Haha yeah that would be fun. Two of the new 9 series video cards running in SLI, with phase change cooling, overclocked to max, with two quad core CPUs. That WOULD be awesome.

i thought that quad cpus were only for servers as they have different sockets than pcs

Not so. Intels new Quad Core CPU's utilize a LGA775 socket and are compatible with "civilian" motherboards. Like this motherboard I plan to purchase.

If you are in the UK you will not be able to buy from Newegg as they don't deliver outside the US. Tough luck :(

Sorry this is a bit OT but my system runs C&C 3 fine, not sure of the frame rate and I only run at 1280x1024 (no AA and about mid-range graphics settings) but its good enough in my opinion.

The system requirements can be found here:
http://www.commandconquer3.com/cnc3_system_requirements.html

Graphics wise only a 32MB card is needed, although they recommend a 64MB or higher.

My system specs are:
Gigabyte K8NS-Ultra-939
AMD 3200+
1GB DDR 800 (PC 3200) Kingston RAM
2x 74GB Raptors in RAID 0
Gigabyte 6800 GT
Antec 430W PSU

Again, sorry for the slight OT. :P

Peace

Thank you, I got it three years ago this December from my parents. I think they said it was just a bit over $2000. :P

I put one together for a little under $1500 that i'm gonna purchase pretty soon (because I don't need a monitor, keyboard, mouse or speakers) I can PM ya the list if you want. :-)

Peace

But the 7600GT owns the 6800GT pretty badly.

Nice system though for its time. Very future-proof and probably still decent today.

Nope, the 7600GS is at least 30% slower than the GT if not more. The 7600GT is unfortunately becoming hard to find for PCI express since the 8600GT came out, annoying since the 8600 is no better.
