abscheele Posted April 6, 2008 Share Posted April 6, 2008 I am building a pc for osx/gaming, the hardware compability list says they are all good but just wanted to make sure: MOBO: Gigabyte GA-P35-DS3R GRAPHICS: 8800GT 512MB PROCESSOR: intel c2d E6750 I will also be getting some fans, 2gb of ram, and a 630W psu. I already have a compatible dvd drive, 2 hdd's and a case any comments/advice BTW is building a computer as simple as upgrading a graphics card or ram, just more parts?

LTL Posted April 8, 2008 Share Posted April 8, 2008 i'd get a badaxe2 and a q6600 I'd get a BADAXE2 2 years ago... no offense, its a great board, but OLD Going with a P35 based chipset Asus or Gigabyte is a good idea. I would like to get a X38 based chipset, but am not sure which one to recommend. I love my rig, it runs perfectly. I did not like the 8800GT, its buggy and I exchanged mine for the ATI 3870 which runs flawlessly thanks the netkas natit Check my sig for my suggestions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abscheele Posted April 8, 2008 Author Share Posted April 8, 2008 2 questions: How does the 3870 compaire to the 8800GT? how hard is it to build a computer is it as simple as connecting all the parts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
