New PC

[-(aaK)- Pascalsys]

I may be coming into some spare cash £2000 ish. With this money I will be building/buying a uber gaming machine. I have confused myself silly with reviews and sites. Any ideas or suggestions would be great.I already have monitor etc. To give you an idea what i am thinking of

AMD 64 FX55
1GB DDR maybe 2
2x 256MB 6800 ULTRA (SLI) OR JUST 1 COS OF PRICE
160gb HDD SATA or 2x 74gb WD raptor drive (again price dependent)
Gotta have a Cool case ie alienware style or wavemaster

Class dude.

I so want that FX55. Its just sadistic.
I'm waiting till i can afford a new pci express graphics card before i rebuild mine again.

Just bought myself a massive custom built clear case.
Gotta wait til it ships from canada lol.
Then i'm buying a water cooling kit so i can stare at it as i works.

[glow=red,2,300]whatever you do m8, buy a good board to go with that rig, read the reviews, dont just buy any old board, memory wise, buy yourself a matched pair of sticks, not just a single stick, either 512mb x 2 or 1gb x 2, cas 2 preferable:) you will really notice the difference:) try corsair memory:)[/glow]
