Now it's my turn! New rig is finished!
Now first off no my machine cannot dominate Dan's machine (ya know the one with a fan the size a typical learjet's jet engine) and no it doesn't have 8 cores (Will) but I think I did pretty good with my budget. Newton 3.0 and Wiggins took me to Micro Center yesterday and I left with a box and two bags worth of components. So what am I using....??
Intel Media Series mother board with 1.3GHz FSB
Intel Core 2 Quad 9300 @ 2.5GHz
4GB of PC2 6400
nVidia EVGA geForce 9600 with 512MB of DDR3 RAM
700W PSU from OCZ Tech
Seagate 500GB HDD @ 7200rpm
After all this plus a case and a DVD drive it came to about $820
I think we all can agree that a machine like this from Dell or HP could cost at least $1600!
So Dan your machine still kicks ass! But I'm happy I can play WoW at the highest settings and get 60 fps
