    New machine is a few parts short...

    I bought the Maximus V Gene. :o I also made the jump and got a cheap Crucial M4 256Gb SSD (the 6Gb/s version). While I know it's not the fastest around, it seems reliable enough and will outperform my WD Black. Can't wait to get those parts together!

    New machine is a few parts short...

    Thanks for the input! Parts are ordered, though it ended up costing more than I thought (got an external HD and a few fans on top of it all, rebates were too tempting plus I've been wanting those for a while). I opted for the Asus-branded GTX 660 TI and the Seasonic X650 PSU (30$ rebate on...

    New machine is a few parts short...

    Thanks everybody! ;) Yeah I'm also partial to Samsung monitors. :D Asus and Viewsonic seem to have good offerings too. I'll think about it for the motherboard choice. I just couldn't find one I really liked (spec-wise and well reviewed) until I gave the Maximus V Gene a shot (I dismissed it...

    New machine is a few parts short...

    Got a better job with a better pay and instead of upgrading my current rig like I've been planning for a while, the idea of starting anew grew on me... Most of the parts are figured out, I did my homework and spent hours comparing reviews but I'm just not sure about the video card and PSU yet...

    Shopping for a new rig

    Good to know. :) My older PC had NOD32, not sure of the version, but it's been installed for 2 years. Did a great job, but I was thinking of retiring it. I will probably end up using the Kaspersky IS 7 license I have on my server, and transfer NOD32 on the server.

    My Floppy Drive?

    It's really up to you. If you don't use floppies that often, I'm sure you wont miss it anyways. Just keep it on a shelf, you never know when it'll come in handy. I have 2 floppy drives sleeping in my hardware bins. I hook one of 'em on my PCs only when I need it (mostly for Partition Magic)...

    Shopping for a new rig

    All parts are now ordered. I was able to find a few used bits to help keep the price down. DFI DK P35-T2RS E2180 with Scythe Ninja rev B cooler. I will test out a few fans I have lying around. Mushkin EM PC2-6400 2x2gb eVGA 8800GTS Corsair VX550 I threw in a Western Digital Raptor 74gb. Oh...

    Shopping for a new rig

    I gotta admit I'm kinda afraid of the "big move" to Vista. Been running 2000 for a few years now, and got comfortable with it. It's stable (2-3 BSOD per year, max) and not too bloated (< 200mb ram footprint).The only reason I consider to upgrade is that I've noticed recently a few apps/games...

    Shopping for a new rig

    As much as I'd like 4gb of ram (and I could afford it), I don't know yet if I'll install XP32 or 64 bits (I'm not Vista inclined). I read that XP32 doesn't support 4gb? That's another thing I need to learn about, to see if there could be compatibility issues with a 64 bits OS running 32 bits...
