Finally, after 7 years, I have kissed my old P4 2 GHZ with 1 gig of ram and a 9600XT goodbye. It served me well but now it is time to upgrade....to THE MACHINE.
Intel Core 2 Quad 6600 2.4 Ghz, FSB 1066Mhz, 2x4 mb
ASUS Striker Extreme MBoard
4gb PC2-6400 (DDR2-800) 5-5-5-15 Dual Channel RAM
2 Dual Layer DVD Burners (don't know why but what the hell)
Sound Blaster X-Fi ExtremeGamer Fatal1ty Pro 7.1 Sound Card with on board RAM (since when did sound cards come with their own ram?!?!)
GeForce 8800GTX 768MB 384-bit DDR3
Thermaltake Armor Case with Liquid Cooling
750 Watt PSU
Logitech G7 Mouse and Keyboard
22" Monitor with 2ms delay
Windows Vista (64-bit....I think vista blows)
I get it next week (I'm letting the shop build it cos I'm lazy). I can't wait to put Warlords through its paces...and Half Life 2, and Battlefield 2142, and Medieval 2, and Doom 3, and FEAR....god I've missed a lot of gaming.
Is she powerful enough? If you don't think so, please follow the dotted line to the room that has 'firing squad' on the door
