whats up guys, I just got a new job as a systems manager and i am going to be getting a new pc. i am pretty good with computers, but experience can sometimes beat good old book knowledge, so i was wondering if you guys could throw your opinions this way on my new system. compatability issues? better choices for better prices? thanks in advance guys.

Tell me what you think please! :D
 
sounds preety nice all though i dont recommend DFI
for some reason i dont like them
i had really good experience with ASUS
 
i had good exprerience with asus too, but i cant seem to find a good motherboard with x2 support a pcie port, that is also for a good price, any recommendations in the asus line?? oh and by the way, i didnt put a hd on their because i havent decided yet, any reco's on an hd too? thanks in advance! :D
 
I've heard that DFI motherboards are godly; however, all I've used are Asuses and I've loved all of them! So I recommend Asus, personally, from experience.
 
Ill be honest,

I'm looking for this pc to look really cool :confused: i know, being a systems manager i shouldnt care what it looks like, i should care how it performs. But i think it has an affect on me if i walk into my dark room seeing only the enormous glow of a crystal clear green case!!! you all know what i mean :cool:

The motherboard looks phenomonal, i dont know how i didnt find that before, i was looking for the ati crossfire integration without a bunch of bad reviews and this is one of them! thanks man, i appreciate it.

Any suggestions on a green yellow or blue LED power supply? if not, i will go with the one you suggested, it looks pretty sturdy and has many good reviews, thank you for your help, and if you find some of those psu's help me out please. thanks for your courtesy to the forum newbie! lol
 
yeah i know thanx dude, its just my friend has this pc and it was soooo awsome in the dark, expecially the PSU it is the highlight of it! its the brightest thing in the case.

Thank you sooo much for all your help i really appreciate it, ill probobly get the second one!
