imheretostay Posted May 8, 2006 Author Share Posted May 8, 2006 Okay I got 2x1gb instead of 2x512mb. I'll probably be ordering this this friday or monday. What type of RAM are you getting and how much is it? Corsair Value Select / 2 GB ( 2 x 1 GB ) /PC3200 - $254 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Corsair Value Select / 2 GB ( 2 x 1 GB ) /PC3200 - $254 Ooooooo that is a very good price imo. Converted it into pounds and it is £137. When I bought my Crucial RAM it was £70 for a 1GB stick.

Wolf68k Posted May 8, 2006 Share Posted May 8, 2006 Best of luck with that RAM. I had 2 sets of 2x512 sent to me and both came up bad. That but me off value RAM for good. Same brand and basic model that I have, but in gear for your reqirements. Kingston HyperX 2x1GB 2-3-2-6timing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fuckindumass Posted May 9, 2006 Share Posted May 9, 2006 Usually SLI/Crossfire mobos are a few bucks more from the same mobo maker than the single PCIE boards.But if you really want to take full advantage of the card when using SLI (not sure about Crossfire), there are some ports taht support SLI 16x where as most are SLI 8x. What this means is that, normally with a single card the PCIE slot runs at 16x. But when SLI first came out each slot while in SLI mode would be 8x, but in single card mode would be 16x. Now there are mobo that allow both cards to run at 16x. I have no idea of Crossfire suffers from the 8x mode when in the dual card mode or not. I don't care much for ATI is the only reason I don't know that much of it's details. I am not so pleased with my ATI X1600PRO 512mb, however, it is AGP8x, so um, w/e Time to upgrade that mobo again....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sixdust Posted May 12, 2006 Share Posted May 12, 2006 (edited) Here you go I added two 7900gt's, 2gbs ram, a 19" widescreen lcd, and a bunch of things I don't kmow if you need, like an extra harddrive, an aftermarket cooler, a gaming mouse and keyboard, a nice case with an lcd that displays temps and such. Just make any fixes that work well for you. Edited May 13, 2006 by Sixdust Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
