Hey hey =] im 15, i already know how to build computers and i've been working with them since... 12 or 13? This current computer, Pentium 4 3.0GHz 800FSB 512KBcache is old and slow i need to upgrade from this '03 sys, 2GB 400MHz ram, 7950GT AGP lolz. So, i just need some reviews and some suggestions about this new computer build for around a 1000 or 1100 dollars and some directions to point to for a good MOBO, and if my PSU is fit for the job, and some processor Q's.. here it is.......
8GB 1600MHz Kingston HyperX latency 8 RAM...
Intel Core i7-950...
Nvidia GeForce GTX 470 (Need help on this, got Q's for maybe a GTX 570)...
750Watt PSU from the manufacturer, Ultra. (Have Q's on this too)...
Is the PSU enough to handle this system? Is the PSU enough to handle any OVERCLOCKS on the GPU and CPU?
Should i get the GTX 470, or should i side with the GTX 570? Any performance differences and is it worth the jump from the 470 to the 570?
WHAT MOBO SHOULD I GET? I was thinking of the Asus PX something something... ??? Hmmm.. help?
i7 950 vs i7 920 D0? Which overclocks better, and which is better just overall? the 950......... right?
I've built a older system like at the beginning of the year in January.. and it would've worked but it didnt boot right and it was i think because i need to reformat the HD i already had, and i thought it was the mobo.. >.< ohwell the sys would've been kinda pointless now. Thanks, help the 15 yr old out would ya!
