![]() just ordered going to use the case for something for now, HTPC blu-ray, tv tuner, 2gb ram, 780g + 3450 for hybrid crossfire, 2.7ghz kuma (will overclock) processor seems like a bit overkill at first, but its not much more than the cheaper dual cores, and the MPEG2 video capture on that card wants a 3.0ghz processor (probably single core anyhow) basically i made it as cheap as i could going to run this off the 850w + antec p182 for now LOL later when i put a real system in this, ill probly get a p180 mini and 430w basiq (but thats another $140-150 for now that i dont want to spend |

XP eh? Blah, it's so bland. Either way, this is a pretty sweet set-up for that price, especially the blu-ray. I'll definately have to take advantage of something similar to this for my own use in a few months. Spending four years in Oklahoma =/ gonna need a sweet rig. Planning on designing my own artwork for a case and hopefully there's some store in the city that'll put it on a case. |
