Omg i could kill these noobs.
Still waiting on case and mobo ffs, just called them it will arrive in ~ 2 weeks at my home.
Wtf pls.
I already received the other parts and they look quite awesome.
I also need a good tutorial on how to build a pc, i know how to basically do it, but I want to be 100% sure what iam doing cause i dont want to fuck anything up!
And i have another question: If i want to make a hd image of my current hd and put it on the new hd, how can i do that without having an OS installed on the new hd? is it even possible?

i feel like such a nerd using this all the time
"they're finish before we even started"
Lol ill never forget that

How to build a PC by dikkeman
Transferring the image is usually possible, you just have to uninstall your current IDE-drivers and install the standard ones (before creating the image!), else you will will get prolly a bluescreen.
Can be done with this batchfile: http://www.speedshare.org/download.php?id=B60E56BE12
But it´s better to do a fresh install tbh.
As for the CPU I would've gone for an intel i7 platform because it simply performs a lot better than the AMD Phenom's
the x3 720 beats i7 but its an weird cpu :x
i7 just dont worth the damn money you spend...
are you saying i7 > new AMD Phenom II X4 in gaming? bullshit.
And it costs like 12389478€ too much.

enough food? ;)
DDR3 memory's are going cheaper, but that won't stop from i7 to be a big hungry wallet rig
But if you want to compare 3d Benchmarking, lets take the results of the 3Dmark Vantage CPU score because then you are being fair to the CPU by testing it purely based on CPU power.
I'd take an i7 over a Phenom imo.
reviews i showed you clearly shows the X4 either beats it, or loses 1-2 fps. basically what you are saying is to waste 300-400 euros more for 1-2 more fps, right
3dmark vantage says BARELY about it's performance, it's more of an compression and show off
dont get me wrong, im an huge intel / i7 fan, and i hate amd, i7 obviously takes AMD, but with prices you can clearly see an AMD rig can have better results if it's about price
when DDR3 & x58 chipsets components will go down then you can really recommand it for everyone, unless the AM3 CPUS by AMD at summer will be an huge revolution ;)
I'd be willing to pay 155 more for a rig that outperforms the phenoms massively in other tasks than gaming.
But anyway, why are we even discussing this if the guy doesn't even want to spend an extra 30 euro's to have a 32mb cached 1TB drive instead of a 16mb cached 500GB drive ;)
im just sorry to blow your bubble, m8
4gb of PC3-10600 ddr3 memory costs about 60 euro's
4gb of ddr2 costs about 40 euro's
Samsung EcoGreen F2 HD502HI, 500GB = € 48,80 (ratio = 0.0976 per GB)
Given the fact that the extra 16mb cache and higher density results in better performance, I would surely have gone for the 1TB spinpoint.
:D
When the 4870 is only 20€ expensive but still much better
GDDR5 FTW
Great choice on sapphire though
