So here is the scoop.
After 3 or so years of service my gaming rig literally blew up. Yep I had the whole smell of burning silicone and everything. I am trying to salvage most of what I got but it was time for an upgrade anyway.
I salvaged the Thermaltake case, hard drives, dvd burners and sound card.
So basically I have a case that needs to be filled with some power able to run some games at a good fps at a pretty high resolution. I recently bought a Samsung 216BW for my viewing pleasures.
My budget is around $1000.
The only thing I really have picked out is the Intel Q6600 Quad, everything else is fair game. So with the help of some forum members I was hoping to piece together a decent rig. I will be able to OC so a mobo with some good OC capabilities would be nice. Read good things about the Asus P5K.
So that's my story, thanks for the help and hope to get this together quickly for some fun after the holidays. Thanks again.
