Good work mate! Too bad I don't feel like frying my shit... Otherwise I'd do the same thing. New soundcard owns! So does that wireless logitech joystick. I'm gonna have to try owning you sometime Eric.

And exactly what ram, proc and drives would you be running on this big rig?
Jinkalo
By the way, you wouldn't happen to have a PCI-e video card that's better than a 6600GT on you would you Eric?
black-sheep758
na man i wish i had a pci-e card i would give it to you My old system was agp so i have this 6800 thats going to sit in a box for a little bit unless some 1 would like to take it off my hands 75 obo

As far as ram cpu and drives

corsair pc4000 "with active led lights" 1g 512x2
amd athlon 3200+ same thing you have but i think i got the newer core???? idk "this will be clocked to 2.4g when my new parts arrive
80 g sata nothing special was on budged when I bought it whn i get the extra 400$ i will be running 2x 150g raptors in raid 0 oh yea!!!

Bah, that ain't such a bad setup. I have yet to see reason enough to switch to PCI-E, other than it's new and shiny. Every game I own or want to own will run on my system, so I'm not shelling out the cash. I just got a new vid card (GF 6600 256mb AGP), and I'd like to upgrade my CPU a bit over the next little while. I'm still running 1GB of 400mhz DDR, as well.

BiG_Weasel's System
  • 2.1 Ghz AMD Athlon XP
  • 1Gb (2x512) PC3200 400mhz DDR
  • Geforce 6600 LE 256mb AGP
  • 100 GB Total IDE HDs (1x 80 GB, partitioned; 1x20 GB for music)
The only thing that's slowing me down is the slower RPMs on my HDs, but I can live with that.

I am using my '84 Apple Mac.

agp? no thankyou. you couldnt pay me to go back to agp. i love my dual pci-e 7800gt's. nothing like getting over 200 fps in bf2. and the recording quality i get with fraps...there is just no turning back. pci-e is not just the new shiny thing, its the future. lol

black-sheep758
i would have bought 2 7900 gts but i didnt have the extra 330$

As far as agp and pci-e i will just have to see for my self

1 more day and new shit is here yay!!!
BiG_Weasel
All I'm saying is that my current rig will run what I need it to. Maybe in another 4-5 months I'll do a complete overhaul, but for now, what I have suits my needs. I don't always need to have the newest and best.
Jinkalo
I do! I wish I had a fucking fx-57 with two raptor 150's in raid 0 on a fucking evo SATA card on that fucking owning Plextor SATA DVD drive with two 7900GTX's in SLi on the MSI K8n diamond whatever on the Apple 30" cinema screen!!! I wish!!! Oh yea, and two more gigs of that sweet OCZ Gold GX Gamer ram overclocked 20%!!!

Close to the system I just put together.

I went FX60 with Asus A8N Prem and only 1 7900GTX. When the DX10 Vid cards come out I will sell the 7900GTX and go with 2 DX10 vid cards.

The OCZ memory is sweet. I dont OC anything because there is no need ATM.

I just did the upgrade to my mem on my Mac, it now has 8MB of ram!
Jinkalo
DX10? Inform me more of this new technology!
black-sheep758
shit came today and putting her together!!!!!
BiG_Weasel
Yeah, buddy! There's nothing quite like building that big, honkin' PC that you've been dying to construct. It's like something out of Frakenstein or something. Mwwahahahahahaha!

Direct X10 should be realeased along with Windows Vista.

Its pretty much the next gen in graphics. Should be out in Dec or Jan.


All DX9 video cards will be able to run DX10 games but you wont see all the new toys DX10 has to offer.


and from what ive seen Crysis I want I want! I want!


Otherwise its just another way to keep us shmoes paying for new hardware. smile.gif
