ok, overlooked the experience part...

still, with that big CPU you better be ready to get a big case for the CPU fan, and make sure that it doesnt block a ram slot, cause I had to change mobo's last time due to that.

those are the ones that fit your CPU (socket 775)

i think my case I'm getting should fit anything at 20.87" x 8.66" x 22.05" (H x W xD)

What my fraind said is that you don't atm need the 4 gb ram cause you can't use it yet. Sure you can buy vista but what game support vista.

I suggest using CyberPowerPC if you're looking for a new PC and want to save the trouble of having to build it yourself and the works.

I've had no problems with them.

anyways, it was good to get a good look at the new technology, but I'm definately waiting until at least october to buy one since you never know when there will be something new, and they usually wait until the end of the year to release the new technology.

So I've decided I will spend some of that money I've saved on a better chair and maybe even desk, also speakers couldn't hurt. I'm sure I could find these on my own too since there are so many stores that have them.

Don't let this discourage you though if you find an awesome deal on a chair, desk, or speaker system. I'd be more than happy to buy online if the deal was better and was fully refundable.

Just remember that I won't go past $300 for a chair, $200 for a desk, or $150 for a speaker system no matter how soft the cusions are, and no matter how much extra deskspace, or extra surround sound speakers/subwoofers it has.
