New Rig 12th June 1009

Okay, so I wanted to hook up my PC directly to my new Samsung LCD LE40A656 100Hz TV.

I want to be able to play the latest games as well as view full HD movies. So, I bought a memory pair, a new motherboard which supports SPDIF digital out (The sound needs to go to my 5.1 surround set) and a good gfx card for a reasonable price.

This is my old setup:

  • Q6600 Core2Quad @ 2.4Ghz
  • Asus P5B-Deluxe (4GB DDR2 RAM Support)
  • Corsair DDR2 2GB (2x1) Value @ 667Hz
  • EVGA 7950GT XXX 512MB version
  • PSU Corsair 500Watt Modular
  • LG L204WT @ 1680 x 1050
  • Logitech G15 Gaming keyboard + MX518 Mouse
  • Logitech X-540 5.1 Surround

This is the new setup:

  • Q6600 Core2Quad @ 2.4Ghz
  • ASrock P45TS (with 16GB RAM support and SPDIF Digital Out)
  • OCZ DDR2 4GB (2x2) High Platinum 5-5-5-18 @ 1066Hz
  • EVGA GTX 260 Core 216 SuperClocked Edition 896mb
  • PSU Corsair 500Watt Modular
  • LG L204WT @ 1680 x 1050
  • Logitech G15 Gaming Keyboard + MX518 Mouse
  • Logitech X-540 5.1 Surround

Oh, and in case you're wondering what the new avatar is about, it's Max Payne 3 of course !!!
