better vid card, we're into the 7xxx now, and soon 8xxx.
Also go dual core, and install a 64bit OS with SMP kernel for full use of the machine.

Get a single 7900 or 7800 instead of two 6600's. I'm not sure if it'll be cheaper, but it should be faster.

Me too! *high five*

I also use it for MSN, YIM, and sometimes IRC.

Yeah, but I dont like any geforce 7's b/c SaTaN bought a 7600gt, and You cant use forceware drivers on it, the GPU cant be over clocked b/c of the HT with the processor, and it lags on every game besides like emulators....*Mario World* runs great on the pc.. lol, Anyhow... i never heard of Gaim? lol!, But for all i know... i may just buy the same system i had last time... Dual core 3.0ghz with 1gb of ram, and a nvidia 4 mx 4000 agp 8x

eiii: NEVER USE GAIM FOR IRC!!! EEEK!!! lol that's what xchat is for.
I use Gaim because I run linux and I like the handy xmms "currently playing" settings for auto-profile, they let me put what song I'm listening to in my profile and my away messages and stuff like that. I use xchat because I already made all my irc scripts for it a long time ago and don't wanna remake them for a different app.

My 7900GT runs fine in linux and in windows. I overclock it once in a while using NV-clock, but its not necessary at all, I just like having a really high FPS in games. I play Quake 4 and stuff with it normal and it runs fine locked at 60 FPS, I'd adjust it to go higher but the whole Doom 3/Quake 4 engine gets messed up if you set it to use any different maxfps, I tried 250, and it did it, but the timing in the game got messed up and pb kicked me, lol.

I run most of my games maxed out in settings with a res of 1280x1024.

Yo!! I figured out why SaTaN's System lags games!! The Refresh Rate On The Monitor Lags It!!!, He had it hooked up to a TV running Doom3 On Ultra High With Everything on and it didnt lag once!!, so He is buying a new monitor that supports 105hz refresh rate!

ROFL. Vertical-Sync kills.

Poll

I used to be an nVidia fan before I got a new system with integrated ATi Radeon. 6x anti-aliasing is awesome! Whitch do you prefer?
