Newegg is da bomb. No lie. They are great. I suggest them 110% I
ordered a hard drive and it got here in 4 days with regular shipping.
And thats only cause I ordered late at night.

I have seen that case before and I utterly hate it. Also, i would suggest the MSI 6600GT over the XFX. ------------- |

Ok, but why? why do you hate the case, and why do you suggest the other card? |

| I wish Newegg shipped to Canada. I had built my computer with parts from newegg until I contacted them about shipping. |

i suggest you get the single 512mb stick of ram than the 2x 256mb. the 2 sticks will slow you down. -------------

Newegg.com is probably the best website for buying those kind of things. Everything about them is great. Think of them as the County Paintball of Computers except bigger. That reminds me, I should check out County right now. ------------- I need to find smaller pictures for my profile. |

MSI has served me well, my POS ti4200 has held up through the years. Also, go with dual channel (256x2) over a single stick. The case, i just don't like the look. Im not sure about air flow or anything like that. ------------- |

Oh, well from what I have heard from friends and people at school, that card is really good, the case, I like the looks, and that ram is 256X2. I will look at the other card and thanks for the opinions. |

XFX is not bad, don't get me wrong they make a good card but the MSI
reputation is better in my opinion, and the MSI 6600GT is like 10
dollars cheaper.

I got my BFG Nvidia 6800 OC at Best Buy for what Newegg was selling 6600gt's for. I have ordered my Logitech 5300E 5.1 speakers and my Audigy ES soundcard. I used 2 day shipping, and everything arrived on time and in good packaging. Everything was as they said, and it arrived quickly. Highly reccomended. -------------

I'd rather get 1 stick of 512mb ram, leaves room for more expansion later.

Well...youre buying a video card with two DV-I connectors...Theres no analog..Analog connector is usually blue and i think 12 holes..DV-I is that big white one. -------------

Just get a DVI to VGA adapter, there are like 4 bucks on newegg. I got on for my FX5500 so i can run dual monitors.

Newegg is great, I've been ordering from them since February of last
year. The only time I order anywhere else is if I can't find a
part on their site (for instance, I ordered some OCZ Gold VX from
directron since newegg doesn't have it in stock right now).
Shipping is top notch, I've only had to RMA one item and the process
was smooth and fast.
