What do you think of my first build?
GymJunkie replied to GymJunkie's topic in Computer Talk - News, technology, advice
Yea I was thinking about that but I know I cant wait till october, already been waiting a very long time to be able to play anything new. I will most likely stick with the 6850, for now at least. I could always sell it later when I get more cash for something better. Thanks a lot for the suggestions. If you read he has 2 x 4gb which is 8gb... Also, like others have said, try to get a PSU from a more reputable company as it's something you do not want to skimp out on, considering it can be the one thing that makes or breaks the system. I havent heard much about Ultra except that this particular psu is an extremely good buy (really good reviews). Very glad they steered me this way because I WAS looking at Kingwin and Rosewill till I heard they were pretty bad. I guess we will find out in a week or so if handles decently enough..STILL waiting on the ram to arrive tho, then gonna order the gpu on thursday. EDIT: Something I might want to add, the ram is dual channel, not separately bought. -

Well I certainly like the price. The numbers are higher on everything but since Idk anything about GPUs all I can do is assume that means its better in all ways, am I right? Specs on both -

Only problem with both those suggestions is I wanted to buy the card this payday so I could start playing my games and I cant afford a $320+ card atm and the 460 appears to be more than required for my games. If you have another suggestion, nVidia or ATI (really dont care), for $180 or lower please feel free to suggest them. Highly prefer around $150 tho -

I am going to be gaming so OCing will be something Ill eventually do. And I think I found the GPU I want as well, has some really high reviews by dozens of different people on 6 sites, Im thinking Im getting a GTX 460 for now, eventually go with two. -

GymJunkie replied to manofthehour's topic in Computer Talk - News, technology, advice
Have you tried overclock.net yet? I dont like pointing towards a different website but its a great one for just comps, specifically overclocking, obviously. -
SO I finally saved enuf money to build a computer to replace my old POS.

damn, aight well thanks guys -
Ive always been under the impression that "9 sq feet" meant a sheet of material 9 feet long by 9 feet wide but Ive ordered stuff from other online shops before and it came as 9 feet by 1 foot so I need to know how Second Skin measure their products. Mainly looking at their Damplifier Pro and Overkill Pro
