actually this one is the v1200.. supports 12x13 (ETX) :D

I personally think it's all a waste of money but it's your decision. My only suggestion would be to replace that 6800 Ultra with an X800 XT PE or X850 XT as they're generally faster in a smaller pcb while drawing less power.

There are also other ways to decrease that cost such as getting a cheaper motherboard (do you really need a $240 motherboard?) as well as different ram; you are paying for the brand after all. But again, that's totally up to you.

Get the silver version of that case you got there V1000 or whatever that case KICKS ASS dont listen to anyone lol Coolermaster is cheaper rubbish, scrap the floppy drive because it is a downgrade, AND YOUR RIG LOOKS ****ING MAD :drool: :woot:

Yeah, I definitely wouldn't get all the parts from Newegg unless you REALLY want them all to arrive together or something. Shop around, see if you can't find deals and things of that nature. There definitely isn't any reason for you to get all the stuff from them unless you work there and get a commission on the stuff that you sell/buy.

I love how you AMD ###### keep coming up with computers that don't even match what the **** i'm configuring. :laugh:

Where the **** are the Raptors and the 250GB HDD i put in there or the TWIN Plextor Drives or the DDR2-5400 RAM (675MHZ)?

Your configurations are gay so unless your going to post something THAT MATCHES to a T my configuration, shut the **** up because I don't care.

I love how you get so offended that people try to help. You know posts like that are inevitable no matter what you say about non-AMD setups. :p

    • hands down the worst version of Windows to date and sadly I think it's only downhill from here
    • I've never known a release to have so much pressure than this one. There is so much riding on the whole games industry because of everything that's changed in the past five years. That if this is a complete flop then I think the whole games industry is done unless something radically changes.
    • Windows 11 is now five years old by Taras Buria Windows 11 is now half a decade old. Five years ago, on June 24, 2021, Microsoft announced its latest operating system, designed to "bring you closer to what you love." Today, Windows 11 celebrates its fifth birthday. The launch of Windows 11 was interesting. Rumors about Microsoft introducing a Windows 10 successor popped up weeks before the public announcement, and a few days later, an entire preview build leaked online, allowing everyone to take a peek at what Microsoft was preparing. A few weeks later, Microsoft confirmed that Windows 11 was a thing and officially unveiled its next-gen operating system. Early versions of Windows 11 promised quite a lot. A redesigned, more modern user interface, a brand new Start menu and taskbar, improvements to virtual desktops and window snapping, Android app support, Teams integrated into the taskbar, Windows Widgets, a new version of the Microsoft Store, improved security, and more. Some of those features were welcomed, while others were received with heavy criticism. Besides missing taskbar and Start menu features, many disliked the steep hardware requirements, which kicked out PCs that were back then still perfectly fine. TPM and Secure Boot became mandatory, causing a spike in sales of dedicated TPM chips for motherboards. Double-layered context menus were disliked as well, and it is something that Microsoft still has to fix. Additionally, with time, some of Windows 11's exclusive features were simply killed. Microsoft removed the Teams integration and discontinued Android app support. During the early days of Windows 11, Microsoft was quite unwilling to address things that users criticized most. After four years on the market, management changes, and heated competition from the Mac camp, Microsoft finally decided to give in and take its operating system back to the drawing board to fix everything users had been complaining about for years. Microsoft is now redesigning the Start menu, adding missing taskbar features, improving Windows Update, fixing Windows 11's context menu, and more. Some believe all that warrants a new Windows 12 release, but for now, it appears that Windows 11 will stick around for a while. With Microsoft now listening to its core audience and acting upon received feedback, fans can finally expect a much better version of Windows 11 than what was available five years ago. Here is to five more years, Windows 11!
