Fed-Ex Fuck-Up?

[Kohller]

We'll my computer got shipped out, and they somehow dt'd the graphics card (9800xt) and the computer is a year old so im just gonna tell them they fucked it up, since i ordered insurance on it. anywayz, im running an amd, and would like to keep it that way. Basically ive got $1700 to spend on a new computer, any idea's on what I should put in it?

Lol so true.

Good that you're sticking with AMD, I'd help you out but I'm not up to date on computer parts anymore, but AMD 64 4000+ (FX probably too expensive) , an Asus Mobo that supports PCI-Express, at least a gig of ram, an X800XL for vid card, and a WD Caviar 250GB HD with the 16 MB buffer should be nice.

yeah thats what i was looking at... not sure as 2 what price itll finish out as but thats what i was looking into. havent been up 2 date since i got this last comp (honestly, i didnt care)

[Hyakku]

Agh I guess I'll help but only because I like computers. Don't take this as me liking you...because...well you know that won't happen any time soon.

Graphics Card:

A good Harddrive

And obviously the other basic crap.

With around $1300 you can get all the best of that without hte price of Harddrive, and CD drives factored in. I think for $1700 thats some good basics to go off of.

[megalomaniac]

hoho, you're too helpful. DON'T :P

Total $1,979


Computer I want to get, but kinda br0ke. All from newegg, doesn't have cooling in it yet :o. 'course you can save $230 if you don't need a new case.

[Hyakku]

WEll if there is a 128 MB of that card, then just get that, I'm telling you 256 is basically worthless if you have over like 1 Gig. And try to get a cheaper Hardrive maybe even cheaper Ram would make it alot cheaper for you.

[Kohller]

I wanna go with kingston ram just sorta my fab.. and i really dont need a 250 gb hd i dont store millions of porn files and i fraps only a bit. I was actually looking at running dual raid raptors any1 have anything 2 say about the raptors?

Ok right now im looking at...
ABIT Fatal1ty AN8-SLI
AMD 64 Bit 4000+
1 Gig Kingston HyperX
(Graphics Card, im unsure of. I had my 9800xt and it had problems, with it being my first ATI card i wasnt 2 happy :/ I might go back 2 nvidia but im unsure I kinda want an ati card due to the speed.)
From there, Im not sure. I might go with a liquid cooling system. But umm not sure on the money issue :/
