Re: First Time Building
MMO addict? Your probably looking foward to The Age of Conan. You will need a decent video card for that game.
P.S. I will find a good build for you alittle later, right now I' am at work and on a bad computer. If I open more than 2 windows it lags, and if my boss walks in I have to close fast, lol! |

Re: First Time Building
Alright this is what I recommend.
Case: COOLER MASTER Centurion 5 - $50 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119068 Processor: Intel Core 2 Duo E6750 Conroe 2.66GHz 4M L2 Cache LGA 775 - $195 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16819115029 Motherboard: GIGABYTE GA-P35-DS3L LGA 775 Intel P35 ATX - $95 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813128059 Memory: G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 - $66 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820231098 Video Card: XFX GeForce 8800GTS 640MB 320-bit GDDR3 - $400 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814150215 Drives: LITE-ON LightScribe Black 20X DVD±R Burner with 12X DVD-RAM writer - $34 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16827106045 Below $950 altogether. I suggest you wait for the 8800GT to come out though, it will be cheaper and better than the 8800GTS. |
