Hopefully in the next century or so I will build myself a box. good luck hope you get some good graphics/gameplay plus you built it. That's the real cool part :)]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21615388 Sun, 21 Dec 2008 03:09:15 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21476597 bonnieville : thank you sir for the info. will have a look shortly. frank.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21476597 Mon, 24 Nov 2008 10:47:18 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21474045 m8trix : this one would easily run you system even if you upgrade to a 9800 or 4850

As mentioned, pickup a higher quality PSU, and the 9600GT is a poor choice right now. You can pickup a 9800GT or 4850 for not to much more and they are significantly faster.]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21472757 Sun, 23 Nov 2008 13:46:49 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21472722 m8trix : ditch the pwr supply and get a high quality one as this is the one area you do not want to go cheap cause if it fails it can take out your entire system.

look into one of these brands based on your budget

corsair
pc power & cooling
ocz
thermaltake
antec

corsair is probably the best out in terms of performance and quality and highly recommend]]> http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21472722 Sun, 23 Nov 2008 13:34:51 EDT http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,21472696 bonnieville : afternoon folks. friend of mine put this together for me. anything that could or should have been changed? looking to play a2a combat games. have microsoft flight simulator gold edition installed so far.
