Nice choice of cases btw.

 

wow, really nice rig to be honest, with all your guys help.

 

I was wondering if any of these CPU coolers are okay b/c they can come in combo deals with the processor. Each one will end up costing no more than $30. I ask because the one Abuzar has rec'd isn't from newegg and i'd like to get everything in one order.
Here they are:
Rosewill RCX-Z4 120mm 2 Ball CPU Cooler comes to $30
Rosewill RCX-Z3 92mm Ball CPU Cooler comes to $25
Rosewill RCX-Z2-EX 92mm 2 Ball PWM CPU Cooler comes to $20
Rosewill RCX-Z5 92mm Two Ball Bearing / FDBB CPU Cooler comes to $20
Rosewill RCX-Z2 7 blades 80mm reverse ball bearing fan CPU Cooler comes to $15

All of these are cheaper than normal, but I don't know if they are crap or not. I see the Arctic 7 one on newegg and it would only be $5 more than from the ewiz website so I could just get the arctic 7 is you all think it better.

 

They don't come close to the AC7. That cooler provides excellent performance, and it's cheaper than cooler that do much worse.

 

The Freezer 7 Pro will beat any of those coolers bumbless. It's not even that expensive:

too bad i can't get Freezer 7 Pro cooler

 

These are supposed to be alright though...

well, i'm getting a Thermalright Ultra 120 and a good 120mm fan

 

Lol then why lament about not getting a Freezer 7? The Ultra 120's much better!

 

lol, i thouht Freezer 7 is cheaper

 

Not by a huge amount actually. In this country the Freezer 7 pro's about £15, the Ultra-120's about £25. That might seem quite a lot more since the Ultra doesn't even come with a fan, but consider that coolers like the Zalman CNPS9500 are nearly £40...

 

Okay, so I need a video card to hook my monitor up? I didn't realize that. SO i will have to take my old video card(GeForce 7300 GS) and put it on this computer. That leaves my other computer in need of one.
Here are the parts on that computer:
Gigabyte GA-965P
E6750 Core Duo
NZXT Apollo Case
Corsair 520W
Samsung burner
Corsair Memory
Spectre Monitor

I'd like to get a video card that is not that pricey. Around, $150 since I do not play that many videos games and if I do, they are games like Madden football and NBA live basketball, but I do have Gears of War and I am happy with the graphics I get with the 7300 GS so i don't think a high version is needed.
How are these:

@adawn101
you have a pretty good computer. Around $150 i suggest you getting HD3850 512MB, since it's cheap now and that card is good enough to run the games you want to play in high.

 

I searched on newegg for the one you mean, and the cheapest one I found is this one:
DIAMOND Viper 3850PE3512O Radeon HD 3850 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Retail $169.99.

I could go for that price, but are there any other recommendations by you or any body else for a little less (preferably) or the same money.

 

Get the 3850, it's miles better than any of those other options.

 

For the 3850, there are 2 of them that are 512MB at a similar price. Is either one better than the other.

SAPPHIRE 100226L Radeon HD 3850 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Retail $172.99

DIAMOND Viper 3850PE3512O Radeon HD 3850 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card - Retail $169.99

Any suggestions between the two? Also, i did a quick search of crossfire and am i right in that it is used if i have 2 video cards, so in my case it will be ignored.

 

i would take the Sapphire one, only if you willing to spend a bit more.

 

The Sapphire one for sure, it's a much better and more reliable brand.

 

If i go for the 3850, i just noticed that the 3870 512 MB is just $7 more after rebates.
But, I am really finding it difficult to shell out $180 for a video card, albeit a quality one, when I know that I will not be gaming that much.
Sorry, but can someone rec. one that is around $100 that is decent.

 

hey with Geforce 8800GT prices being dropped, would you still recommend the HD3870? They're priced at right around 200 dollars on newegg (give or take a few dollars), but their performance is superior to the HD3870...

Is there any benefit to the HD3870 over the 8800GT that I am not seeing?

As far as 100 dollar video cards you can find an HD2600XT for right around that price range.
