Looks good from here.Even though im still using xp i can not see building a new rig and not having dx10 so vista is a must in my book. |

I agree with super on this one. Get vista 32 bit home premium trust me you will want the media center. Just turn off user activated controls and vista is so great. Unless you have people you wont to control. Um Good choice one the 750i wont need to upgrade till the i7 comes down in price. Are you going with the e8400 i think thats the one at 3.0 If you go with the 32 bit vista better go with only 3 gigs of ram cause your comp wont be able to use it all so waste of money. Nice hdd good brand. Um with your mobo you when you need to upgrade you can alwasy throw in another 9800 for a little extra getty up. What heatsink are you going to put on the cpu? |

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116488 why get the 32 bit when 64 bit is actually $5 cheaper and it can take advantage of all 4 gigs of ram plus some, if you find it necessary to buy more... I've got both home premium 64 bit and home premium 32 bit on comps in my household, and there is absolutely nothing that puts the 32 bit above the 64 bit, just follow the link and get the 64 bit also, I'm using a proxy to post... I'm still a script hacker, LOL |
