Hey guys,
I am building a new computer for college.
This will not only be a work computer but a gaming. I play Americas Army and Battlefield 2. I am trying to decide between the Nvidia 7950 or the ATI 1950XTX. Also if the AMD Athlon 64 X2 4000+ Windsor 2.0GHz Socket AM2 Dual Core Processor is the right choice. Another question I have is what hard drives to buy. In the computer I have for home, I have 2- 74gig 10000rpm Raptor drives but I have been told they are becoming obselete due to hard drives now having 16mb buffers. Any feed back would be greatly appreciated. If you see anything there that you would not recommend please let me know. Thanks guys.
