Ok any one who's been on here for a while knows that Ive been waiting for a new PC skynet as i name it now heres my Delmer do i wait till Jan the 30th when VISTA comes out and get every thing then eg first run dx10 cards or do i spend 200quid now on a x1950 and wait till the likes of crysis is out to get my 2 dx10 cards . This is what I'm looking at at the moment .
£149.15 Abit AW9D-MAX Intel 975X (will run crossfire or sli)
£624.99 Intel Pentium Extreme X6800
£207.96 OCZ 2GB (2 x 1GB) PC2-6400 Dual Channel Special Ops XTC Series DDR2 may put 4GB in
£234.40 Enermax EG 1000EWL Galaxy Modular PSU 85% Eff' EPS12v Triple Quad +24 Rails Silent x2 Fan
£45.81 Zalman CNPS9700 LED Aero Flower Cooler Copper
£12.34 Sony DDU-1615 DVD-ROM (Black)
£84.85 Akasa Eclipse 62 PC EATX Midi Tower Case
£193.86 GeCube ATI Radeon X1950 Pro FZ SuperCooled TURBO SILENT TEC/Heatpipe 512MB
total for now £1553.36 Pounds
and the harddrive i have is Western Digital Raptor X 150GB WD1500AHFD 10,000RPM SATA 16MB
i run a lapop and a 3800 pc as well thats why only one harddrive and just a dvd player
Now i could have this by next week or should i wait for the quads and vista or have a stonking fast pc for crimbo .
Was reading some stuff through the night so in really thinking of doing this .

at this moment think i could have a new pc by next weekend and leave off getting vista and 2 dx10 cards till the end of next year as I'm just waiting around . Yes theres new CPUs coming then Motherboards then mem its never ending i think its time i commit then ill stop reeding about whats coming . The thing is will vist come on the 30th jan till then theres nothing that seaports dx10 games keep getting put back I'm like sodit i may as well have a nice sweet fast thing for crimbo .

Wait man, just wait.. After X-mass the price might go down, and Vista is out as you said.

Lol i had what they say a blond moment . (I'm not blond) I am waiting but the price thing is no prob . the only problem is after crimbo theres new processors coming out well ones just out Intel Core 2 Quadro QX6700 Extreme Edition but for gaming its not as good as the Core 2 DUO Extreme Edition X6800 but £100 more do i need quad NO . then theres the new Fxs 70 - 76 but the 76 isn't till later next year .The 74 could just plainly kick ass but I'm in the Delmer were i don't play games above 1280 / 1024 ever . it also looks like all the new Pentium Bord's will only run sli i want crossfire . So it all means i got some thinking to do . Ati / Amd route or nvidia / Pentium route i am by rights a Ati / Amd man arrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

Yer theres a new abt one coming in jan IN9 32X-MAX # LGA 775 # Nvidia® NF680i SLI # FSB1333 # Dual DDR2 800 # Dual PCI-E X16 # SATA 3G RAID # Dual NV GbE # HDMI # 2 IEEE1394 # 7.1 CH HD Audio # SilentOTES™ # μGuru™ Tech but no crossfire i am hoping that the fx-74 processor comes in jan as i have a feeling its going to be the top dog when it gets here . Then i can go crossfire as now it really is nvidia or ati your no longer get to chose . boo ( i realy dislike nvidia in the past )
