My dad is helping me rig up my a new compie and he sent me this and I'm wondering if it's good, looks good to me imho!

Pretty good rig, but get an nVidia card.

Why? I used to like nVidia but I've been using Radeon for so long I can't imagine life without it

Well fine, that works too. It's not a huge difference.

But in my experience, ATI is to nVidia like what AMD is to Intel.

I like all of that stuff!  However, I'm a cheap person, so it wouldn't hurt to cut some corners. Maybe some used parts? Why not use AMD instead?

(I'm an, uh, AMD stockholder by the way...)

Tee hee, so you admit AMD cuts corners?

Quote from: SnakeClock;1395796Tee hee, so you admit AMD cuts corners?

Well they must, seeing how Intel's stock price is over $100 and AMD's is just over $6.

But, uh... they pass the savings on to you!
