im thinking of building a gaming rig after xmas & am wondering which of these to get.. also, would i be able to get 1 of these motherboard & processors, wait till vista & directx10 comes out, get a directx10 card, & fit them together or will vista require a certain type of motherboard etc? Motherboards: GIGABYTE GA-M59SLI-S5 Nvidia Nforce 590 SLI Chipset, ASUS M2N SLI Deluxe Socket Am2 Nvidia Nforce 570 SLI MCP ATX. Processors: AMD ATHLON 64 X2 4600+ Windsor 2000MHz L2 Cache Am2 Dual Core, AMD 4400+ X2 165 Opteron With A Toledo Core, Pentium D 805+ 2.66MHz. Graphics Cards: ATI All In Wonder X1800XL, ATI X1900XTX 512MB, NVIDIA GEFORCE 7900GT NVIDIA GEFORCE 7900GTX NVIDIA GEFORCE 7900GX2 RAM: 2GB CORSAIR DDR400 PC3200 XMS TWINX MATCHING PAIR, 2GB CORSAIR DDR400 PC3200 XMS2 TWINX MATCHING PAIR. The Only Reason The Pentium D Is In There, Is Because In This Months PCFormat Magazine, They Did An Overclocking Feature & Were Able To Overclock It From 2.66GHz To 4.01GHz & It Costs Less Than £100. Or Would I Be Better With A High Speed Single Core AMD? I Would Really Appreciate Some Help Here As There Are So Many Parts To Choose From, Each Claiming To Be Better Than The Other. My Specs Just Now: AMD ATHLON 64 3000+ 2.00GHz Socket 754, ASROCK K8upgrade VM800 Socket754 AGP, Nvidia Geforce 6600 256MB AGP, SAMSUNG 250GB SP2504C SATA HDD, 256MB ELIXIR DDR400 PC3200(The 2GB CORSAIR DDR400 PC3200 XMS TWINX MATCHING PAIR COMES ON FRIDAY OR SATURDAY), HARMAN/KARDON SOUNDSTICKS II, ONBOARD 5.1 CH Sound,(Creative Soundblaster Audigy 2 ZS 24BIT 192KHz 7.1CH Comes Next Week), 1X SPEEZE Hard Drive Cooler With 2 Fans, LOGITECH Desktop Cordless Mouse & Keyboard EX 110. THANKS
