Building a new computer

[Jognt]

consider waiting a bit longer for the ATi\'s...
- ~12% Faster than 8800GTX
- ~12% smaller than 8800GTX
- ~12% more power needed than 8800GTX (oh wait, that isn\'t positive is it?)

I\'ve been checking that PSU you\'re planning on getting...
+12V 1 (? 5%) 1.0A - 20A
+12V 2 (? 5%) 1.0A - 18A

those aren\'t a lot of amps.. for the same price you should check if you can get a CoolerMaster iGreen 500w.. i got that one, 3 12v rails, just about 55-60 amps.. now that\'s power

Judging by the date of your last post, you may have already purchased it though.. in this case, i\'d run 3DMark06 a couple of times, and use a multimeter to check the 12v line on both the normal Molex connectors and if you\'ve got a steady hand (very important to avoid short-circuit) check the 12v on the PCI-e line..

other than that.. looks nice, the case is standard-ish, though it is of good quality for it\'s price..

Btw, again, i\'d really wait for the new ATi\'s... i\'ve got a x1950XTX atm, but as soon as the new cards are released (and after the 2nd price drop, im guessing 2 weeks after release) im getting a new one ^-^
