I should be ordering this system this week. What do you guys think? Several of you have influenced my decisions in this so hopefully you can take some pride in that. I haven't been in here for several weeks, I've been working 65 hours/week at work. Bits and pieces: Case: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16811119077 PSU: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16817103931 Mobo: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16813131540 CPU: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16819103539 Vid Card: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16814130247 RAM: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16820227210 HD: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16822144701 DVD/CD ROM: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16827131417 DVD/CD Burner: http://www.newegg.com/product/product.asp?item=N82E16827152055 I may bump up to Dual Core but it would only be the +3800 @ 2.0Ghz for $70 more. I'm still undecided on that... 2.2Ghz single or 2.0Ghz dual?? I also may bump the HD up to more memory. Any thoughts or suggestions?
If you are looking to trim some cash from the system, you could save about $45 by going with the plain A8N-SLI, which runs for $122. It lacks the larger accessory package and heatpipe cooling of the Premium model, but otherwise, it's the same motherboard. If you want some more HD space, then you should be able to snag a 400GB drive between $200-300, with several, being under $250. Looks pretty good otherwise.
