Its about time to upgrade my comp
I'm sure theres someone on here who's much more knowledgeable about computer hardware than I am.
moneys not really a concern
So, If any of the Hardcore Nerdcore motherfuckers on here have some free time I need some help with this.
1.
Where to Buy
Best Price
Will it Work (is everything compatible)
2.
Heres what i "want", if anyone has something to change in the list, based on an intelligent opinion, then please let me know.
Mother Board: EVGA nForce 780i
CPU: Some kinda Intel Core 2 Quad, Ive used these overclocked and loved it, please dont suggest anything AMD I have dislike for them
GPU: Some type of SLI compatible 512mb 8800's, or whatever you think , 3 of them at a good price, May have to mix & match cause the 780i pcie slots are 2 2.o's and 1 1.0, correct me if im wrong
RAM: 4x 2gigs , I think im supposed to get 1033 to match the processor speed
Power Supply: I'm Totally lost here
HDD: At least 500 gb and with a decent speed
Cooling: I plan on overclocking, so maybe some liquid cooling.
CD/DVD: Read write cd's and dvd's, nothing too fancy
one of those card reader things that fits in the front of the case
Im good on sound cards
A case that will fit it all, but not too nice, some sights really fuck you over on the cases.
A copy of XPSP2 or I might even quit being such a pussy and try Vista
A gaming mouse or good mouse/keyboard package. A good mouse is really important, i like the G5 btw
All the required cables and such
Im a bit "gone" right now so if i forgot anything, Lemme know
Thanks guys, I really appreciate all help and comments
