    @PurdueRy: I know, I know! D-: *is panicking!* @asdftt123: Stay in touch on this thread. I will post it up very soon. Maybe in a few minutes; however maybe in a few hours. (It's according to what my classes are like.) Thanks guys, and I'll post back soon enough. :-D

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    8steve8: Wow! Thanks a lot! I am mostly going to check out that 24". :-D Also...I am going with the Xeon. But I keep hearing from many persons that I should just go with the higher powered CPU, like a 3.0ghz duo or something. I don't think I will be disappointed, but I would like the...

    X3200/Q6600. That Question We've All Heard Before.

    @Mattz0r: Thank you for the links and the advice! I will make sure to read up on it. I have read the wikis and stuff, but nothing compares to a full-on guide. :-) @ChronoReverse: Alright, that sounds fine then. :-D Thanks for the input! @Markfw900: I think Mattz0r was simply...

    X3200/Q6600. That Question We've All Heard Before.

    @Mattz0r: Thanks for your reply! I have a question, which by your opinion is a fine answer (;-P): Do you -recommend-, as a 'first-timer with a nice PC', that I overclock; by which I would get the X3220? I have heard dangers in overclocking, the wear and tear; however I am completely new...

    X3200/Q6600. That Question We've All Heard Before.

    @ChronoReverse: Oh, I understand. Well, I found a X3220 for cheaper than any Q6600 that I have found...so I'll just stick with it. :-) Does anyone actually recommend the X3220 over all the other processors right now? Or is there something else out there that is better? Overclocking is...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @Piuc2020: I love how direct you are. xD You really make me feel like you know what you're talking about, and because of that, I trust you. :-P It makes sense that it would be of higher quality/more reliable, but I was just worried that it wasn't the best for gaming, or that it wouldn't...

    X3200/Q6600. That Question We've All Heard Before.

    @ChronoReverse: So... That means, pretty much, that the X3220 will just run hotter and need more power, for not much more performance? I heard the X3220 can overclock better. So, if I ever overclock, at least I will be prepared. Still, though, regarding performance for -gaming-, is a...

    X3200/Q6600. That Question We've All Heard Before.

    Greetings everyone, I'm currently building a new system, and have hit quite the roadblock, suddenly, in "what's better"-ness. The X3200 or the Q6600? Let's ask a series of questions to find out. "The Q6600 is the same as a X3220. The X3220 is considered server grade which might get you a...

    "Xeon's are meant for servers and work stations. Don't buy them for normal use. the 8mb L2 cache is only for L2. There is different cache for L1. For what processor I would choose the quad core because it can last longer but for now and the forseeable future the faster dual cores would be better...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @HarvardAce: A good point. And noted. Thus, if any "excess money" (Is there such a thing? Who am I? o.O) should most definitely go into a bigger monitor. Now, I'm not saying go all the way up to like 46" or something - certainly not. However, if I can get a 24", then I might as well...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @Mr Fox: Lol. "B.S. factor" -- well, at any rate I am glad that it is debunked! :-) And yes, I love doing my homework (really), but it's hard to learn about all of this massive knowledge base when you hardly know where to start. I think I've done pretty well over the past two weeks...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    Dah, I figured that. SLI is silly. :-P Yeah, and I will have DX10. *cheers* I just hope that, you know, it's not too bad. If I ~need~ a physics card I can always buy one sometime. :-)

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    Luckily I already know the guy I am rooming with. If he complains I can just rip out his throat...no complaining if there's no voice box! :-) Sorry, that was violent. :-| I still am 50/50 about getting a motherboard with SLI. It just seems to be "safer" if I just grabbed one with...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    Ah, that's a real shame on their openness, but at least that is better than if I were listening to my sound system. I'm sure my roommate won't have issues...if he does, I'll just force him to buy me some better, closed, ones. >:-) Thanks again, PurdueRy. EDIT: Physics cards. Hm. :-|...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    The New Netu's Cube: Total: $2480.84 Total After Rebates: $2368.34 So, how's it look? :-) I love it. I think this machine is near perfection, if that is at all possible. However, I'd love for someone to come and kick me in the throat so I spit up all this perfection... Other...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    Whoooa. :-o That's -nice-. I will most definitely keep the Claro Plus, I'd be silly if I didn't. :-) Also, just -wow- at those headphones. I read some reviews, and they are like the 3rd best out that I have seen. That is, if you like Grados or not; I personally don't think I'd want...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @Piuc2020: If I could somehow afford the NEC monitor, I would get it; instead I am most definitely getting the Acer. Thanks a lot for showing me that great model. :-) People really seem to like it. Also, it matches well with my case and keyboard, which is a plus. ;-P Some recommended...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @PurdueRy: Sounds perfect. :-) I'll keep the P35, then. It's a good board, and it should be able to do everything I need - especially overclocking, if I ever get around to doing it. >:-D Thanks, and if anyone knows of any good monitors, feel free to post. Also, I'm still all ears for...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @PurdueRy: Read and responded to. Thank you for that "essay" as it was so coined. ;-P That was a -lot- of information, but I really think that has cleared up a lot of issues. My only current issues are my monitor and my motherboard. I would like a motherboard that will be good for a few...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @Piuc2020: As always, thanks for the input! I completely agree with you regarding Vista. Right now it's just much smarter to with 32-bit. :-) What about the other things 8steve8 has said though, everyone? I would like other viewpoints as well. Such as, is 4gigs of RAM necessary...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    How about this monitor? How about this RAM? I think it looks fine, no? Also, I am not going to change motherboards and drop that sound card until I get empirical data saying that they, the audio card and the sound system, will not cooperate together. ;-) I have to be extremely...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    Hm, yeah, it does. I suppose it ~can~ overclock, right? :-P

