Heyyo,

HuntKillaz, nice choice with HP, for a big company selling comps at least they're nice aboot 3rd party upgrades.

but I checked the specs, that 128MB of ram won't cut it, I believe even with a new videocard like that. The cpu's a little weak too, just a little celeron.. might wanna upgrade that too if possible...

It also doesn't mention your power supply, make sure it's at least 300 - 350 Watts or it won't be able to hand that videocard and you'll need a new powersupply to go with it...

If I were you, for HL2 go ATI cause it's ATI Optimized. But if you're gonna get a big card like that? I'm pretty sure it won't matter too much.

[EDIT]
Dudes, we should start a stress-tests thread, where we post our comp stats and our CS:S video quailty settings and our average framerate results so we can see how well different setups run on the source engine.. who's up for this idea? I am.


Later-a-much, and LONG LIVE THE D!,

Heyyo,

Heh, that's gonna be one buffed comp.

For a mobo, may I suggest an Asus? it's much better than MSI (I have one, it's not very good...) and those new deluxe one's are CRAZY. Like, the deluxe for a S748 is crazy man... you could throw in soo many HD's like, 6 in total I think (considering you're gonna want 2 CD/DVDrom/RW drives...)

check this one out, beaute, and pretty good price:

http://www.ncix.com/products/index.p...nufacture=ASUS

of course the price will vary for you, NCIX is just a computer warehouse I shop at.

Hell yeah! I have a Ye Ol' ASUS A7A266-E, and it never broke down or anything. Never gave me one problem.

Long live ASUS and AMD!
