im guessing yours will be pwnt x50

Well at 1/8th of the price it will probably win the value front, lol.

Maybe...

But there are more things to take into account when thinking of value for money =]

Performance per price is pretty much all that defines value, unless performance isn't satisfactory, in which case the value drops off sharply. Though i don't think Si will have that problem.

Not as far as I know. I believe 5.9 is the maximum.



Let's whack a copy of 3DMark06 on there and compare our scores!
I have a score for my last system, too, so we can compare to that as well.

More to take into account than performance. Things like how easily is it to upgrade and how long is it going to last before its very out of date a both pretty major things when looking at what your buying to.

True, but other than Aaron using DDR3, they are the same in that respect, lol.

Ye olde parts have just arrived...

Let's build (with some pics of my failure xP )

Awesome

Lets see how good your wire management is!

My wire management critera:

1. Is it caught in a fan
2. Is it stretched so much its gonna snap

If the answer to both of those is no then its enough

Heh, these should be interesting pictures!

Good luck

Does this mean Si will finally be able to play css with more than like 5 fps? :O

I believe that's the idea ^^

Lmao

I must admit it is amusing seeing him running at such low fps with amazingly high pings xD

You mean low pings?

Not low high.. meaning 200+ ping

Or <10, lol. When he's not lagging out he gets a seriously low ping.

Yeah ive seen him with pings of 5 before. But seeing him in computer laggyness with added net laggyness is just warping extreme xD

Only 80-150 fps at 1600x1200 all maxed 8xAA 16xAF

Si that is actually pretty good o.O

why the sadened face?

TF2 or CSS?

And that's a fantastic framerate in either case, lol.

TF2

And I was taking the piss. It's a running joke with me and Met, which reminds me
