really, case is a personal preference, but I put that one in primarily because of the good cooling and massive room for expansion. Its huge, and since it has 9 fan brackets, your parts will stay nice and cool. Even though you didnt ask for a monitor, This one would be good, and if you decide on new drives a pair of these would be good.

Here you go, the best gaming computer on this side of 10,000$: Case: Here Hard drive: Here Graphics card: Here Power supply: Here Memory (2 sets, for 4 gb): here Motherboard: Here Processor: Here Windows vista: here Heatsink: Here now someone just offered me free food, so i have to go, but in an hour or so ill be back to explain all of these choices. oh and keyboard/ mouse Here

great then, gimmie a min, the price point of around 2000$ is a good one for gaming desktops.

so a new tower and keyboard/mouse then? do you need a monitor?

5000$? try 14,000$ Here One thing we can both do well is spend money, level 99 money spending :lol:

really with a good compatible list of parts, building a computer is easy. If you don't already know, This series of videos will cover pretty much everything you need to do to build a computer. As far as the processor, the ghz wars are over. The focus is on efficiency now, not speed. As far as the processors listed, the more expensive one has an unlocked multiplier, a setting used to overclock the processor more easily, and 2 extra cores. Essentially its just 2 of the other processors you mentioned stuck on one chip with all the "limiters" taken out. Even then, that processor is a ripoff, however, as This processor is physically identical, in fact the processors are built on the same assembly line. The only difference is a software setting intel puts on the processor to create a product line. When overclocked, which is fairly easy with a good motherboard, that processor can perform within 1% of the performance of the other one...... for 1200$ less. As far as compatibility goes, just match up the part specs (ie ddr2 memory will only go on a ddr2 motherboard) and you should be fine. As far as heatsinks, the current generation of processors runs MUCH cooler then the Pentium 4's did, so on stock settings or even a mild overclock, the stock heatsinks that come with the processor will do fine. As far as watercooling goes, unless your budget is at least ~3000$ or so, there is no reason you should need it. Like I said before, heat is NOT a major limiting factor right now, so unless your planning on overclocking the HELL out of your system, a 400$ watercooling system is not necessary. Power supplies: power supplies are interesting. You can get them rated between 300 and 1600 watts, and yet for most systems a good stable brand of power supplies rated at 700 watts or so will do great. Again, unless you are planning on putting in multiple graphics cards, powering big RAID arrays, or are overclocking like crazy, anything over 700-800 watts os a waste. FSB means front side bus, the connection system your processor uses to communicate with the rest of the computer. On processors without an unlocked multiplier, changing the FSB mhz rating is the only way to overclock the processor. As far as picking out parts, Me and a few other people on this forum have some knowlage on what brands are reliable etc, so if you would give us a budget we could give you a list of good parts.

is there any particular reason you don't want to reuse your drive? its probably the easiest way to save money. Anyway, heres a quick list I made from some parts on newegg. The rest of the people here can help you refine the list. Mobo: Evga 680i This motherboard uses a nice powerful chipset, and is good if you plan on ever adding a second video card for sli'ing the cards. otherwise, I would go with this motherboard. It is slightly slower and only supports 1 video card, but is 50$ cheaper. Both are good overclockers. At your price point, I would recommend the 650i chipset board. processor: Core 2 duo allendale 1.8 ghz Again, relatively inexpensive, and a great overclocker memory: corsair 2 gbs fast, cheap good timings and 2gbs, the sweet spot right now. power supply: Thermaltake 550 watts thermaltake is known for well built, stable power supplies. this one should work well. hard drive: westeren digital 320gb Fast, cheap and spacious. If you really want a new dvd drive this one here would work well, but it will put you slightly over budget. Graphics card: you really have two options here. Either you can go with better dx9 performance for games currently out, which would be good for this card Here, or you could go with something that is slightly less powerful in dx9, but is more powerful in future dx10 games. This card Here would be better for that. Personally, I would go with the 8600 gts, but many people here on these forums are partial to the 7900 gs, so meh. windows vista: Here Not much to say about this, windows vista is the only OS which supports dx10, and is thus the only one useful for future gaming. The oem copy is the same as the retail at half the price the total for all of this comes to 773$ before 50$ or so worth of mail in rebates, which is plenty to pick out a good case. The case itself should be more of a personal choice, based on which one you think looks better, but in general look for at least 2, reccomended 3 fans and generally good reviews on Newegg.

