I posted this on boards.ie... said id post here tell me what you think!

So ive been researching researching researching and have come down to the following parts for my 1st ever self build and im quite happy with it!

I want to get all your opinions on this now and let me know what you think as a gaming PC! Im pretty sure myself that it will run the games I play but I decided to get more opinions from you guys cause thats what your hear for like

I was really stuck which to choose between the 8800 GTS 320 or 640MB im going with the 320 because of my monitor id say it will handle the res!

Anyways... the games I play are BF2 HL2(series) CS:S CS 1.6
I have a 19" widescreen LCD 1440 X 900

You mean 2 GTS's and a GTX?


Hey winters ive tried that route... Want to point me in a direction where I could find a good one all I need really is the serial I have an xp disc I tried to use an xp code an old computer but it said its exceeded it use limit or some crap! I really dont want to spend ?90 on something like that!

[[TiG]Lucutus]

aye, surely better to get two cards in an SLI board?

nice rig.

[[TiG]FlippingFlipper]

Thats what I plan on doing after time to add another card to it and more ram... it would beat a GTX but at the moment I have barely enough for this lol having to sell loads of my stuff!
