Thanks
Call of Duty 4
not tried ut3, but I enjoyed Crysis :/
Crysis, Silent Hunter 4, Microsoft flight sim FSX etc etc
I have a problem with people that don't say what's wrong, even though they ask for help :)
Hopefully there will be more games with PhysX support now that ATi/Nvidia are building support in to their hardware and drivers
GTX 260/280's are looking like better value for money now.
Go quad if possible, price is currently good.
Check out Zalman coolers and fans also.
Very thin layer is always preferable when working with paste and a cpu. Arctic Silver 5 is good, used it a few times.
Vista has been fine for me, performance is good (but I do disable some services) for gaming etc.
Depends what games you play also, even a GTX 280 may struggle at really high quality and resolutions in Crysis, and Microsoft FSX (flight sim),...
I used to use a single 70Gb WD Raptor hard disk but upgraded to two 150Gb Raptors in Raid 0 on an Asus P5K3 mobo, I'm very happy with that setup...
Thanks very much, excellent stuff!
Corsair Tx750 is a nice PSU, although it has all the cables attached, so a is a little bit more of a challenge in terms of cable management, but...
