Oh well, this card was in my budget, I was going to buy a 6600gt but when i saw the X800, it had 4 extra pipes, so i bought it :) . And i think i made the right decesion

its a good card no doubt, but now you paid extra for a SLi motherboard, when you are gonna now have to buy two cards to take advantage of it, could have gone crossfire or nforce 4.

Re: My New rig- plz comment

Its a nice rig, but its flawed in many ways. First off all you have the creme de la creme of Nforce SLi motherboards, and you maited it with a 2 generation old ATI video card....

Also the ram is an off brand, not my first choice, esspecially with an overclocker enthusiast motherboard, makes little sense. Also for about $5-$10 more you could have gotten a 3200+ which would have been a better buy.

Great powersupply, but you way overbought on the motherboard, and got a horrible pick for a video card, poor value for the CPU and off brand ram.

Re: My New rig- plz comment

U know i can overclock to a 3200 right? and the RAM i got is 1 of the most popular around the world, but not in the USA. and the graphics card i got is serving me well. On the demo i got 70-80 frames.

70-80 frames on a server with how many people (this can affect fps GREATLY)? And also what settings are you on?

Re: My New rig- plz comment

personnaly i would of went with a different ram like OCZ platium and a definitely a different power supply OCZ 520W...
And if you know how to overclock get a AMD Opteron 148 its cheaper then the AMD 3000+ and can overclock like a FX-60..(y did you get a sli mobo when your getthing x800 get the 7800gt or 6800GS you will thank me after you get it!!)

Another thing, I hope you didnt get this CPU

Its a socket 754, not a 939, wont work in your DFI motherboard. You mention 1600mhz HTT, which is the speed of the s754 chips.

Re: My New rig- plz comment

Nah I am sure i got the socket 939 venice, i just checked my order. And the PSU i got is one of the top brands PSU out there. And the servers i play on are usually 64 players, sometimes i go on 32 if there are none on the 64 player servers.

There are socket 939 chips with 1600mhz HTT. Although that doesn't mean he got the right one.

The opteron 148 is in no way cheaper than the 3000+. What kind of crack are you smoking, the 148 is about $100 more. And you can't overclock the 148 like the FX-60 because the 148 is single core while the FX-60 is dual core.....

1600mhz HTT = 800mhz actual speed which is indicitive of a s754 CPU. All socket 939 are 2000mhz HTT or 1000mhz actual.

Wow, well I guess my friend just jammed a socket 754 chip into his Asus 939 pin motherboard.

No, all socket 939's are not 2000mhz. My friend has a Newcastle core 3400+ 2.4Ghz 1600mhz HTT 939 chip that he got from Tigerdirect in a CPU/Mobo bundle. They are very rare and I've only seen them sold by OEM's or in bundles. You are wrong.
