Sarissi Posted November 11, 2004 Report Share Posted November 11, 2004 I sure know that feeling about all fumds being tapped, since I bought some things for my computer this month. Case: Sidewinder XG w/400 watt PSU + extra case fans Logitech Cordless MX Duo Wego aluminum USB 2.0 enclosure for my NEC ND2500A Debian 3.0 R3 9 CD set SuSE Pro (most current) I still need to get a monitor, a pair of 200 GB hdds, and have a desk built for the second computer. I am now thinking of at least getting a mobo/Athlon 64 combo from Monarch, and acquiring the parts for an additional system for playing with various linux distros. Does it ever end? (sigh) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jlc Posted November 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 damn you FX, Just bought a BFG 6800GT OC'd 256MB DDR3 blah blah blah card. Best Buy was actually cheaper today than New Egg. I've got several things sold already and looking at selling my xp-2500 box to a guy at work to pay my way to a 19" LCD My wife is happy, I've sold 3 systems in the last week and maybe some more to slim down and just well slim down :) All I got to say is I think this box is just going to rock /me thinks of the problems he might have with 64bit Linux and sata drives, but oh well.

jlc Posted November 12, 2004 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2004 http://www.bfgtech.com/6800GTOC.html That's the one, were everyone in the world said just rocks. Looking at benchmarks and stats and the Ultra's price doesn't justify the few fps you get :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
