@ antares81
[Interestingly enough, I had started with an 8800GTX that I had to send back to the manufacturer.]
I presume your talking about this card : (brand in this case: PNY) GeForce 8 8800GTX PCI-E 768MB.
Or are you talking about a different card?
@ Ishigami
[I feel buying e.g. the new GTX 260 is more appropriated (maybe too expensive)]
Are you talking about those?
XFX GeForce GTX 260 ,896MB, DDR3, PCI Express (going for €327,60)
Leadtek GeForce GTX 260 ,DDR3, PCI Express x16 (going for €348,60)
Which in any case is cheaper then the 9800GX2 (cheapest going for €390,00)
I hope you don't mind, I've visited so many sites and read so many articles, I'm getting lost in the maze called PC building.
I came up with this rig:
Case : NZXT Zero Tower
Power : PC Power & Cooling Silencer 750 Quad CrossFire Edition
Mobo : MSI X48 Platinum (not quite happy about this one though) any recommandation whould be appreciated.
Processor : Intel® Core™ 2 Duo E8500 (considering your input Ishigami)
Processor Coolers : Zalman CNPS 8700NT (odd thing, I was already looking at those coolers antares81).
Additional Coolers : Not needed as the case has 7 of them already (120mm)
Vid.Card : on of the above mentioned GTX 260
Memory : Corsair DIMM 2 GB DDR3-1333
Hardisk : 750GG Maxtor DimondMax 22 (might replace this with the one I have in my old rig)
Sound Card : Non (as I have a Plantronics Game headset which is awesome)
