    Opinion on new build

    Since you are not interested in overclocking E6850 is a better choice for you, 3.0Ghz dual core will dominate 2.4Ghz quad in all current games. There's no need for any additional CPU cooling with no overclocking, stock fan will work just fine at stock frequencies. If you still want something...

    $1.600,00 Gaming Rig Could you give me your input before buying it ?

    Very good build. There's absolutely no reason NOT to go with quad, the majority of upcoming games like Crysis, UT3, Alan wake and other will be able to utilize 4 cores fully . The extra MHZ you can get easily with OC, extra 2 cores you can't. PSU is more than enough. I wouldn't change a thing...

    PSU advice

    If you prefer OCZ you should go with OCZ GameXStream OCZ700GXSSLI, very quiet and reliable unit. If you can spend a little more, PC Power & Cooling 750 Quad is one of the best PSU's there are, truly exceptional unit in all aspects. And lastly, Corsair 620HX is very popular choice, very...

    can I OC this processor?

    Whichever motherboard comes with such systems usually has a) very poor overclocking features b) none whatsoever. Your best bet is Abit IP35-E, a nice board in all aspects, great overclocking features, nice price. Only $69.95 after $20 rebate...

    Time to upgrade, suggestions? Here is what I am thinking..

    Q6600 is a great buy considering you are willing to overclock it a little, even with cheap $22 cooling like Freezer 7 Pro you will be able to achieve 3.0Ghz fairly easily. Q6600 will benefit in virtually ever game which will be released later this year (Crysis, UT3), they all utilize 4 cores...

    Buying a new computer -- Help needed!

    Corsair 520HX would be fine even if you had a GTX in there :) I agree with the person above me, get Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R instead for $150CAD, put the money saved into the video and get 640MB version of 8800 GTS.

    system recommendation / build

    It's hard to recommend something knowing that in the UK prices are going to be higher substantially, but you should be building something alone these lines: Antec 182P Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R 2GB Crucial Ballistix DDR2 800 4-4-4-12 Q6600 Tuniq 120 Tower EVGA 8800 GTX 150GB Raptor 320GB...

    Battlefield 2 rig for around $800?

    :) If I was you I'd go with the original setup, and wait till november or so when the new 9 series midrange cards hit the market. They will be much more suitable for the DX10 games if you decide to play them. E6750+X1950XT I say.

    Battlefield 2 rig for around $800?

    Yes but the difference between 8800 GTS and X1950XT is $112, when the difference between the cpu's is $36. That will be well over $800. Besides, BF2 will fly on X1950XT :)

    Battlefield 2 rig for around $800?

    I was originally gonna do that but $800 is the max, before rebates and with shipping the cost is going to be more like $900. You could in theory go with E4300 + 8800 GTS but you'll need to overclock, otherwise 1.8Ghz will be a huge bottleneck.

    New PC Build... need advice

    Forgot to add, Q6600 is the way to go. There is no reason to miss out on extra 2 cores, especially considering that most upcoming games & software will utilize 4 cores fully.

    New PC Build... need advice

    MB:Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R is a better choice. PSU: Your pc won't nearly utilize this many watts, you should go with Corsair 520HX or 620HX, both are absolutely amazing in terms of build quality, power, reliability. Clubit.com currently has a nice deal on Corsair 620HX. You should get an Ultra...

    Trying to choose best Desktop system upgrade route

    First build is a lot better if you are willing to overclock, which is very simple when you have an E4300 and atleast some aftermarket cooling on your hands. By the way, Thermalright XP-90 is AMD only. It will not work with Intel cpu's. I suggest getting Freezer 7 Pro from directron.com for $20...

    Need Help on New Build!

    Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R + a kit like this one would be a great choice. Also 320MB of VRAM won't be enough to game at 1680x1050 resolution, which is default for your 22", you might wanna spend a little extra on 640MB version or get a GTX. Good luck.
