with less than 2 weeks to go untill i order all this stuff i wanted everyone's opinions and sugestions so i don't have to make any last muinute changes. i have not included a GFX in this because i am going to wait and see the new ones and what the prices of current cards do when they are released, although i am probably going to get a 9800GTX or 9800GX2. is there any point in getting a 9800GX2 because the performance gain over the 9800GTX will not be not be noticeable and there are no games at the moment that will play on high settings on a 9800GX2 but not a 9800GTX?
by the way all i am going to use this for is gaming and maybe the odd essay next year
