Hey guys,
Been out of the loop for 13 months so I haven't seen much of the newer changes for video cards, processors and the like.. Been doing a bit of research now that I have some admin time and put together a bunch of components and was hoping you guys could critique it or give me some bits of advice as far as different components.
Case: SILVERSTONE TJ-03 BLCK Black Aluminum ATX Full Tower Computer Case
Motherboard: ASUS Striker II Formula LGA 775 NVIDIA nForce 780i SLI ATX Intel Motherboard
Processor: Intel Core 2 Quad Q9300 Yorkfield 2.5GHz LGA 775 95W Quad-Core Processor
Memory: CORSAIR DOMINATOR 4GB (2 x 2GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 1066 (PC2 8500) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory x2
Video Card: BFG Tech BFGE981024GX2E GeForce 9800 GX2 1GB (512MB per GPU) 512-bit (256-bit per GPU) GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card x2
Power Supply: PC Power & Cooling S75QB 750W EPS12V Power Supply
Hard Disk: Western Digital Caviar SE16 WD3200AAKS 320GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive x2
Sound Card: Creative 70SB046A00000 7.1 Channels PCI Interface Sound Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Professional Series
Optical Drive: LITE-ON Black SATA Blu-ray DVD-ROM Drive Model DH-4O1S-08
The total ends up being close to $3k and I know there are ways I can reduce my cost and get a better bang for my buck.
Any help would be much appreciated
