Spoiled brat i earned every penny that goes into my car and pcs. Btw, AMD sucks ass, at least my opinion anyway. I dont use my pc for just gaming. I produce huge videos and write massive software (10,000+ lines) Also you forgot SATA, and DDR2 memory. I still doubt thats gonna get better FPS in doom 3, even with SLI. Yep no case is right, what are you going to run it out of, a plain white tower? BIG difference in 1GB -> 2GB too bro.

Also dont forget to save your money for a car soon, lmao.

Btw, A for Effort. Goodnight

Hey, funny, you don't seem to realize that SATA has almost no perfomance benifit over PATA seeing as how you can barely fill ATA-133 with the data coming from the harddrive, and not to mention I do have a Raptor included in the configuration.

So you put every penny into your car and pcs eh? How much do you make an our? Like $50? Seeing as how you're less than a year older than me I can hardly see you making the over $7,000 that would be necessary to purchase what you have. If you didn't notice, I included a 20" Dell Ultrasharp LCD, assuming I turned around on Ebay and sold it for $700 would then have another $150 to work with. I could easily continue repeating this process until I had a lot of money. If I decided I wanted to spend all my $3,000 on Ultrasharps and turn around and sell them on Ebay I could, then I'd have a hell of a lot more to spend. But that's besides the point. Had I included a smaller monitor I could have saved some money, as such I could easily turned around and bought another 1gb of ram. DDR2 currently has almost no performance benifits over normal DDR. I also could have easily gone with one 6800 ultra and saved myself evenmore. As I already said, there's over $100 left for a case.

And goodnight to you too.
