Re: calling all computer geeks

The only thing I would definetly change would be the harddrive.

And if its just not enouph storage you could just grab a 250gb or whatever you would need for other data (music/pics whatever)

Depending on how hard core you would want to go, you could upgrade to the 9800 GX2! You would need to change your power supply as well because it takes an 8pin. I would also check out this memery here.

Re: calling all computer geeks

i like the fact that that hard drive is 10000 RPM and i guess i could just buy another 7200 RPM hard drive and then run both with the OS on the 10000
