we just need the budget of sonsi...

my budget would be like 1500 dollars or so.

does that inlcude monitor, keyboard and everyhting else as well

Sample:

Core 2 Quad Q9300 - 2.50 GHz
EVGA nForce 790i Ultra SLI Motherboard
Corsair DHX XMS2 Dominator x2 - 4096 MB RAM
ThermalTake / PurePower W0100RU - 500 Watt power supply
EVGA GeForce GTX 260 Video Card - 896 MB video RAM
Samsung 20X IDE DVD Burner - 20x
Samsung HD753LJ SpinPoint F1 - 750 GB Hard Drive
Thermaltake WingRS 100 ATX Piano-Black midi tower

All for $1,404.91 at TigerDirect.com

95 bucks for a tft? :O
btw, do you mean canadian dollars or american vash/sonsi
(i think there is a difference, isnt it )

yea, ummm i put all that stuff in my shopping cart and it came out to about 1600$ and then there is the concern of building it

ok, i have it:

for 1567,90 $


you dont need a g15, but i love it, so i took it in your shopping cart
you can see, its all, with monitor (22" Samsung TFT Widescreen 2ms )

why i took:
-Big case...well, the GTX260 is a...lil bit bigger card^^ a big case is here just easier...you can take an other one, but the cases of lian li are just awsome (and expensive)

-640gb samsung hard drive, cause 500gb costs 10$less and 750gb costs about 120$ i think...

-550W Corsair power supply, cuz corsair rox, 80+, it has only 1x 12V rail, but with 41ampere (good enough),

-"only" 2gb of OCZ ram, cause 1. you can only have 3,5gigs of ram in XP and vista (only if you have the 64bit edition, you can have 4gig afaik) and 2gig are only enough :o

-E8400 c2d wolfdale, cuz its enough (2x3ghz) for someone, who isnt overclocking :o

-asus p5q-e, cuz its cheap and good (p45 chipset)

here an alternative for the case:

ok so i did Virus on the Canada site and it came to $1874.90 and with shipping it is $2177.77 that seems a bit expensive i probably wont be able to get it for at least a month or so anyways so i odnt know but thanks for the help guys

my friend has that second case virus, that things a beast.. way to big if ur only gunna have 1 hard drive...

lol, how can that be so much more expensive on canadian site :X
and shipping cost are fucking :S
ok, look at that:


sonsi, it would be better if you find out a new shop...this one sucks balls...

He doesn't have one already? And btw. when I wrote TigerDirect.com it's US Dollars. And Sonsi is Canadian? Didn't know

And Virus, replace the G15 by a G11, because no one needs that useless LCD and so you can save money. And also use atleast a nForce 7 chipset (or a Radeon with the X48) so you will have the CrossFire/SLI option in future.

All in all, good configuration Virus. (Except I would get Samsung Hard Drives )

well, idc about the hard drive, i had a western digital, and i have now a samsung...and i have a western digital extern harddrive. i love them all...
and why SLI/crossfire? i dont like it, you spend the double of the money and have only about 30% more power...and btw, ever heard of the problem "microruckler" ? :S

well, the g11 suck, really, cause its too long, and too expensive...50€ in germany...and for 15€ more you can get the g15, which is shorter and has a lcd...i have a g15, and the lcd isnt useless...only the ppl, who has no g15 say, that the lcd is useless
(ts viewer, vent viewer, weather, time[ingame] thats what im using)

The Samsung F1 series are awesome. Really fast (about 92 MB/sec) and you don't hear them ... (like 0.7 sone)



How old is your information? In many games you can improve your performance like 40-70% and that's really good.
Of course there are games which don't get really faster with SLI/CrossFire.

But really good is CrossFire hybrid, where you can buy a completely different Radeon to improve your performance. So you won't get in trouble to look for exactly the same card...

And you don't spend much more money for SLI/CrossFire boards ... like 40 bucks more... and that's acceptable. This is no money wasting ...

Microruckler? That's a not really important "problem" since you only get them if you play like in "uber"-resolutions with ultra high settings ...



Well both keyboards are really big. And I never would pay that much for a keyboard ... I got a Logitech Internet 350 Keyboard and it's working awesome. Who needs more?

i had the internet keyboard too :P the g15 refresh is just 5cm larger...but the g11 is 15cm larger, thats really annoying :S
well, i spent so much money cuz is felt in love and i wanted to have 1338 gaming shit <3
1. advantage of the g15, lighted keys...i couldnt play without...
2. better quality-> faster and the keys are better (tastendruck) and not so loud^^ i had the internet keyboard, i know what im talkin about
3.the best key ever, windows key lock, awsome
4. lcd for vent and ts, cant live without^^
5. winamp total control, you can change tracks (like every other multimedia-keyboard) but i can see the tracks on the display, thats just perfect for ingame
6. USB hub, just 1.1, but good for little things like pics from digicam
7. cable management
8. it looks just awsome
9. G-keys, i use them for:
-open winamp
-open vent
-xfire screen
-xfire chat
-sound mute (vent and ts)
-mic mute (vent and ts)


i mean, you spend, for example, 300€ for 2x 8800GTS and get almost so much power, like a GTX260 (220€)

Lol ... I never missed lighted keys on my keyboard...



I can't confirm this statement... every Logitech keyboard is good quality and the feeling of the keys aren't that different ... no reason for me to pay like €60 (!) instead of €8 to buy a G15....




Lol that made me laugh ... I don't hear anything. My friend has the G15 and there is no such difference ... (maybe you had another version of the 350 keyboard?)



Lol! I just noticed that I've never pressed the windows key accidently ... I'm smart, eh?



Maybe handy feature ... but I can live without it and save good money!



iPod + Soundsystem ftw!



Front panel USB ports ftw!



COOL! I pay €60 for cable management ;)



Not my style though ...



That's what I also can live wihout it....




You forget what I already posted twice: You get a good gfx card and buy the second one in the next generation.... e.g. hybrid CrossFireX

strange...all this arguments i had, before i bought the g15...strange...and i had the same keyboard...
1. maybe you play never at night and play without light is just the best atmosphere...
2. well, the g15 is just better, i played with both cod4....
3. i see the difference, cause i have both keyboards...i can compare
4. you are saving amazingly 50€, for ppl with a job not a problem
5. ipod is more expensive than a g15, and i play cod4 always with headset...and i dont have an ipod
6. for that i have to duck :P
7. thats just bullshit what you are talkin...
8. i like it :P
9. makes your pc thingys easier, you can also put any other key combinations on it...dunno, for photoshop or something

dude, i had all this arguments before i bought a g15... the g15 is a strange thing, if you dont have it, you only talk bad about it, if you have it, you talk only good about it...that was the same with me...

and to crossfire, i will never, really never, buy an amd card :P nvidia ftw :P
