    Internet?

    Rate my Future Rig

    yea, that case is the ugliest POS i've ever seen... get a better one, such as the thermaltake soprano or something. anything except that case you have picked out. The GTX is a great card and will be able to play any game you want right now at good settings, but ill have to agree with everyone...

    Amd Athlon X2 4200+ or Amd Opteron 170

    opterons are best for overclocking and/or sever based setups. i'd definetly recommend the X2 4200+ any day.

    X1900XT

    anyone here believe that the X1900XT video card will be able to handle FEAR, quake 4, HL2, cod 2 and doom 3 at max AA and AF with all max settings enabled at 1280x1024 resolution with a decent framerate?

    Dual Core P4's vs. Dual Xeons

    X2 3800 Again.....

    The X-2 has 2 cores on the same die, making multitasking a breeze with it. Each core operates at 2.0 Ghz and each core has 512 KB of L2 Cache. I'm not sure if L2 Cache makes a big difference from 512 KB to 1 MB though.

    Recommended memory for my new rig?

    if your going to be overclocking, i suggest you get some good RAM with heatspreaders and very low timings, such as the Gskill stuff that is 169 bucks at newegg. Those have timings of 2.5-3-3-6 and have good heatspreaders.

    no, im not a real big hardcore gamer. I dont play games all day long. I, however, want to be able to play FEAR, Quake 4, HL2, CoD2, Doom 3 all on max AA and AF with max settings enabled with over 60 fps. so i dont think the 21 ms monitor is going to make a big impact. And the price is right, and...

    also, i dont really like black things. thats why i went with a nice sliver looking case, and i went with the silver LCD. So, hyundai isnt the way to go with LCD's?

    New Computer

    wouldnt the X2 4400+ be a better choice because of the extra cache and higher operating frequency? if not the 3800+ would the 4200+ be a better choice over the 4400?

    Arctic Frrezer Pro 64 Question

    um there should be no grease required to install that particular heatsink. Maximum PC says it should take only about a few seconds to install it.
