Well, after 5 years with my last computer, I've finally upgraded, and went completely over-the-top.

- Antec 1200 Full tower case
- Antec 1000 watt PSU
- EVGA X58 3X SLi Motherboard
- Core i7 920 2.67 GHz (8-core) CPU
- 3x2x2 Corsair Dominator 1600 DDR3 RAM (12GB)
- 2x EVGA NVidia GeForce 285 1GB GDDR3 PCI-e SLi Setup
- 2x LG DVD-RW drives
- Samsung SyncMaster T240 HD 24" Widescreen monitor
- Logitech MX518 Wired gaming mouse
- Logitech Z-5500 Digital 5.1 Surround sound system
- Steelseries 5HV/2 Progaming wired headset
- Enermax Keyboard
- Microsoft Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit

Total Cost: $3,500

You TL'ers would be proud.

First game I loaded with all this raw potential just waiting to be released? Starcraft. =D
(Will be getting Crysis later in the week, though )


The other thing that you guys will appreciate, I'm sure, is my keyboard. I actually purchased 2. 1 silver, 1 black. My new keyboard now looks like this one. I can't seem to find the thread telling which progamer used that keyboard, though. All I know is, it's awesome, and now I have one.

I was told that SLi can't use >1 monitor. I have a very nice 19" Samsung LCD from my last computer (probably the best part of that computer left) that I was planning on using to serve as my browsing monitor while I gamed in the main monitor. Was the person who told me that wrong?

Actually just recently they released drivers that support dual monitor sli. Although i find that set up 1 24 inch is enough

Check out the release notes for the unified drivers 180+ it's somewhere around there just released last December or so.

+1. Though they are extremely bulky, and expensive, I'd prefer it over most desktop computers if I were to go all out.

Dude.. don't feel bad. The computer I upgraded from to this one started with an ATI 9700 (not a 9700 pro or deluxe or all-in-wonder or whatever the hell they used... just "9700"). One of my friends bought a computer in that time, and then bought a new computer, and gave me his 6800GT that I used for over a year in that machine.

This was a well-overdue, long-awaited upgrade for me
