Re: Building up my gaming rig and need your suggestions on stuff
if you go with a true external sound card, go with a an Asus Xonar or HT Omega Striker:

»www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···29271001
X-Fi is shit
for CPU, go with E8400 for $10 more: »www.newegg.com/Product/Product.a···19115037
or a Q6600 if you can find one for $200 or less.
i jave no comment on the rest besides the GFX card. 9600GT is a fabulous card for the price. im not sure i'd go SLI, though, unless you were running 24" LCd is larger. these puppies play almost every new game on max quality with more than playable FPS @ 1680x1050.
if you want more performance, drop $220 total and get an 8800GTS 512MB instead.
if you're sticking to 9600GT, they can be found cheaper than $170. quality brands can be had for 140 w/o rebate.
