Rem's upgraded his PC!
Hi guys, yes, I had a disaster on my gaming PC, so I decided to upgrade and replace bits and go to Vista. I'm still in the middle of installing everything, but so far it works! Here's the spec's. Seem like good components and I think this will work well. Not so sure about Vista 64 yet tho. V nice OS, but seems there's not many drivers and apps (eg. antivirus!) that are really built for it. But the most important thing - cs works
(prices from Computer and Parts Land in Melb) Vista Ultimate 64 OEM $279 Intel core 2 Duo E6600 $302 2Gb Kingston Twin 5300 $98 Seagate 320Gb Sata II $105 ASUS P5K Deluxe motherboard $349 ASUS 8800 GTS 320 Mb graphics $439 (was out of stock, so bought it from Scorptech for $469) ASUS 1814BL DVD burner $55 Thermaltake Bach Case $179 Thermaltake TP600 600w Power supply $179

well, I've got my most important games working now, and steam was dead easy to get going! just copied over my old files and double-clicked steam.exe, and it worked!!! UFO Aftershock took ages to get going, partly due to Vista 64 issues, and partly due to sticking in a new graphics card. I've got the core hardware going, but still a few more drivers to add. I think V64 is definitely the way to go.
but then again, if I didn't have to rebuild, I'd be using XP 32 quite happily still!!!
