stealthmonkey Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 should of gone SLI bridge and an AMD chip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemosley01 Posted July 23, 2006 Report Share Posted July 23, 2006 Good setup, but I would have gone with a Pentium D805 and overclocked the sucker. The nice thing is now computers will actually last longer than 1 year. You should be able to get several years out of it, provided you don't just like to spend money on computer parts.
