I am getting ready to purchase the hardware for my new system. Priorities for it are silence (video card) and performance.
Here it goes..
P5W DH Deluxe Motherboard $277
e6600 Processer $360
Corsair 2x2GB DDR2 800 6400c4 $298
Asus EN7600GT Silent video card $204
This is obviously the guts of the system and is at about $1150 dollars. I mean is this a good system for the money. Great Performance Per Dollar machine??????? I want it to last and I know that this is hard to do with computers, but just need some advice.
I will be using this computer for e-mail, internet, applications, and the more intense stuff would be playing the latest games and video editing and/or rendering. Please let me know what you guys think. I am so close to buying everything, but a bit hesitant. I wish this would be a good upgrade path for future hardware. I think I could use the ram again in the future as DDR2 might be around for a while. Please let me know. Thanks
