My first post and I need to say hello to this great community as it looks
Now to my topic. In few weeks I will have around 2000$ for a new gaming desktop pc. Thing is I live in EU Cyprus where everything electrical is really expensive. And I dont wonna order from aborad for many reasons.
Anyway I will ask all the forum experts to give me as many opinions as they might have about building a medium towards really good gaming pc. I dont need screan, mouse or anything like that. Just the PC.
CPU: Intel core 2 Quad | Intel core 2 Extreme Quad core | No idea about AMD...
Motherboard: Not sure, but I heared about upcomming DDR3 RAM and I can only ask if there is a motherboard at the momment that will support DDR3
RAM: at least 2gb of DDR2...
Graphic card: something around NVidia geforce 8800ultra
Sound card: something mediocore i guess
Hard drive(s): I can upgrade to a new HDD at any momment so i dont mind for any kind of space but I would like a good HDD with at least 300gb+
Case: no idea about cas but I would like to have a big one that can fit 2-3 HDD's, optical drivers and such.
CPU cooler: no idea
Power supply: i guess something around 1000w+
Operating sysetm: I would still go with XP pro but then again I imagine the Vista DX10...
I know Crysis will be demaning as hell in terms of pc power but if I can build a pc that can run it with at least above medium configuration then I will be happy. At the momment I have a good laptop for my university and so the gaming PC will be only for gaming and playing/watching multimedia/DVD.
So I am open to any suggestions and opinions about anything around my upcomming gaming pc
