Ok i confess i should know more about this stuff since well it is my job
however I do not deal much with hardware everything we buy is underwarrenty so all i deal with is troubleshooting software and
most of it is custom stuff that is proprietary to the department


so I orderd a new computer first one in 7 years.
I built this one myself but had alot of issues when i just got
the parts and went for it.... was really a nightmare .........

So i orderd a turn key gaming system this time hopefuly it
i'll have no issues i am also kinda pissed i have to run vista 64 vs xp pro
good ol xp pro i know it like the back of my hand .......................

so this is the system i am having built note i have changed the original config from raid 0 to raid 1 after looking at some articles and deciding what was more important


so this is what i put together and now am waiting for .
i hate to wait but you can never get anything decent
off the shelf.......
