Right now:
AMD 1800+ @ 1.53 ghz
3x crappy ddr1 256MB
Sapphire Radeon 9600 Atlantis
Crappy Trust mouse
Crappy, itchy, defunct Trust headset

In a couple of days:
AMD Athlon 3500+
2x Dual Channel 512MB
2x Asus N6600GT
Über leet (altho somewhat geeky) Razer Diamondback
Not sure, about the headset. Any advice on that one?

Change of plan. I decided to not get an SLI-system (= double N6600GT's) coz it's too expensive for what it offers. I'm shelling out 40 euro's extra and getting a X850XT in stead. Seems like a good choice.

How Much does that all cost?

I thought there was a major difference between a X800 and a X850

Any ideas on a Good PSU? and also how hot would the 6800gt get, becuase I already have a problem of a hot motherboard

Antec, OCZ, Tagan and enermax are good brands.

for heating problem get a NV silencer and put it on 6800GT, silent and it pushs hot air out off case, so it cools your GPU and whole case.

x800XL is same as x800XT , they all have 16 pipes, XL is only little downclocked on memory.

X800 and pro is crap, only 12 pipes.

I've looked long and hard for a X800XL but they're totally sold out over here in Amsterdam. That X850XT looks pretty sweet and it's about the best card of this generation.

For a safe bet go for anything by Antec. You might have a problem with the heat issue, as the 6800 range kick out a fair bit of heat. You might need a few more case fans if it really is a problem. As you can tell, it does all add up unfortunately.

How many watts any I looking for?

for your system and 6800GT go for 480W and up.

Nabobalis · May 25, 2005

Could I use this as a card cooler instead? Or buy the other one?

you better go for Arctic Cooling NV Silencer 5 , it takes your hot air out off a case.
http://www.overclockers.co.uk/acatalog/Arctic_Cooling.html

Tagan PSU is good.

Nabobalis · May 25, 2005

Anyone know where I can get a antistatic band?

I'm not upgrading for BF2, but it will help off course. And besides, it won't blow. I'm pretty sure about that.

CptStern · May 25, 2005

that's what I thought about bfV

Well having played it myself, I can say that if one loved BF1942, then they'll absolutely love BF2. Many game sites have played it and all of them have praised it. It looks to be a very, very solid game that will please all BF players. :thumbs:

yeah i know, i was joking but ever since the brothers in arms reviews i take them all with some skepticism.

You've got a point there. But again, I've already played BF2 and it was awesome. I came away from E3 salivating over the very thought of playing more.

NikolaX · May 25, 2005

you dont belive RICO's review, you should be banned from TBF2 forever !

Very nice PC's Guys a few need to upgrade but most of you will play this game on high

Axyon · May 25, 2005

The x800 Pro is far from crappy, jeeze.

I know he was only kidding, Hl2 is probably the best game out there graphically, and i easily get 170+ FPS indoor and 70+ outdoor which IMO is pretty AWSOME

Alan Freeman · May 25, 2005
