Upgrading

[Landspeed]

This is what I got
AMD X2 4800+
DFI Lanparty Ultra-D
1GB of OCZ DDR500 Gold
X800 GTO2 oc'd to X850 XT PE

I pretty much have this sold for a grand

This is what I'm thinking of getting

Intel Q6600
Asus Striker Extreme
2GB of Corsair TwinX DDR2 6400
8800 GTS 320 or 640 not sure what brand.

This will cost me under a grand

Should I upgrade or should I keep what i got

And I want some opinions on what I should get.

So let's hear it

lol should I upgrade or keep what I got.
Screw you lol

[Mike-KT]

how are you selling that for a grand?

[Landspeed]

how are you selling that for a grand?

There's more to it than just that
like a copy of windows XP Pro
19" LCD and it's a complete tower
A Spare Snowboard, etc etc etc


Winston your the one that pressured me into upgrading not my fault you can't do it anymore.

Are you waiting for July 22nd?

[Mike-KT]

what, for the 1333FSB Conroes?

It's like a 1.9% average performance increase

[Crayola]

noi, the price cuts, but shhhhhhhh, keep it on the dl

[manofphat]

lol I was just saying how you were all like, "I can sell my old computer for a grand, I can buy these NEW parts for under a grand. Should I upgrade?"

Nick, if you can sell my computer for a grand, I'll do that shit too ;)

[Landspeed]

For sure I'm going to wait for the price drop.

I'm really wondering if I should wait for AMDs new chips or Intels new ones

[gOOCH]

buy a new gfx card today

[Mike-KT]

Well AMD can't match a Q6600, and no one knows how well their next batch will do

it seems like a no brainer to me. If you want to save money, go with an AMD 5600, it's around $150, otherwise, you have a good set up there.

I saw that too. Good price for the mobo.
My post wasn't spam. Someone was looking for an 8800GTS OC2 so I posted a link to a guy selling one.

[gOOCH]

rofl nvm, i thought that zhy guy who spamed was you cause he was selling a 6700 and a mobo, i just woke up then

[ORION]

Nick, how were you planning to get that for under a grand? Cause last I checked those parts were just over a grand.

[manofphat]

He works for a retail store. He gets shit cheap

[Landspeed]

I sure do take any price you see and knock off 20 to 30% sometimes more.

Like I can get a copy of xp pro in the double digits ssshhhh don't tell m$
