 New rig Hey guys! I'm posting this from windows Vista. I got all the parts for my new PC yesterday, put it together, and finished up today. It's not really that insane of specs, but it's the most powerful computer I've owned to date. Anyway, here are my specs:
Processor: Intel Dual Core 1.86 ghz
Memory: 1 GB
Video Card:NVIDIA GeForce 8600 GTS
Sound card: Turtle Beach Montego DDL Device (I ran out of funds for a big fancy X-Fi card or anything.)
OS: Windows Vista Home Basic
So yeah, most of the newer games I bought now run smooth as a baby's ass.

Re: New rig Would that be a Core 2 Duo for the CPU? Looks like a good medium-end rig though. How much did it cost?

I'm curious how you got up to $1000 US. I'll have to dig up the papers again. I read something from a magazine and probably got the costs mixed up.