It depends on what you are doing. the more commonly autoed/ more repetitive the task, the more likely a random will come up.

hmmm, they wont attack me either, and ive tried multiple combos of different types of green colored robes.

Me: cute kitty.

that is toolbar 5.0. he is looking for 2.0

one kid did bully me for awhile last year (7th grade) for around a month or two, but twards the end he stole about 250$ worth of schoolbooks from my bag on the way to school. I told the principal and had some witnesses, so they searched his bag and not only found the books, but a large combat knife. He was expelled for that and a number of other things (he had been suspended more then a few times before this) and this year, I was told he had to switch school districts. That was the last of my problems with bullies.

the difference in compatibility and performance in negligible. The biggest difference is that 32 bit operating systems can only handle a maximum of 3gb of memory, while a 64 bit os can handle some crazy number, like 16 trillion gb or something. The days of crappy compatibility, from xp 64 bit, when 64 bit was only designed for high end intanium workstations is over. The only applications that have major compatibility issues are really old hardware (win95 era) and viruses. Bottom line, get 64 bit. Most reports of poor compatability refer to xp 64 bit, designed for high end intel intanium workstations. Here is a link that explains all this.

s nipefrsas better then most.

generally yes they will sound better. I bought a pair of bose earbuds to replace the earphones on my ipod. The new ones sound much better then the standard Ipod ones on both my laptop and ipod. Sound quality is generally limited by the headphones, and not the sound card. The biggest difference is the base. Pretty much all sound cards output base, but a good set aof headphones will produce the sound much better.

why bump month old topics?

it would be like the central bank's loan rates. Imagine: The central bank of runescape has announced, to curb deflation of the dragon square shield, a price increase of 100k in their buyback rate has been announced. No word yet on how long this will last. lol, that would be interesting. It would add an interesting dynamic to the game. I would support it.

xmen, it matches my desktop and firefox.

I have no idea where the idea that saddam had no wmd's came from. http://youtube.com/watch?v=1IXdwZjrF8M he had no nuclear weapons, but it was pretty clear that he had chemical weapons. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halabja_poison_gas_attack

aol 2.0 is much older then 7 years, more like 13

test 1 I was a mew, test number 2 I was a mewtwo.

Almost all of them will. It depends on the shop as to how much they charge, but you can expect about $100 or 60 or so euros to have them put it together. If your not sure about building a computer, just search around the internet for a tutorial. Its easier then you might think. This series of videos are good, and show you every thing you need to do to build a computer. As far as picking computer components, we would be happy to help you pick out a good computer part configuration.

Well, I went to Europe for 2 weeks in July, and i'm leaving for a week to go to Canada to Toronto and Niagara falls.

well it depends on if you only want to buy one or if you are willing to build one. Building a computer isn't that hard, and you can get quite a bit more value out of your system by building it, through overclocking and just plain cheaper parts. Its hard to pin exactly what kind of specs would be good for a "good" computer, because it would be kind of difficult to price out the parts on a prebuilt computer to fit a budget. Computer manufacturers offer different prices for the same thing based on country, region and even things like what part of their website you bought it from. If you will build your own computer, it simplify things quite a bit. As far as parts, I would put the minimum processor as one labeled as a "core 2 duo" and a graphics card as either a 7900gs or 8600 or above.

they said they have at least 2 days worth of water and air, which is plenty for rescuers to get them out, assuming there isn't another cave in.
