got me :confused:

Building a rig. Need a heatsink for this processor: AMD Socket 939 Athlon 64 3500+, 90nm, 2.2 GHz, 512KB L2 Cache 64-bit Processor - OEM What heatsink should I use with that? Please post a link to newegg. my mobo is going to be an ASUS A8N-SLI deluxe, if that helps

I'm a noob putting together this gaming rig, but I'm not sure if I've thought of everything. Will these components work together? Should I make changes? I'm not sure about RAM. Anyway please help and please comment on my list: ANTEC Silver Aluminum Performance 1 Series ATX Mid-Tower Case...

From what I have read around here, the nvidia 6800s need a different type of power connector. If that's the case, then what PSU should I purchase. Recommendations are welcome. I'm a noob, so I not even sure how components actually interface w/ PSUs. I need a PSU that has enough capability...

so what PC#### do you guys reccomed? Is it only PC3200? I dont understnd what the different numbers mean.

Can someone make a RAM reccomendation for me if using the new A8N-SLI. I'd like 2 gigs but I think I'll only be able to afford 1 gig. So, is it better to get 2 X 512 or 1 stick of 1 gig so I can add another stick later? I don't know much about all this so If you could tell me pins # and DDR...

I've been looking for this card for awhile but no one has it in stock. Am I looing in the wrong places or are they just not available? If not, does anyone know when I should be able to find one?

Where can I get a Nvidia 6800 GT PCI-E? Are they out yet? I've been looking everywhere, at least the sites I know. Help me out!!

With these new mobo showing up, I am eager to get a couple 6800 gt pic-e. Anybody know where I can find at least one of those in stock?

I have read that there is a special connector that leads from the PSU to the GPU in a PCI-E / SLI setup. I dont know much about this stuff. Can someone explain to me whats up with this and what kind of PSU and connecter I am going to need if running 2 PCI-E cards and the new A8N-SLI. THANKS!

Are any of you all experiencing any ghosting with either the 2001 or the 2005?

Is there any difference or advantage to getting (2x) 512 versus just getting a single 1 gig stci of RAM? I'm building a system for gaming and would think that, all things being equal, it would be better to get a single stick of 1 gig RAM and then add another stick of 1 gig down the road. As...

You gaming with that? Any ghosting?

I've been searching for a good gaming monitor. I'd like a 19 or 20 inch Samsung display, but they all have response times of like 22 or 25 ms. So, I do want to spend $500 dollars on a monitor that ghosts or one that just plain sucks. Do I need to go with a 17 inch nstead, or a model other...

Ok... 1.) so let say for example you are running two Nvidia 6800's in this new ASUS mobo, which card does he viedo line out come from. I am assuming that one card would be used to send the video signal, thus one card is a slave to the other. Or, do you somehow have to merge the two signals...
