Still Running Strong

Rosewill TU-155 Black 0.8mm SGCC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case with 400W(20+4 pin) Power Supply
Rosewill TU-155 Black 0.8mm SGCC Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case with 400W(20+4 pin) Power Supply

Pros: This case is worth every penny, I've owned this case for more than 3 years now, and the PSU is still running strong! its very spacious and can fit most of the fat cards out today. If u are looking for a cheap case w/ high quality and durablity get this.

Cons: 400w psu, nothing else much, if ur making a gaming machine all you will need is a new psu, but if ur making a basic system out of this, then this psu will suffice, 3 years and hasn't failed yet.

Overall Review: Good quality, had this since 2005 and still hasn't failed me yet.

Good Card For DX9

MSI GeForce 8500 GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Support Graphics Card NX8500GT-TD256E OC
MSI GeForce 8500 GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Support Graphics Card NX8500GT-TD256E OC

Pros: This Card is Very good for DX9 Games like Fear and such. I've seen reviews for the GDDR2 Version and when they oc'ed the GDDR2 card they got 74fps on Fear with everything maxed out at 1024x768, Soft Shadows Off. This Card is perfect if ur not gonna game on a resolution higher than that. Now the fact that this is GDDR3 memory, This card will OC MUCH HIGH.

Cons: Don't own the card but will order soon =) Won't do wonders With Crysis lol

Overall Review: A good card for DX9 Gaming, Runs great with Fear, Quake 4, Doom 3, Halo, Halo 2 Etc, Saw a Vid on youtube of a guy getting 58~70 fps on Lost Planet in DX9 at 1024x768 Max Settings System Specs: Athlon X2 5000+ BE @ 3.2Ghz Mushkin 4GB DDR2 800 Mhz MSI 8500GT *Ordering Soon*

Nice CPU

Intel Core 2 Extreme QX6700 - Core 2 Extreme Kentsfield Quad-Core 2.66 GHz LGA 775 130W Processor - BX80562QX6700

Pros: VERYYY FAST IS ALL I HAVE TO SAY AND ITS A GOOD OVERCLOCKER.

Cons: NONE

Overall Review: I have nothing against intel THey are a very awesome company but i am an amd fan boy.. Needless to say i dont' own this cpu... I own a Athlon 64 FX-74 (stock) And this cpu is almost as good in 3dmark06 scores.. just trails about 329 points behind. Thing is this is extremely expensive!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $900 Bucks for this beast.. And i got my cpu for only $159, its somewhat equal the performance when it comes to gaming... *looked at MANY benchmarks* But Intel is a very awesome company i have nothing against them. They rock, so does amd. If u have the money for this go ahead and buy it. But u can get the cpu i have (Athlon 64 FX-72) for about $800 less.

Want the card

PNY GeForce 8600 GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Support Graphics Card VCG8600GXPB
PNY GeForce 8600 GT 256MB GDDR3 PCI Express x16 SLI Support Graphics Card VCG8600GXPB

Pros: I have seen reviews for the card, and my friend owns this exact same card, He hasn't over clocked but i did it for him. This card is very promising. Managed to get a 680 core clock with this card, im pretty sure i can go higher. But this card is pretty nice in my friends system build. Altho my build is faster, he can run crysis at med-high settings with the core clock very well avg of 30-60 fps on 1024x768. Plan on getting this soon for myself!

Cons: *see thoughts* None tho

Overall Review: Haven't tried everything high but will do... Friends system build is Athlon 64 X2 4800+, 2gb ddr2 800 mhz, This card, 80gb raptor hd. My Build is a Micro, Specs as follows: AMD Athlon 64 FX-74 3.0 GHZ, 2gb ddr2 800 mem, 80gb HD, *This card soon* *Current is onboard* If anyone wants to see my gaming comp, its on the newegg wishlist thingy board... w/e its called.. lol.. its a cheap powerful system for only $491.84 *this includes shipping*
