Default Getting my nerd on today..

I decided it was time to bring my home build system current as a small xmas present to myself. I don't really game on the PC anymore so I saved myself tons of money on not getting a TOL video card and ultra fast memory.

For the nerds - Just ordered the following:
  • Asus P5QL PRO (Intel Socket LGA 775, FSB1333[OC to 1600], North/South bridge both Intel [P43 & ICH10])
  • Intel Core 2 Duo (3.0GHz, 6mb L2 cache, Matching FSB to mobo, Wolfdale core)
  • Ultra nerdy cooling fan for proc
  • 2GB of G.Skill Dual Channel DDR2 1066
  • WD 640G 7200RPM SATA drive 3.0Gb/s
  • EVGA GeForce 9800GT (512)
  • Vista Premium

I'll be using my same tower, power supply and cooling units. It's not a super gaming powerhouse (easily upgradeable to however), but should be a solid fast system to run Vista with.

Guilty. But way cheaper, faster and more stable than buying a pre-fab system.
