I'll second that.

Thanks for clarifying Spring, I was starting to get nervous...

I just ordered about 650 bucks worth of hardware from newegg; DFI LanParty UT Ultra-D Mobo OCZ 520w Modstream PSU WD Raptor 74GB HDD Creative X-Fi Xtreme Music Sound Card Windows XP Home w/ SP2 and a Belkin PC tool kit Will I get all of these items new and factory sealed or is it possible that they could send me an item that someone else returned? If I do get someone elses RMA can I send it back for a new item? Thanks.

Hey thanks everyone...the side by side thing helped alot, I also read some other stuff and I have decided to just go with Home.

Hmmm. I don't rightly know actually...I'm putting the purchase of for a day. I'll decide on Saturday.

What games have you played with it? Do you play CS 1.6 or DoD, how many FPS do you generally get?

Thanks d00d but I'm going with the pro eddition.

I would get XP64 but I don't want to go throught the hasle of downloading drivers and dealing with all the bugs it has.

Can you please post pics...I need a cheap AGP video card for my back-up system. You live in Mass so I'm seriously considering this.

You could probably OC you're XFX 7800GTX's to those speeds if you had proper cooling.

Well I'll have this machine running before the end of the month so I need an OS disk right now, I don't want to deal with all the XP64 issues either but thanks anyway.

Right then...I'm going pro :cool: , I thought Vista was coming out this December.

Yeah thats what I'm leaning toward at the moment...but with Windows XP Pro you get better performance in gaming or something I think, IDK. What OS do you use personaly?

OK I'm buying the OS for my upcoming build today and need some advice... should I get windows XP Pro or Home edition? This rig is going to be used for gaming and web browsing, nothing else. Should I save myself 60 bucks and go with the Home Edition? I'm going to be upgrading to Windows Vista when it comes out so is Pro worth it? Thanks.

I agree. Lian-Li cases are pretty ugly, alot of them are over-priced and the name 'Lian-Li' is just annoying, I hate it. Just my opinion...
