We're Very Close On The New Rig.....Very Close

Thermaltake PSU's are OK. I would never put one into a serious machine though.

I've got a TT 700w psu in my gaming rig. Never had a problem with voltages at all.

Yea, i'm not slating them or anything. Just pointing out that there are much better PSU's out there. Sometimes for the same price.

Looks like a nice system. Good luck and enjoy.

why not vista?

It's a piece of **** with no hope in it's future. MS is already looking to bring out "Windows 7" in late 2009 since Vista has done so horribly. I know it has it's good points, but I can get XP to do almost everything Vista can, and better at that imo. And I can live without DX10 for the moment tyvm.

[Shazbot]

I use Vist 64 Ultimate and I like it. Everyone has different tastes. Go figure.

[{CLR}geneSW]

There are "ways" to get dx10 to run on windows XP... I won't mention them here though. But lets just say that because windows XP and Vista are very similar....

[Shazbot]

As I understand it there are ways to enable certain DX10 features on XP but not all of them, and those that are enabled do not work the same way as on Vista.

A picture is worth a thousand words this case when mentioning Vista.
The little OS that never should.
Microsoft should have never told the marketplace when it was going to be available.
There are arguements on both sides, and being that I play the game in the marketplace at the table beside Microsoft, SAP, Oracle, and sometimes one more, I'll tell you that the Marketplace dictated the release on this.

If they hadnt sent it out, they would have been crucified. They did, and they are crucifide. They should have taken a stronger stance, invested in XP, alongside Vista, and simply bore the brunt. At that rate, Vista would have been ready this year, and would have been a much better product.

The rig was put on hold, when a strange person on the other side of the negotiation table waved large wads of cash and a compensation package that doubled my base and quadrupled my Sales Comp Plan.

I am in week 2 over here, and it's a lot of work, but a complete blast.
I'll update this computer thread when the PHAT bonus check arrives next week.
