5850

I decided on the 22" at 1680x1050. I mainly play games and browse. My wife emails with some business mixed in. Probably should get something with text that can be read more easily. Unfortunately, I only have room on my desk for something this size. Will clearly be a step up from 17" at...

Thanks for all the suggestions. I think I will get a widescreen monitor. Narrowed it down to these 2: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824236050 and http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16824236051 One's 1920x1080 (16:10). Other's 1680x1050 (16:9). Will be...

I am going to build a new pc with the following: AMD Phenom X4 955 (3.2 ghz) 4 gb DDR3 1600 I am keeping my 1280x1024 lcd monitor. Was thinking of getting an ATI 5850, but thought this could be overkill on this resolution. Maybe a 5770? Will be playing recent games (Crysis, Far Cry 2...

Does anyone know if AS Ceramique has an expiration date? I have some at home that I bought 2 years ago and was wondering if I should use it on a new build or buy some more?

This is an excellent PSU: 620HX

I am rebuilding , too. I am going to wait for the E6600 price drop or get a E6420 when they are released. I'm pretty patient when it comes to saving a little money. I have already bought this: Patriot Ram ASUS P5B Deluxe: Rocket II XFi Antec P160W Seagate 400gb...

Looks good!! I was thinking of buying a similar set-up (cpu & mobo). What heatsink/fan are you using?

I am upgrading my computer. Will be getting a A64 3200+ Venice with a XP-90 hsf and ASUS A8N-E or DFI NF4 Ultra. I will be overclocking. I need opinions on what memory to get. I narrowed it down to the following: CORSAIR XMS 1GB (2x512MB) Model TWINX1024-3200C2PT CORSAIR XMS 1GB (2 x...

I'd have to go with the Voodoo 1, also. The first time I saw Tomb Raider and Quake 1 with the 3Dfx patches... WOW!! Changed everything.

How much of a performance gain can I expect going from a 9700 Pro to a 6800GT using the same components in my sig? I would mainly be playing games at 1280x1024. I was comtemplating upgrading my whole system (A64, MB and vid card), but I could save some $ by just upgrading the video card...

Check this link: February 2005 Video Card price guide Notice the prices drops in the last couple of weeks. Hope this trend continues.

I'm in the same boat as you. I want to go NF4 with Pci-E but the cards are all out of my price range. My thinking is that as soon as Best Buy and Comp USA started getting the X800 XL in stock (and keeping them in stock) that you will see the online prices of these start to fall to the $300 -...
