Working my first new build in 7 years I am thinking of the following setup
Monitors: Dual Monitors Acer 17" & Envision 22" WS
Case: Undecided
CPU: X2 5000 Black Edition or X2 6000 ( I like the 1 mb cache or it wouldnt be a or and for only $30 more)
MB: GA-M59SLI-S5 or MSI K9A2 CF-F AM2+ ( really undecided on this one I really like the M59 but its not made anymore and its really hard to find except open box on New egg for $120 what a ripoff. The MSI seems like a decent REGULAR board...but it is AM2+ capable)
RAM:-
HD: WD360 Raptor 10,000 RPM 36GB Boot & system files
HD2: 72000 150 GB
CPU COoler:Rosewill RCX-Z940-LX 92mm Ball CPU Cooler
PS: Depends on CPU
Videocard: ATI Radeon HD 2400 PRO 256MB
Any thoughts? Trying to go for something that can do heavy duty multitasking, play video, music and perhaps light gaming (Starcraft 2)
