I got all the parts I needed to make some changes to my old system. And when I say old, I means 3-4 years. I just wanted some new toys to play with. So here are my new specs. Not sure If they are good enough to consider me for a Kick Ass Rig metal. But still fast as hell.

What's the model number of your ASUS motherboard? That could be seen on the box easy. Those 6 cores Phenom IIs are really aggressively priced. That takes care of CPU-bound games for quite a bit! I see a Raid O array for storage and 16Gb of RAM...good stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options... Awards

The A64s were kicking Intel's butt back then! It's the same card I've had for about the past year or so. Gorilla, the reason I ask, is that this HD5770 is equivalent to a GTX260...so, that being said, the day you wanna upgrade, a HD6950 would be a good upgrade, if you're willing to stick to AMD/ATI...The 6950, I'd look for a 2GB version of course, would be a LOT more powerful, pretty much 2.5 times.... I guess it depends on the game you play. In COD games, a 5770 is probably really good. In Crysis and stuff, well, you need more power, unless you drop the settings to medium I guess... but give a kick-ass medal to this guy!!!!
