szlash280z Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 I finally got all the components for my new super computer today. I have a fresh install of windows xp pro going on, with my new DFI lanparty UT sli expert, Athlon64 X2 3800+, 2 gigs of ocz pc4000 and 7900GT card. Other than me having some issues with the LAN and not having everything installed yet, I can already tell that the 'puter is FASTER than anything I have ever personally used. Neat!

Sorrento Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Keep an eye on the little Enermax psu if you do overclock the cpu and/or video card. I am not sure but, does that EG565P-VE comes with the 8pin 12v connector required by the Expert??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
szlash280z Posted August 2, 2006 Posted August 2, 2006 Yes, it has the 8 pin connector on it. and it has dual pci express connectors. it says nvidia sli certified, so hopefully it'll be alright. Price was right, and I don't have a second PCI express card yet. This thing is nice! I had other programs running at the time, but I got over a 10,000 point increase in my 3DMark03 score over my overclocked AthlonXP 2800+ with Geforce 6600GT card also overclocked. I can't wait to play some new games with the options turned all the way up! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sorrento Posted August 3, 2006 Posted August 3, 2006 The diference between the old Athlons and a new dual core AMD64 is huge... and the 7900GT is not small at all: it is as fast as a 7800GTX Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welcome and congrats on the new rig. You should see a great improvement in your games. It actually is an entirely different experience when using a great rig.
