I have posted a few times the last week trying to get some advice on a build for a gaming rig. I will be playing Warhammer Online mostly, but enjoy lots of other games as well. So far this is the build i have put together with the help of people on this forum so far. If there is anything that wont work, or something I can upgrade for about the same price, let me know. I am not experienced with over clocking either, just FYI. And would a Full tower work better? I left the names of the items off the page, because honestly I'm not sure what part of the information to post, so I did links.
Case: http://www.buy.com/prod/antec-nine [...] 97579.html (Again, I'm not sure if i want to go for Full size case or not, would like to leave the option open for 2 video cards in the future. And if 2 video cards don't work with this build, please let me know.)
Thanks to shortstuff_mt for the help so far on this build. Thanks to all in advance, I really appreciate the help because I really need it.
Your build looks really good man. All are great choices.
If you are planning on overclocking make sure you get an aftermarket heatsink fan.
Here is a good one:
The antec 900 should work fine with your build, the only reason to go full tower is if you want to have alot of extra room to easily fit your stuff in. Whereas with a mid tower it might get slightly cramped, which isn't much of a problem especially if you do some cable routing.
Also your motherboard is great for running 2 graphics cards if you do choose to do that later on.
Only problem with using a used OS is that it probably would be 32-bit, and using a 1gb graphics card would take quite a nice chunk out of your usable ram.
