I could build a pc that would rape that in gaming performance for 3500 ... hell i could build two

what else could you get better then whats in this machine?
|
for one, a better video card, then i would ditch the shitty 2gb ram and get good 1gb, as 2gb will show no performance difference, just cost more
i would get some good cooling and overclock the hell out of it.
I could build two PCs that would perform much, much better than that for that price. Its a good pc, you just got screwed on the price.....

for 1, you dont know what i do on my pc, so you have no idea that the 2 gigs of ram wont help, and the ram is pc3200 400mhz...the best that an AMD can support so i dont know what the hell your talking about. why would i throw away 2 gigs of ram for 1 gig? you retarted?
for 2, how many fucking times do i have to say it...the x800 xt will be mine as soon as it is available..did you not read the 5 times i've said it?
for 3, the cooling on it is as good as you can get without water cooling. fyi, i HAVE water cooling, just not installed on this pc and i am debating whether or not i should install it. you said you can build a better PC for this price...but yet i am still stumped on WHAT could you get better that will perform better???? you havent showed me anything that would perform better, except for the video card which i've already said i will be upgrading as soon as it is available. i suggest you read the whole thread.

because that ram is shitty
no modern apps even use 1gb, let alone 2
High quality 1gb for the same price would work faster, lower timings>senseless amounts I could get 1gb of Hyper X, XMS, Mush Lvl2 or Mush 222 that would perform better than 2gb of your shit for the same or less.
unless you plan to run 400 windows of PS, IE, and game at the same time your pissing away money.
Also how fucking dumb are you w/ the 3200 thing?
dude everyone here knows what im talking about but you, so im done w/ this.

you dont even know what kind of RAM i have, except for the fact that its Dual Channel. and as a matter of fact, i had 1 gig of ram in my old pc, and now with this amound of memory, i have noticed a shitload of improvement in games such as SWG. i used to get 5fps in there with my 9800, now i get 29fps almost constantly.
and maybe i havent learned as much about fucking memory as you have, i dont really care. and im sorry that you guys cannot afford this machine, but i can. if thats such a problem, then dont bother posting in my thread. if you think i pissed away money then again, thats your problem. as I DO NOT.
like i said, i dont really know everything about memory, because i dont sit at my computer all day reading shit. i have a life too. instead of being a fucking jackass and shitting on my thread, you could have either said "Nice system" or not even fucking posted here at all. last time i checked, it might have changed with the FX series, but with my old 2800+...the fastest memory it supported was PC3200, and that was with a little overclocking.
until you build 2 of these uber-pc's for $3500, you can just sit down and shut up, because im happy with this machine and all i can say is i couldn't ask for anything better, except for the video card. i have not noticed one bit of lag in anygame i've played on here so far, and thats with max graphics, max AA and AF. even on Far Cry, i dont noticed a bit of lag. if you dont like what i bought, then like i said, STFU. because i dont care, and when the time comes (not for a while I hope) i'll upgrade it to something that i wish.
