I don't know why he wouldn't overclock. Change 2 things in BIOS and your done. Maybe he just wasn't up-to-date on current tech and wanted to know what the best was.



As for the video cards, you can substitute anything you want in there. I'd take dual 6800GTs over a X850XT anyday.
yeah I dont really plan on overclocking. But if its as easy as it sounds then ill do it. I am also deciding whether to just buy the pc premade or buy the part and have someone else build it. My luck with building pcs isnt really the best out there. I tried to add in a wireless card into my Gateway and accidentally dropped the screwdriver i had in my hand onto the CPU. waranty somehow covered it. But I am going to price out the system I want so I can look for a job that can get me the money quickely. Thanks for the help

Actually I just got a new monitor today. 20 inch LCD TV monitor. Very good quality picture and all for 100 bucks. Thats not the standard price I just got it cheap from a rental company very slightly used.

Buying a premade one usually ends up with you taking it up the ass for a high price on cheap components. Better making it yourself or like you said getting someone with a clue to build it for you.
