jammin Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 (edited) Good luck. As for the question, it's basically a case of building the best machine you can right now (which would be Intel, the graphics could go either way.. probably on the green side). Unfortunately even if you build a killer system now, in 6 years it's going to be left in the dust. That is the price we pay for the speed of new developments I'm afraid.

road-runner Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 You need to change that from 6 years to 6 months the way technology moves. Anyway Intel and ATI... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow47 Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 (edited) What is your price range? If you're trying to build something that will last six years, you'll have to spend quite a lot. Edited June 9, 2008 by Crow47 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silverfox Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 How has your ex GF left you high and dry? If she's taken anything of yours, it's theft. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
My_Inner_Fred Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Dam she destroyed your TV and Rig?!?! I would be pissed if anybody put a scratch on my 50" tvs screen... Well anyway I'd say Intel and Nvidia. If you havent had much luck with Nvidia do remeber you can always ask us guys at OCC for help like what i alwasy do. (lol) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did she know what she was doing when she tore up your house? To my opinion i think getting a Duo Core Gpu would be better than getting Sli, Just an opinion.

SMeeD Posted June 9, 2008 Posted June 9, 2008 Would it be smarter to build a decent rig now and another decent rig in 3 years? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
