Blitz Posted September 25, 2005 Posted September 25, 2005 As you can see by my sig, that my system is not too old. I will be giving that system to my wife, and building a new one for myself. I will be using this system for Gaming (Battlefield 2 and Delta Force Black Hawk Down) and also some 3D Cad applications and Office applications. The recommendations I am looking for are on the memory and CPU. And Possibly if you think I should use a different board. I have never used a DFI board in a build before, and I am going to look into overclocking this new one to see what it can do. As well as I am new to the overclocking area, but not new to building Pc’s. I am not an expert at all the bios setting either (Hell this forum is the reason I am purchasing a DFI board, besides all the good reviews) So if you could please take a minute to go over my wish list at newegg. And let me know your thoughts it would be appreciated. Please feel free to suggest something else that I have not listed either. Blitz's wish list The video card I will be using is the 7800GTX.
