programs/games. Other than that its gonna be a beast.

Yeah get the Xfi it would do you justice for the future. However the X1900XTX
is huge. I have the X1900XT anjd it is huge, but what the heck go for it.

LOL thanks for yall's input, but my main question is if the video card will fit in the case i dont wanna spent the money on parts that wont fit lol. and the raptor will only be for my os and a few games maybe cs. yeah and i dont think that cou cooler will fit lol space is a big issue lol
