I'm not going to buy a new computer, just going to upgrade mine, already have it mostly done, just going to get a new mother board at some point so I can increase the RAM, my current mother board will only take 2 1gig RAM cards

It's already done
I spent about 2,300 today on a new computer, it's going to be custom built so it should be here within the week or two. I'll post all the details when I get it, but lets just say it's a step down from the best.

Dude, seriously, you spent that much money on something I coulda probably built for you at HALF that price?

Need some suggestions for a new computer - Hanak - 11-02-2010
Here are my specs:
3.21 quad core
8 gigs of ram DDR3
640 gig hd (I get the ones with warranties so this was all my budget could take)
2 crossfired ATI Radeon HD 5770s for a total of 2 gigs of DDR5 video ram
I payed around $1300 for that.
If you include the 52" big screen I got for $900 then the total would be $2200
But if for some reason you would also include my 3 23" HDMI ACER widescreens then you would bring the total to right at $2600.

LOL! That is a big monitor. =P My computer desk isn't big enough to run multiple monitors, or I would.

Their price tag for everything: $2300 (approx.)
My price tag for everything: $1885 + s+h
Not to mention the fact that I could have offered you a little bit of product knowledge. Such as it's a mistake to put a MICRO ATX board into a FULL ATX tower. Ya spent $250 on the case alone, dude. For that price, those fans in that case better be doin' more than blowing your CPU.

$300-$400 for custom building isn't bad. I wouldnt do it for less. Micro ATX is odd but nothing wrong with it being in a full sized case.
