I got my tax return :banana: and i can spend $1500-$1600 on new stuff. i currently have a asrock MB and a e6400 with 1 gig of ocz ddr2 667 ram. i need to know what good case will fit the 9800gtx. and should i get 2x 9600gt 0r 1 9800gtx ? i`m also looking at the evga 750i mb. Help will be appreciated. FB
Alright, First off, a lot of cases will support the size of the 9800 GTX, just don't by a 4x4 box ;-) . Personally I would get a 9800 GTX, and then later on, maybe buy another one. (In a 6 or 8 months) Not that it won't be able to run the games, but y'know, SLI is always hot! For the mobo, you said you were looking at the 750i, it's a great motherboard, altho, if at some point you would like better ram, maybe even DDR3, you will be stuck at DDR2-10066. Maybe you should put a few more bucks on the mobo! Like I said about the case, just look for one you like, because hundreds of cases could be linked. Look at some Antec and Coolmaster, these are both really good companies. Hope that helped! †Fire
the coolermaster cm 690 is cheap and i have a big 8800gtx in it edit look at the reviews for it, it is under 100 bucks
Thanks t fire i am seriously thinking about 2 gtx`s but then i can`t upgrade the mobo. and i will need a goog psu with 4x6 pin connectors. i`m gonna be placing my order today with new egg. right now i`m downloading vista home premium. FB

Dude please, wait 2 more months until the 9900 GTX or 9900 GTS comes out!!! then buy those bad boys and SLI them
