Hello everyone,
I'm a regular on www.sharkyforums.com and I've posted my soon-to-be-built system so many times I can't even count, refining it oh-so-carefully so that I have the "perfect" system. Since these boards just came up a few days ago, I thought I'd post the outline of a system that I will be purchasing next month.
Any comments, suggestions, personal experience stories and tips are appreciated!
Btw, the prices are in Canadian Dollars, so don't freak out. (1USD = 1.5CND approx.)
Just a few notes so I don't hear the same arguments all over again:
(1) I'm NOT going with the AMD 760. This is final. It's nothing against the 760, I just like the setup I have now.
