New Computer - David's Build Log

So, I ordered the first piece of the new rig today. Has me excited so I figured I would post it up here for you guys.

Goals:
  • Run games as smooth as possible on Vista
  • Run Vista 64-bit, 8GB of RAM
  • Be able to run multiple monitors
  • Keep the budget around 2K
  • Quiet system, water-cooled, able to be overclocked

I will be re-using the following from my existing computer:
  • PCP&C 700W Power Supply
  • Plextor DVD Burner
  • 4x Seagate SATA 3G hard drives (will all become data drives)

Here is the new machine:

  • Gigabyte 3D Mercury pro (Water-cooled Case) Review
  • AMD Phenom 9950 BE
  • ASUS M3a32-MVP Motherboard (Can support up to 4 Video cards)
  • 2x VisionTek HD 4850
  • 4x 2GB Corsair 1066 Ram
  • Western Digital Velociraptor (new OS Drive)
  • LITEON Bluray burner
