New Computer
I built a new computer last weekend (and brewed beer at nearly the same time!)
This is what I picked up:
Gigabyte EX58-UD3R motherboard
Intel Core i7 920
6 GB Corsair DDR3 1600
2 x 60GB OCZ SSD (stripped for 180 MB write speed, 310MB read)
Corsair 620 watt PSU
Antec 300 case
LG 22x Sata DVDRW
Windows 7 ultimate RC
I used my old Geforce 6600 GT to do all the installs and migrate my files and profiles over from my old machine. It currently has my geforce 8800GTS 640MB and I have a new dell 23" monitor on the way. The video card will probably need a bump by the end of the year.
If anyone wants to buy any of the parts (or the whole thing) of my old computer, let me know (this offer isn't open to the public, the readers who are eligible know who they are.
I am currently putting it through its paces and should have some performance reports by the end of the weekend (as a taste.. I haven't noticed any slow down in supreme commander on a 40x40 map with 1,000 units in play).
