As the title says, I need a new computer. My current computer decided to die today. I use my computer mostly for 3D modeling and gaming, so it should be pretty good. I have a mouse, keyboard, and monitor that I can use(they all suck-but that's besides the point).
What I'm thinking of getting: (budget ~$1550 US)
Gigabyte AM2 Mobo:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813128011
196.99
Athlon 64 X2: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16819103739
369 (<---- that price should drop in a few days, right?)j
Corsair RAM(2GB): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16820145590
198
OCZ PSU(520w): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817711002
134.99
DVD Burner: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16827135063
36.99
Hard Drive(250GB): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16822136010
81.99
Case: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16811233001
139.99
Video Card(7900GT): http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814130033
269.99
Windows: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16837102059
89.99
Total: 1517.93 (without shipping)
To all fanboys: I'm going with AMD because, even though the Conroe benchmarks look really promising, Newegg has none in stock.
Suggestions, anyone?
