:huh:

Do you need a racing driver license to buy one plus helmet and safety belt to use it?? :lol:

he he! kinda a shame that they stopped making decent games in 1996 really-- :damn: :-j

yer its that time in my life aswell, im getting:

AMD 64bit X2 4400+
A8N SLi Deluxe
2GB RAM
Sappier X1800XT ViVo PCI-E

should run SH3 with harber traffic and commamder 2.3 without looking like powerpoint :D

The Dell XPS line is great. I have built my own systems for years, but finally got tired of all the defective parts I've encountered ove rth elast two or three.
So, I bought a Dell and have no problems at all. They also have an XPS line using the new BTX motherboard form factor. Watch for the sales they run if you are considering buying one. I got a free LCD 19" upgrade, so I only spent $40 in total for their top of the line 19" LCD! They also had $200 off if you spent $1999 or more, so i added a few more options to the $1800 rig I had set up and saved money!

Dell XPS
3.0GHz P4 HT (still plenty enough power for what's out there)
19" LCD monitor
GeForce 6800 PCI
2GB RAM
Dual 120GB SATA hard drives
Separate CD and DVD burners

The harbor traffic mod runs flawlessly! It has added yet another new dimension to SH3 for me. Half-Life 2 and Battlefield 2 are beautiful too!
:up:

Sounds good. On the mobo are you are that there have been some problems with falty cooler fans for the mobo chipset on the A8N Sli Deluxe model. Also the fan on it is quite noisy. In my oponion the better alternative would be the slightly more expensive Asus A8N-SLI PREMIUM.

I'm planning on building this rig in the next few months hopefully:

Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe motherboard
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800+ CPU (plan to overclock up to around 4800+ speed with 3rd party HSF being the Thermalright SI-120 and Aksa Amber Low Noise 120mm Fan)
Corsair TWINX2048-3500LLPRO DDR 2048mb kit memory
Coolermaster Wavemaster TAC-T01-E1C pc case
Seasonic S12 600w Power Supply
Maxtor Diamondmax 10 250gb SATA2 16mb 7200rpm NCQ hard drive
GeForce 7800GTX 512mb card (brand not confirmed)
Creative Soundblaster X-FI Xtreme Music
Sony DVD+/-RW burner DRU-810A, 16x, Dual, Retail

This should last a good few years for me hopefully. :up:
