Upgrading vid card q?

[foodang]

haha im gonna start workin at dairy queen for $8.10 an hour 5 hrs a day 5 days a week and thats gonna b my car

I deforest lawns and farms.... I wish I could get paid by the job because some of these ****ing jobs are ridiculous... sucks when you work for the city AND 17... I do football in the mornings (7-11:30) then work from 12:30 - however long it takes me to do a job (usually 3 hours)

1800? Rofl learn to pick and build better. Though, I am gonna buy that AMD 6000 x2 later tonight

 

[fumanchu]

hehehe, I figured I just may aswell order it pre-built to what I want instead of me ****ing it up.... I don't mind working though... I just found out that I did 800 dollars worth of labor for my mom's fault and I don't get a penny of the 800 back either.

 

[Hitsua]

Haha, owned. How much is prebuilt? It's honestly not that hard.

 

[fumanchu]

1780 (including prebuilt and 1 day shipping(I get impatient))... if would be cheaper to buy the shit and build it myself I will.

 

[Hitsua]

Rofl, you're like, picking the worst possible way to do this, aren't you?

 

[Hitsua]

Might as well double post:

it's easy to build. Motherboard manuals always tell you where each piece goes.

Intel Core 2 > AMD whatever they have.

I'm dropping a solid 3k on my next computer, going to kick ass.

 

[Hitsua]

Yeah, except Intel chips being like expensive as hell.

 

[fumanchu]

Would it be better to get a more powerful card or SLI the card I have selected?

I think I got everything to build a computer... if that's so I might just buy the ****in parts and build it myself.

 

[Hitsua]

How many bits is the interface? 128 is shit.

 

[fumanchu]

Guessing you're talkin about the vid card... the memory bus says 128-bit? I know barely nothing about cards...

 

[Hitsua]

Well, more is almost ALWAYS better. 128 will be fine, but you're better off with a 256bit interface.

 

[fumanchu]

But I plan on combining 2 cards






Edit:

I am going to bed, it's 12:30 and I need to wake up at 7 to go to football then work.... I will be back at around 7 to check and see if you guys left anything for me like suggestions or whatever

 

[Hitsua]

Ha, nice sched...again, it will work, but if you could SLI two BETTER cards together, well...you know

 

[fumanchu]

What are two better cards that are like under 175 a piece?

 

[fumanchu]

Sorry for the doble post... but I got another question....


What if I wanted to swtich over from nVidia to ATI cards? is it possible or will the mobo not accept it?

 

[Emperor Pan I]

it shouldn't matter, ati and nvidia cards both use PCIe/AGP.

 

[fumanchu]

Ok, Thank you. I was just wondering. My buddy is giving me a cheap card to put in mine till I have enough money to buy a new comp
