Hey everyone... i already ordered this build and it is on its way... I have 30 days to send it back in to upgrade is necessary. I have built a rig in the past and all went great! I didnt have the time to do TONS of research and order and build one myself, so i went ordered a "custom built" desktop and am wondering if there is anything else i need/should add. Last i built was 4 years ago and MUCH has changed since then! I am especially wondering about compatibility or tech issues regarding any of the components...
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH in advance everyone!
CPU: Intel Core i7 2.66 GHz (liquid cooled)
Hard Drive: 1TB SATA-II 3.0 g/s @7200 RPM
Motherboard: Asus P6T X58 Chipset ATI/CrossfireX Motherboard (Triple channel DDR3@1600)
Memory: 12 gig corsair DDR3 @1600MHz
OS: Windows Vista Ultimate 64bit
Video Card: ATI Radeon 4870 PCI-E 512MB DDR5
Thats the main stuff.... The case will be cooled with the 2 case fans along with two additional fans. The HDD has a Hard Drive cooling system on it aswell... I really wanna make sure it doesnt overheat while gaming.. I opted to run the sigle graphics card for the moment but MAY run it in crossfire down the road. I am not looking to have the most FPS known to man... just want to be able to play most any game seamlessly on high settings.
The computer will also be my main computer for "day to day" type stuff.. (i.e. data/word processing, internet, etc etc). And thats about it... I GREATLY appreciate ANY and all feedback. Just dont flame me... that gets old... constructive criticism will do... LOL
