PC specs (c/c)

Can't decide on a case... look pretty good to all of you guys?

I can't figure out what processor/video card to go with for 3D Rendering.

Changed the HDD.

Do not order from BuyXTreme gear, they are sold out on everything and will never tell you, back ordering you for a month. Stick to www.zipzoomfly.com and www.newegg.com

But the best processor deal is at http://www.mwave.com/mwave/ProdCPUBU...les+By+AMD+CPU

Go to the
AMD ATHLON 64 3500+ RETAILED 64-BIT BUNDLE W/ Details
and select the MSI K8N NEO 2 PLATINUM


Case: http://www.zipzoomfly.com/jsp/Produc...uctCode=144003
Or: http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProduc...133-124&depa=1


Card: http://www.newegg.com/app/viewproduc...130-203&DEPA=0

Stick to the Geforce 6800 GT, $100 less than the ultra but only a fraction slower


Don't bother with the raptor unless you're gonna get two and go Raid 0, otherwise it's not worth the $ for similarly good shit like a WD JD


And wtf are you doing with the RAM? You don't need higher bandwidth, you want lower latency. With an A64 all you need is PC 3200 basically. 3-4-4-8 is disgracefully slow. Get stuff with 2-2-2-5.

I have no idea about hardware, that's why I posted :)

Thanks, that was a very good post, Grav, appriciate it.

But you also need a new power supply to support all that. At least 420 watts.

I made a killer theoretical 3500+ system minus video card for $1200.

Alright.

Thanks :)... if I get straight A's the computer is mine, free, almost everything I want.

Fuck you, richer. Know what I get for straight A's? Food. Spoiled piece of kid.

Actually... I would say getting a x800pro from Gigabyte, with a flash, it acts exactly same as the XT, enabling all 16 pipes.

Spoiled rotten kid?

Ok.

I worked all summer to buy a car, and now I don't need a car, and I asked my parents if I could buy a computer... they suggested this:

Since computer is probably going to be my profession, they decided to invest in one if I tried this year.

I have 1200 dollars of my own hard earned money, don't tell me I'm spoiled, I didn't ask them for anything.

It's still free.

Here's my case: http://www.crazypc.com/Merchant2/mer...uct_Code=81481

Though mine is black, but they don't sell that one on there anymore. I have the blowhole window on top too.

So what grav?

I worked minimum wage all summer.

I'm not spoiled.

Minimum wage?! Hah! What a brat. I had to work with a group of 4 traveling Mexicans getting paid $6/hr. For the 5 of us. Good $1.20/hr shit.

Anyway, if you need more help then show respect to the Mexican Jesus.

Grav, do you like to make your life harder? I mean, why didn't you just work at a McDonald's or something...

Yeah, it's getting obvious that you're joking :)

Thanks for your contribution too, Mantra.

Because MCDonalds kills cats.

Extravagant(sp) excuse.

So does Bush, but you still live in his country... For another couple of months... Hopefully

Randuin, you should crop out the background and just have the guitar in your signature.
