I building myself a new computer. My budget was $1500. Below are my components.
ASUS Striker Extreme motherboard
Intel® Core 2 Duo E6600 Conroe Processor 2.4GHz, 1066FSB
Corsair TWIN2X2048-8500C5 2GB Kit DDR2-1066 XMS2-8500
WD SATA II 500 GB
ATI ALL IN WONDER X1900 PCIE 256MB VGA DVI-I TV-OUT
Liteon SHM-165H6S 16X Dual Layer DVD±RW Drive w/LightScribe
Case - Apevia Aspire X-Cruiser AL
PWS - Thermaltake W0117RU Toughpower 750W Power Supply w/Active PFC
I'm a little nervous now about the motherboard. There is a lot of negative regarding Nvidia's newest chipset. Is this going to be a problem or do you think this will be okay. Did I get too cutting edge with the hardware or do you think it will be stable enough?
