Hay guys, mobo advice?

Name: Anonymous 2007-02-16 17:47

I'm getting a new rig soon, as mine is pretty outdated.
So far it consists of:
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.66ghz
Whatever 500gb HD
Radeon x1950XTX
DDR2 RAM (2gb) 800mhz
But as you can see, it lacks a mobo.
It needs to be a slot 775, and I know fuck all about these things.
SO any of you got an idea?

dq6 is very nice, got that too

BUT

buying the 6700 imho is wasted money, just get the 6600 and save 50% of the 6700 price, then overclock (should easily get it to 3 - 3.4 ghz with air cooling)

plus if you DONT overclock ddr2 800 is wasted money too, 667 is enough then (667 even is enough if you oc a 6600 to 3ghz still).
plus 500gb hdds are crap, might want to have a look at either the 400gb samsung hd401lj or some seagate barracudas.

plus getting a 1950xtx atm is stupid, either wait until dx10 card prices have fallen with everything or buy a relatively cheap card and upgrade sooner than you normally would.

plus 1950xtx dx 10 compatible would be news to me.. might want to check that to be 100% sure, but i really doubt it does.

i should be done now, rejoice
