Re: Building my new computer!
Thought I'd share and get a few pointers, if I'm missing some, this will mainly be used for intensive gfx editing and video editing and general stuff including games here and there.
Here are the specs of what I'm getting:
Mobo: Gigabyte PC35-DS3R DDR2 + DDR3 ready, up to 8gb support Bluray-HD audio output Cap 1333 FSB
CPU: Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4ghz, 1066 Bus, 4mb per core cache
RAM: Crucial Ballistix 1066mhz, 2gig
HDD: Western Digital 500gb, 7200rpm, 16mb
VIDEO CARD: xfx nvidia gForce 8800 GT, 512mb, 670mhz,
MONITOR: Acer 24" LCD panel, 1920x1200, HDCP ready, 5ms
the rest is general LG drive, keyboard mouse etc etc.
Really excited, and cant wait to get the parts together,
its costing me around 1300, all together!
Any particular reason for going with a board which supports both memory DDR2 and DDR3.? cuz u will just be able to have 2 slots for each memory and i don't think u can run both simultaneously...
