My computer and everything got stolen so I'm recooporating and starting with my PC. Requirements: 4GB DDR2/3 RAM A GPU with 1GB of RAM (gonna be using a 1920x1080) 500GB-1TB HDD Tower with plenty of USB ports (Optional, yeah I know) A decent amount of PCI-E slots. ~$1K Preferebly from Newegg So, I'm pretty tech savvy; However when building a PC I dont really know what to look for in the specs. Like, people seem to know just by the names that it's good quality. So, along with assisting me in a build, perhaps a few tips as to why they were chosen and what to look for.

Excellent possibility. And it wasn't really the content of my computer. More like everything in my room.

Then it would be poetic. Shooting down an old friend.
Some friend! :doh:

A 5850 [I]and[/I] 5770?
[QUOTE=ferrus;20152925]A 5850 [I]and[/I] 5770?[/QUOTE] That is a mistake, disregard the 5770

[QUOTE=CPShArp;20152434] Case has lock so no one steals your shit this time.[/QUOTE] you can cut back on the power supply
By how much wattage do you mean? [editline]05:58PM[/editline] Gonna need a cheaper build maybe, I added a keyboard, mouse, monitor, and router and its ending up ~$1,700. [editline]05:58PM[/editline] [url]http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/TemporaryWishList.aspx[/url]

[editline]05:58PM[/editline] [url]http://secure.newegg.com/WishList/TemporaryWishList.aspx[/url][/QUOTE] can't see your wishlist, you have to make it public.
It's your build plus a 21.5" Monitor, Zboard (I really love the standard key set and how loud and rectangular it is), a MX518 mouse, and a WRT54G2 Router. I would have just posted it but I lost it.
Can you post links to the new parts you want to add so I can reedit the old list?
do you really need a x3440? for 40 bucks more you get 8 threads, but for 40 bucks less you can get a i5 750 and for that 40 bucks left you can invest it in other things.

[editline]07:10AM[/editline] Perhaps DDR2 RAM and maybe a 9800GT (if it will to just about equal preformance as the Sapphire).

[QUOTE=CPShArp;20190929]The x3440 is just a downclocked i7.[/QUOTE] X3440s overclock extremely well. You could get it to 3.2GHz fairly easy. [editline]04:38PM[/editline] Possibly even higher.
[QUOTE=ghostofme;20191007]X3440s overclock extremely well. You could get it to 3.2GHz fairly easy. [editline]04:38PM[/editline] Possibly even higher.[/QUOTE] I know that I'm just saying, that's what the X3440 is when they sell it; a downclocked i7.
If op's pc got stolen by an "old friend", Why doesn't he just get the police?
I have contacted them. He told me he sold it.
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;20191742]I have contacted them. He told me he sold it.[/QUOTE] Well fucking kick his ass or somethin or go steal his shit.
[QUOTE=Take_Opal;20191742]I have contacted them. He told me he sold it.[/QUOTE] If that was the case, the police wouldn't leave him to sell it. They would arrest him for dealing with stolen property.
Okay? Why are you telling me things I already know? [editline]10:18PM[/editline] [QUOTE=CPShArp;20194805]Well fucking kick his ass or somethin or go steal his shit.[/QUOTE] Would love to but we don't live in the same state
I need a good Wireless Adaptor for a little. Suggestions? [editline]10:07AM[/editline] And the Radeon 5850 is out of stock. Either I wait to see if it is in-stock by Friday or I replace it

Either I wait to see if it is in-stock by Friday or I replace it[/QUOTE] You mean like a PCI adapter for desktop PCs? You should wait for it to be in stock or go with a 5870.
PCI Adaptor [editline]05:47PM[/editline] And hopefully it'll be in-stock by monday. I'm not a very pacient person when it comes to this, I haven't had a PC in 8 months.
Here's one, looks pretty good: [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16833166020[/url] and you can always go with a different manufacturer if you don't wanna wait for the 5850: [url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102857[/url]
