MSI GeForce 8800 GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card NX8800GT 512M OC
MSI GeForce 8800 GT 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card NX8800GT 512M OC

Pros: Great product..easy to install..512MB for the price great buy..

Cons: It's a big long card..somewhat bulky..for some bigger is better..lol..nothing really to complain about..other than the shipping..it took forever to get here..i ordered it on a thurs. next day air..but it didnt arrive til the following monday..i didnt allow for processing time..lol..my fault..shoulda paid the extra 2.99

Overall Review: this is my first desktop..i've owned 3 laptops..desktop consists of Xion mid-tower,AMD 64x2 6400,gigabyte GA-MA790Xds4,Kingston HyperX ddr2 800 4gb,Asus dvd sata,WD raptor 150gb@10k rpm sata,Thermaltake CL Po114 cpu cooler,Allied 500w psu and of course the MSI 8800GT..system runs at 19C on da cpu and 25C for the system..i dont know anything about overclocking but this is way faster than anything i've ever used..If you can stand listening to a whisper quiet breeze then it's all good..Everything was bought from newegg..

AHHH

ASUS M4N72-E AM3/AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA nForce 750a SLI ATX AMD Motherboard
ASUS M4N72-E AM3/AM2+/AM2 NVIDIA nForce 750a SLI ATX AMD Motherboard

Pros: pretty solid mobo for the most part.OC is ez..and the set up very well thought out.the utilities that come with it are fairly good..and ez to operate..

Cons: this mobo will read 1066 ram,but only if you have 4g or less that sucks..i coulda save some money if i had of known it..also spec say it has 6 onboard sata connects 1/2 the reason why i got the board..only 4 work unless you go to raid,and then i couldnt get the raid to work..maybe i was doin something wrong but the raid instructs or pretty easy to comprehend..

Overall Review: the board all in all is solid just a fw things i dont like about it..i do however love the way it looks.. 940 phenom II Asus 9800gt+ kingston ram 4g Newegg ROCKS!! delivery of all components to Iraq in less them a wk Great my 2nd deployment and never had to RMA anything..Shipping isnt so bad..lol..of course you never want to spend more than you have too..

Thermaltake CL-P0456 140mm CPU Cooler
Thermaltake CL-P0456 140mm CPU Cooler

Pros: Cool cool and cooler is all i can say about this fan..cpu stays around 27-32 degrees celsius no matter what i am doing..

Cons: it is rather large and somewhat cumbersome to work with but it is a whopping 140mm fan..does exactly as advertised..my only complaint that it comes with a blue led..wish it were red only because of my case..the light issue isnt anything that takes away from this cooler..

Overall Review: i have a mid tower..thermaltake v9..i almost didnt get this cooler bc everyone raved about how big it is..i got it installed with plenty of room to spare..

So Cold

Thermaltake CL-P0114 120mm Big Typhoon CPU Cooler

Pros: Almost like having a built in air conditioner..cpu operates at 19C while playin COD4 with no flaws..

Cons: It's hella big but bigger is better for some people..lol..the instructions were a lil skimpy but i figured it out..

Overall Review: this is my first desktop..i've owned 3 laptops..desktop consists of Xion mid-tower,AMD 64x2 6400,gigabyte GA-MA790Xds4,Kingston HyperX ddr2 800 4gb,Asus dvd sata,WD raptor 150gb@10k rpm sata,Thermaltake CL Po114 cpu cooler,Allied 500w psu and of course the MSI 8800GT..system runs at 19C on da cpu and 25C for the system..i dont know anything about overclocking but this is way faster than anything i've ever used..If you can stand listening to a whisper quiet breeze then it's all good..Everything was bought from newegg..

XION Onyx XON-303 Black/Blue Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case
XION Onyx XON-303 Black/Blue Steel ATX Mid Tower Computer Case

Pros: there's alot of space to work with..3 120mm fans which are virtually whisper quiet..nice look and the blue LEDS are a sweet touch..

Cons: even without the power supply or components it's a lil on the heavy side..

Overall Review: i 'm running the amd 6400x2,ga-ma790xds4 mobo,4gb kingston hyperX 800 ddr2 ram,8800gt VC,and an allied 500W psu..no heatin problems at all..
