Do they require regular maintenance? As in, re-fuelment of coolants? I'm rather new the whole thing so I honestly don't know. Also, any opinions on the manufacturer Asetek? Thansk much.

Well, anyone? Is this in the right forum?

Allright, heres the deal. They've got some amazingly priced deals, I managed to configure a 2.4 quad, 4 gigs of RAM, Geforce 8800 GT, 500 gigs of harddrive with a 750w power-supply for $1600, all with Vista home premium 64-bit. Thats an incredibly competetively priced deal that I have yet to see...

Can someone tell me if the 650i is a solid motherboard for a system with 4 gigs of ram, a Geforce 8800 GT and a Core 2 2.4 quad? Thanks much.

Allright, I don't know much about motherboards, so honestly I'm a bit in the dark when it comes to this question. But here it is, is the 650i a good processor when the rig is composed of a Core 2 2.4 quad, 4 gigs of RAM, and a Geforce 8800 GT? Is it up to snuff? Thanks much.

Aight, so I'm just wondering if a 600w power supply is sufficient for a rig thats equipped with an Intel Core 2 Quad 2.4 ghz, GeForce 8800 GT and 4 gigs of ram. Honestly I have no idea, wondering if an upgrade to a 720w power supply is warranted. Also the case I'm looking at has a 420w power...

Haha I do, but I appreciate the rapid feedback I get on these sorts of forums, really appreciate it and helps out a great deal.

Yep, Taltamir got what I was trying to say. If it weren't for tech forums like Anandtech I wouldn't have a fucking clue as to what the best GPU for the dollar was, nVidia used to make it fairly obvious with their naming scheme but now its getting kinda crazy. Its AWESOME that the GT is more...

Oh....ok. Fuck Nvidia makes these things WAY more confusing than they have to be, its like they're deliberately intending to rip people off. :/

Wait, what? Isn't an 8800 GTS better than the GT? Wouldn't that render moot all the replies to this thread? o_O

Wait wait, say what? Its equivalent to a 8800 GTS? Isn't that better than an 8800 GT?

Ahh, ok, I see what you mean. I misunderstood the upgrade question. Its all good. :D

Nope, definitely an 8800. :D Anyway, thats about it, thanks for all the help all. :D

Not an upgrade, just a from scratch configuration.

Allright then, thanks very much everyone, greatly appreciate it. ;) BTW I'm getting this configuration through iBuyPower, since I don't feel like building my own computer this time around I've heard a lot of good thigns about them (Anandtech included). Their price of $182 for an 8800 GT is...
