jcantlin	update: with the 1k coupon at ncix.com the "biggies" i got were a new samsung syncmaster 204b lcd monitor 1600x1200, 4:3, and, because i really needed it, a canon s5 is 8 megapixel digital camera w/ 12x zoom, face recog, image stab,, etc. the camera and monitor are sweet and i use this gaming pc with them every day. i also got a bunch of little stuff, all pc related and all used and useful. thanks evga!!!!	03/18/2008 11:48:14 AM
Poonie Killa	yea	02/24/2008 12:02:17 AM
Thunderstorms	congratulations on your win!	12/10/2007 1:34:44 PM
jcantlin	thx techfan. haven't oc's the e6600 yet, when the pc starts to show some age and needs a boost i will, at least as far as i can with air cooling. i want to stick with air cooling, got plenty of fans and the the hardcano controls the rpm's of the 4 case fans between 50% and 100% -- right now they run at the low end of this range and the pc is very quiet which i like. the ps has 2 more fans and of course the cpu and the 8800 have their own. how far do you think i could ocing the e6600 go on air cooling alone? as far as the 1k goes, i'd like to get a new monitor and sound card and see how much is left over -- i'd like the biggest and fastest non wide screen lcd monitor i could get, there are surprising few choices above 19 in. (which i currently have) in the 4:3 aspect ratio. widescreens took over without me noticing! any recommendations? i am looking at either the nec 2170nx (21 in. 8 msec) or nec 2070vx (20 in. 5 ms). any recommendations? the sound card i was looking at is the creative 7.1 x-fi xtremegamer fatality pro. - newegg has just posted (yesterday) a 1 week rebate on it for $50 which brings it down from $135 to $85. i hope i get my coupon soon and that it is for newegg :-) but the tiger will do too !!!	11/17/2007 8:22:15 AM
{Massdeth}	grats!!!! nice rig. have you tried ocing that e6600 and how far did you get with it? so what are you gettin with your 1000?	10/30/2007 7:04:06 PM
Jeepn	congrats on your win bro! 1tb is some serious space!	10/28/2007 11:06:54 PM
jcantlin	started with 2gb, then the identical package of two 1g sticks i originally installed went on sale, i thought vista might be able to use the extra 2g so i got them. since then i also added a 4gb patriot xporter flash drive and activated vista's readyboost...saw no effect whatsoever, probably becasue the 4gb of ram is enough.	10/28/2007 9:15:28 PM
slythfox	why 4x1gb of ram?	10/28/2007 3:31:05 PM
HighVoltage	way to go!! congradualations! i have a giga-byte board also,the p965-dq6 rev1 though, lot of probs with this 1. anyway good for you!!	10/24/2007 8:17:02 AM
jcantlin	hey wraithking...thanks. i am using the 500mb to make image backups of my 2 250's every so often. i also use it to make backups over a personal lan of my older pooter's data files. i do find find it hard to use up a terrabyte :-) on my initial setup vista had trouble with the original raid 0 i planned to use (the bios set it up perfectly but vista coughed up a fur ball). so i used the twin 250's for my main drives and got the 500 mb for an installed backup. sort of a non real time mirror. if i had known then what i know now i would have started with 1 10k rpm main drive vs 2 7200rpm main drives. vista did not even like the twin drives, i finally had to install vista with only one drive formatted and then when vista booted it recognized the 2nd and i could then format it. i love the lianli case.	10/23/2007 6:00:33 PM
wraithking	with the extra 500mb, you planning on raid 0 with the 2 250s? mine has been running smooth for a year now with no probs, like the layout of that case btw, reminds me of one i modded for a friend. grats on the 1k	10/22/2007 8:05:07 PM

jaggerwild	wow and he doesn't have a evga minaboard either? guess my theory was wrong, but they gave it to the wrong gigabyte mainboard ha ha	10/10/2007 7:00:35 PM
jaggerwild	finaly another winner! congrates lucky bastage! stepup and go sli, very nice system, enjoy your shopping spree!	10/10/2007 6:58:39 PM
SomeDooD	if you want a 22" lcd, go with the samsung 226bw, i use and have played 2142 on it and it looks nice and crist! :p	10/10/2007 12:30:10 PM
arius704	lucky sob!! newegg has a viewsonic 32" hdtv for $500, if your going for pc only you cand get a 22-24 pretty cheap... i guess gateway/acer has a decent product (an acer 22 on my roomies system) but... i got a samsung, great moniter! the gateway line has tv inputs so you could play a counsole or watch tv on your moniter as well... good luck, and definitly get a $300+ 8800___!!	10/09/2007 8:34:39 PM
jcantlin	wow, thanks a lot everyone...i don't know what is better, all the nice comments or the $1k! i shouldn't be surprised with all the eyes for detail out there that you picked up on the weak link -- my monitor -- which is a port from the prior system. i hear you, i hadn't thought of a new monitor but now i am! any tips or recommendations for a new monitor would be appreciated. i play battlefield 2142 and wonder if it plays ok with a wide screen, anyone know from personal experience? i would like to stay in the "good bang for the buck" category, perhaps there would be enough left over for an 8800gtx :-)	10/09/2007 5:48:40 PM
