| Apex Tech God  | Re: New build Check out this thread as it's geared exactly for you--make sure you read the updated list. As for recomending a card I really like Palit's 9600GT Sonic edition because of the HDMI and displayport connectors. EVGA's SSC edition is also really nice as it's clocked way higher than just about any other one which gives you a nice little performance boost. | |

| Sempr0n? | Re: New build Go for an 8800GT 512 if you can stretch to it. As for SLi, don't bother....single card solutions are better and they allow you to use an Intel motherboard, which are generally more stable and better overclockers. Also consider a bettter cooler. The ACF7Pro is good for dual cores but I reckon you'll only be able to do about 3ghz on your quad. A Tuniq Tower or TR120-Extreme would suffice. | |
