Hi, Im planning my first real computer build and would like some informed
opinions on any compatibility issues I have missed. I already have an xfi soundcard, three hardrives and a GeForce NVIDIA 8800 gts vid card. This
computer is to enhance an old fellers fun playing WW2 first person shooters.
I am currently using a 3.4 single core a 4 year old slow motherboard and a case that cooks the whole works. Thanks for your help.