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    I think I am going to go with the two mushkin 1.8v. I'll get two two's, so I get 4gigs. :-) I still can't decide on a monitor. I think I'll have to research that more thoroughly before I do. Motherboard. ...Ack... I am so up in the air about that right now I just have no idea. It has...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    Alright. I'll upgrade to 4gigs of RAM. I guess it couldn't hurt more than it'd help. ;-P I hope, at least! I still am up in the air regarding the sound card and such. I understand both of your guys' logics, but I still don't see either side being fully correct in either accusation...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @8steve8: Why 4gigs of RAM? Is that really necessary, you think? :-o Thanks for all the input, by the way. :-D Edit: 8steve8, the link you posted isn't working. I believe this is what you were trying to link? :-P

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @8steve8: You have excellent points regarding the 64-bit version of Vista... -Really- good points, actually. I will browse some sites, etc., and come back to you with a rebuttal, if I have any; perhaps I will just accept your statements as truth and get 64-bit instead. ;-P That'd be easier...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    Hmm... You guys are arguing a lot "off hand". While I do not doubt either of your guys' knowledge base, would it not be better to cite sources, etc., as it were? That way the audience (mainly me! :-P) could see what you are talking about and supplement it into their own thoughts. Mainly, so...

    Some weird error caused me to double post. Ignore this. (If possible, I will delete it...if I can figure out how...o_O)

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @8steve8: I will be getting 4gigs of that RAM then! I will also drop the audio card...BUT, I need a good replacement for my motherboard since it doesn't meet standards. The motherboards -has- to overclock and have a good enough on board audio card... I know that's picky, but that's the price...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @8steve8: Again, I'll focus on your reply in separate paragraphs for neatness: No no, you didn't receive "flack", don't say that, at least from me. Like I've always said, I appreciate input--more so, I appreciate backed-up input. I think you have backed up your case quite well, honestly...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @PurdueRy: I, too, have heard of the fantastic abilities of the Micron D9 chips. I agree about the heatsink. I think it'd be silly to go without it, especially at that price. :-) Hopefully the deal will last long enough so I can grab it! :-D So, all in all, I should keep everything the...

    Check my build for new computer!

    I think the system is fine...and sorry about that silly mis-read there! Believe it or not though, I bet WC3 and DAoC have similar system requirements! xD; This system will be fine, and will last you the few years you want it to. It won't and never will be top of the line, like you...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @PurdueRy: Quieter is better. Cooler is better. Plus, it's -cheap-. But, if I can save 30 bucks, I'd like to save 30 bucks. Then again, I don't like the sound of buzzes and fans...so I'd easily and happily pay the $30 to get rid of the sound. :-) Something I have been considering for a...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @PurdueRy: As always, thanks. I'll keep my eyes pealed and keep researching some headsets. :-) @8steve8: Wow, you sure did type a lot. That is a good thing, though! Let's stir up the pot a bit, no? :-P OK, I am going to take your post piece by piece, to make it easier on the eyes...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @PurdueRy: Holy crap! O_O Those are...Wow! That is quite the price jump...but I am just unsure if it is worth it. That website doesn't exactly give a lot of details, but I am looking more up now. Maybe a better headset is indeed an option I should consider. :-) P.S. Interesting...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @PurdueRy: Then I think we're decided! Now it's just time to wait... However, if anyone still has any advice, or changes to be made to my current rig, have at me. If you don't like the way something even -looks- (i.e. the case, for example), go ahead and tell me. :-P I appreciate any...

    I have a $2,500US budget.

    @PurdueRy: I read the review on the 555's. They are open, but they are good for their price--real good, at that. I will get them, I think. The only problem, I've decided, is that I am probably going to use my headphones quite a lot, and I'd like them to be...well...better. I'd actually...
