Compxpert Posted February 25, 2009 Posted February 25, 2009 http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/PublicWi...Number=14119027 Note the ram I already have. Well critique it for me.... Heck I wish it could be a bit cheaper.... Don't worry I plan to mod the soundcard later down the road too. If you got any suggestions for making it cheaper while still being good I'd like to hear them... I'm not backing off the mobo, proc, vidcards, case, or soundcard but anything else I could.

ccokeman Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 You can still get the processor at Microcenter for $229 I believe. Other than that not to bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IVIYTH0S Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 in store pickup only... I always want to recommend that to people, unless he has a microcenter store nearby. I don't have any around here. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compxpert Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) in store pickup only... I always want to recommend that to people, unless he has a microcenter store nearby. I don't have any around here. I'd have to drive to longisland. A good 3hr trip from where I'm at I think. Edit: make that 1hr 45min.... to Phili. not doing that. Can anyone else make recommendations or am I kinda stuck at that price? Edited February 26, 2009 by Compxpert Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone else make recommendations or am I kinda stuck at that price? I'd say so , unless you want to check out ebay where one is at $270.99, final price. (he has a high amount of sales and good feedback, so I see no problem in buying from him) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
uneedav8 Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 Hey Compxpert, which Mushkin DDR3 did you buy? Do they have them on Newegg? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Compxpert Posted February 26, 2009 Posted February 26, 2009 (edited) Hey Compxpert, which Mushkin DDR3 did you buy? Do they have them on Newegg? Didn't buy... I'm pretty sure I saw they have the kit i got.. 6gb (3x 2gb) HP3-12800. If you think about it OCC gave me part of my rig.

Compxpert Posted February 27, 2009 Posted February 27, 2009 (edited) I'm surprised no one said anything about my psu possibly being inadaquate. Only has 2 6-pin PCI-E connectors and its only 700W. I now realize its probably not gonna be enough. Can anyone recommend me a good PSU? IDC about price I just need something that will power this and then some.. maybe 800W to 1000W. I would like a modular PSU but it doesn't have to be. Edited February 27, 2009 by Compxpert Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would like a modular PSU but it doesn't have to be. what do you mean ONLY 700W, if it's a good manufacturer than you probably even have too much, i read that a 4ghz i7 920 and two 295s barely broke 600W at the plug (so factor the 80% efficiency in there and you have a good amount of head room there to play with) if you don't have it yet and want to be absolutely sure it will do everything then get a PC Power and Cooling 750W though the 610W should be adequate Edited February 27, 2009 by IVIYTH0S Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
