Well I heard there was another sound card out there that is much better than creative, although I can not remember the name of it at all.

lexicon omega..

that's some professional shit fury...

TastyTaste · « **Reply #29 on:** September 25, 2010, 02:35:46 PM »

you can get cheap Asus one or Chaintech or from M Audio as well. If you wanna go PRo then fuck Lexicon go with a Focusrite Saffire

fury · « **Reply #30 on:** September 25, 2010, 04:59:24 PM »

i dont like asus sound cards,they just clone creative..also chaintech is low quality shit in a low quality box.
lexicon is top of the line..focusrite is fine too but a lil bit pricey compared to lexicon which is (to me) the best bang for your buck..(i had a lexicon processor unit plus some other PA shit and they took beating after beating)

also,tasty sucks dicks in dark alleys..but you already knew that

That samsung HD is great for storing your data, but I'd invest in something like a Western Digital black series HD. They're made for read/write performance where as green are more power saving. So get that, but Put in a smaller HD like 300 GB for your windows installation and programs. Then use the 2tb drive to store all of your music and movies.

tlopez · « **Reply #35 on:** October 01, 2010, 01:48:17 PM »

was thinking of partition system for windows, linux and the rest while having the 2nd drive in raid.
i'm not sure whether the cooler and powers upply are good tho, and tips as to which one seeing as my budget has increased to 2000 Euros

TastyTaste · « **Reply #36 on:** October 04, 2010, 12:33:25 PM »

you can basically build my rig under 2000 euros

TastyTaste · « **Reply #37 on:** October 07, 2010, 09:58:59 AM »

tigerdirect has good sale for those on the cheap:

Ban Em All · « **Reply #38 on:** October 17, 2010, 10:43:39 PM »

gpu isn't the greatest in that one, but for the price, its a good deal.

pixiestyx · « **Reply #39 on:** October 17, 2010, 10:56:53 PM »

quad sucks, high clock speed is the winner, use to have 2.2 ghz quad, was shit on game, now i have 2.8 ghz 3 core cpu, instant increase in performance.

Not on that shitty board, the capacitors are exposed, no heat sink, it would blue screen before you made it past start up.

that add is misadvertising...main title says 4gigs,then below it states crucial 2048mb ddr2

somebody's lying

Ban Em All · « **Reply #44 on:** October 19, 2010, 09:54:04 PM »

good eye fury, and nice gif pixie.

maybe there are two 2 gig sticks.

pixiestyx · « **Reply #45 on:** October 27, 2010, 11:08:11 AM »

more tiger direct adds, this one is actually pretty decent, minus the PSU. Just get a better PSU, grab a graphics card, OS HD, OS, and possibly 2nd stick of ram and you've got a decent computer.

TastyTaste · « **Reply #46 on:** October 28, 2010, 08:17:37 AM »

yea saw that deal a little while ago, best bang for the buck right there (especially for games)

That's not Euros, its just germanic way of writing numbers, comma to show decimals and periods for large numerations.
