| and the Ti4200? with vidcard & CPU OC'ed +higher FSB I'll get +10K 3dmarks, that's sufficient. a Ti4200 gets here on both rigs ~11K marks  |

| Hmm just bought R9800Pro and logitech 680. Don't ask me about budget updates anytime soon. Anyway, My Epox still works fine. Prolly because everything on it is cooled. (NB-SB-MOSFET and Vchip). Only when it's over 45°C CPU it get's rather cranky on the mem part. I do think it's the mem itself however. Buy some extra memory and a good vidcard. That's my opinion. |

| ehm, lol estimated money flow = WRONG forgot to add: -weekend work in september: ~6 days, 5-9 hours a day -I don't get 5€/hour as I expected, but ~7.3€/hour  quite hard to estimate how much I'll get, I think I'll work 20days, 5-9 hours a day. I've worked last 3 days, going to get paid +- 160€  If I'm lucky, I'll get something like 1000€ this month :grin: I'll get a R9600, and buy a better one once DoomIII is out. I'm also experimenting with watercooling so I don't want to cool real expensive stuff in the beginning |

| good idea, killed my direct die cooled AMD K6 200 that way. It did get to 266 (with a lot of effort). I do need H2O in this heat however. |

| I'll order @ tones, they've got everything in stock Sapphire Radeon 9600 128MB 139.90 Abit NF7-S V2.0 118.40 - I don't know a lot of Ati cards, is the brand + size of mem OK? - Still don't know what mem to choose. i can a) buy another stick of Corsair: Corsair DDRAM 256MB PC3500 C2 + HSP, costs 100€ b) sell the corsair ( or put it in backup rig if I don't get enough for it) and get other mem: what mem to choose.... |

| I'm going to get an Asus board instead of an Abit because the BIOS isn't really great :/ |
