Super old thread for an even older event, but just happened to run across it. I was one of the few I got that price on it. WMC was insane!

Pretty excited to create a new build around this thing.

And it has no more lag that the best of the TN tech panels? For sure.

Ok, I'm going to definitely pass on the IPS now as input lag of any kind is what I'm trying the most to avoid. I'm extremely sensitive to input lag & that's one of the main things I want to avoid at all costs. In fact this is the performance aspect to monitor's I was meaning earlier. I lost my...

P.s. what about a sound card?

Is LED worth looking at or is the IPS technology better quality? I'm still kind of interested in the 3D & the 120hz for the monitor. Is 3d well supported in all games or is it just a few? Also is it gimmicky or really mind blowing? I'm thinking it would be really neet in pc racing sims maybe...

Cool! I definitely want the biggest, fastest SSD then. On the case ok, no prob, new case it is.

Ok. I'll say this for sure... Definitely the best, highest performance video card available. No 2nd video card at all but it would be great to add another to it in a couple years. For now, prefer just 1 card but definitely the highest performance made. If 2 cards is needed then so be it & 'll...

Sorry I meant left after Battlefield 2, not 3. I have no idea on a monitor, at all! I don't know what IPS means. I'm thinking 1080p or above & at least 24" minimum. 30 " is fine too. I don't HAVE to have over 24" & I have no idea what resolutions are considered best but 1080p minimum. I would...

Gaming mostly, work stuff isn't heavy duty CAD & only occasionally do I bring my work home. I've built 4 rigs total in the past & was back then a big enthusiast but real life got in the way & I didn't have time so I just gamed on consoles. I literally haven't read a thing since & have no idea...

It's been ages since I've built a new PC so I'm completely out of touch, so I really need help in choosing everything. My old PC is so old I'm not sure anything is reusable. It has a nice aluminum midtower case, an Intel P4 2.8, sata hdd, & quality ps but I think I'm just going to buy everything...

Still around though it's been a long time since I've been here. Just was relating this story today and got me to google it. I wasn't a WMC because I was one of the few who got the monitor. I still have it and still have my best and most favorite memories from gaming on it. I miss the CRT's...

i didn't think that worked right with windows xp (?)

ok, thanks. the only problem is that CPU is out of stock almost everywhere. :( this is what i have so far though... GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX All Solid Capacitor Intel Motherboard - Retail Model #: GA-P35-DS3L $89.99 EVGA 512-P3-N801-AR GeForce 8800GT 512MB 256-bit...

ok thanks. i will definitely be sticking with my 32 bit Windows XP. I don't really care to have more than 2 gigs of ram at this point. what about the CPU you recommended, I see it supports 64 bit. I think I am really confused, are you saying it's also a 32 bit CPU? i definitely want to avoid...
