oddcrap Posted August 23, 2005 Author Share Posted August 23, 2005 have fun with it all oddcrap :D Take your time putting it all together. My current primary rig took me about 2-3 days but I had to wait for CCFLs and other lights. It will be sweeeet setup for youI'm droooling and everyone here at work is wondering why lol. So when you're done building, and then l3thal, I guess it will be my turn lol. My PC is going to be on order sometime next month and it's going to be almost similar to your setup (nice choice of hardware I have to say) 586419816[/snapback] Yup, and I thank everyone here at Neowin for recommending me the top-notch stuff. :) If it wasn't for you guys, I just don't know.. thanks everyone! Most all people had a contribution to me buying something that I did :rofl: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raikou Tch Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 It really shouldn't take DAYS to put it together. My comp in my sig was my first build and I did it in about 4 hours. That was also including troubles with the motherboard/case installation. It should be easy for you. :) If you need any help I can try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

L3thal Veteran Posted August 23, 2005 Veteran Share Posted August 23, 2005 I am quite mad right now. Fedex shipped all of my parts except my case, which they said will ship tomorrow. I mean, come on, that's like selling someone a car today and telling them to pick up the engine tomorrow. I can't believe they're torturing me like this :cry: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just 4 weeks left to finish my summer job. 3 months the whole summer! And yeah, it's not that hard! I've already bought an ipod but I want to save the rest of the money. I may need a laptop for university in the near future ;-) But I'd leave university just to have that computer!! OMGOSH!! ;-) Congrats on it! It's better when you buy it with ur own money, innit?

Yvo Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Say what ever you say.. but if you spend $2500 on a system you should spend the $50 on pro. Also it does a little bit more then "advanced security features". XP Home is crippled compared to Pro. Not to mention that Pro includes Remote Desktop Connection, which anyone knows is 5x better then VNC. Oh and while Home has software support for 2 procs... its a hack. Pro still handles it better (google it if you don't believe me) http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/home/ho.../choosing2.mspx is another link. So again.. nice hardware its just you really cheaped out on the software and it probably was one of the cheapest things too (even if you had gotten pro).

Tobeman Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 What made you get such an old school case if your spending that much? I have one, damn 80mm fans :angry: Im have half my bits for my new PC currently, bought my Akasa Eclipse 62 case. Not as "cool" looking as my Coolermaster Wavemaster but so much more sophisticated and swarve :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MiG- Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 the only things wrong with that system r the outdated case with 80mm fans, and the fact u are using xp home. XP pro is the only offical os to support dual core cpus in the home sector, so i think u made a ###### up there but if stuff still runs as fast then i dont see the point.

laz Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Can that 480W Neopower handle all of those other components??? 586418211[/snapback] Yeah, but one other power hungry component may put it over the top. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
faraway. Posted August 23, 2005 Share Posted August 23, 2005 Yeah, but one other power hungry component may put it over the top. 586422137[/snapback] So if he put let's say.....another 7800GTX for SLI..it would be too much for the Antec Neopower?
