You went for an AMD processor over Intel? Interesting.

I run a dual core 3800 AMD and occasionally get games that wont play etc. So I was thinking Intel next time around.

5200 should be pretty quick.

I recently fitted this Overclocker Cafe - Inno3D GeForce 8800 GT Overclocked Edition Review

Already have 2gig ram.

Good rig, yea, sometimes games did not work for me on the amd's

Latest PITA game that didn't work is Gears of War.

Crysis was a blast, I love 1st person shooters. Fear, all 3 of them, BioShock ... awesome.

My old 6600 card couldn't keep up with these new ones.

Good config, just upgraded my computer as well. Finally went for Intel Core 2 Duo, after using AMD processors for over 8 years.

I'll be getting a 2nd 19" lcd after the new years, and speakers, and a cordless keyboard and mouse.

The wireless keyboard I have now has most of the letters worn off..lmao

oh, I'll be replacing the vista home with ultimate which I already have from school.

Always been a AMD Fan here, not too big on Intels, some of their new tech seems nice but the AMD processors have never let me down. I did have a Intel P3 just burn up on me a few years ago though.


Looks like a nice computer Brandon, although I always just buy barebones kits from Tigerdirect.com or Newegg.com and then build the rest myself.
