1. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16813131600 this one is much nicer than what you\\\'re planning on getting, also much better for gaming n video editing n shit

2. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16820104151 more bang for a little more buck

3. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16822136320 though slightly smaller, the performance will be noticeable

hope this post is more helpful than the last one
systech every asus product i have ever purchased has fucked up in some capacity

also, more ram is preferable to faster ram, so i\\\'d say save the money to go towards another 2gb

the hard drive performance will not be noticeable and i could write out a big diagram but imho zekey is better off with the drive he picked out if only because it is significantly larger.

Quote from: CVGCongrats of getting a new computer : ) Wow you've been doing Polypeptide with only 890 RAM?! How is that even possible?

Everyone keeps asking me this question and the answer is always the same:  very slowly and patiently

Most of the latter half of poly I've been doing on my tablet PC. Which is considerably faster and has allowed me to do stuff like this without the computer freezing due to not having memory.


I'll probably use this new PC to do the final export on the film when its done in 2056 since I'll assume it will take alot of memory to render.


Anyway.


Final rig.
Slightly smaller hard drive than before. 4gb of ram. Not much else changed too much.

Congrats zekey. Hopefully polypep will get finished faster now. Polypep is looking great so far.

I picked AMD because the intel cpu I had picked out was a core 2 quad 5 bucks more andwas only 2.66 ghz while this one comes at 3.4 ghz quad core out of the box. the logic made sense to me.

W.A.C.

My Computer: [LINK]
CPU: [LINK] ($99)
Heat Sink / Fan: [LINK] ($27)
Motherboard: [LINK] ($109)
Power Supply + Case: [LINK] [LINK] ($140) (Combo Deal)
Hard Drive: [LINK] ($85)
RAM: [LINK] ($60)
Graphics Card: [LINK] ($110)
CD/DVD Drive: [LINK] ($29)
Flash Drive: [LINK] ($16)

These are the stats for my computer. Since my monitor cost $200 plus an additional $40-50 because of the $30 warranty and tax, the overall cost for my computer was about a thousand dollars. FYI, this is my monitor: [LINK]

What do you think of your AMD processor? At first I was pretty sure I was going to get an intel until I switched to AMD last minute. hopefully that is a choice I will not regret

wow zeke, polypep looks awesome

Works great.

imo get q6600 and overclock to 3 Ghz or higher

Isn't a q6600 only 2.4 ghz? anyway my brother (who paid for the computer) doesn't want to overclock so I picked a proc that is fast out of the box. also 3.4 would be tough to OC to from 2.4 you would definitely need an aftermarket CPU fan or something.

billy

i have a q6600 and i just got a $30 heatsink for it and OCed it all the way to 3.2 and that\\\'s enough for crysis on maximum detail settings at 1920x1200, with the 4870 video card being the thing holding the performance back, so if you don\\\'t plan on staying on the super cutting edge i\\\'d say that\\\'s pretty amazing bang for buck.

i guess times have changed and it\\\'s hard to get a q6600 anymore, so maybe phenom ii x4 940 would be the best buy if you overclocked it
