Hi
I am going to be building a new system for gaming.
I'm thinking specifically Skyrim and similar games.
I think Skyrim is optimized for Nivida more so than the Radeon.
I want to be able to load a lot of high-res textures.
I want it super smooth on full graphics.
1920x1080 will be the resolution I'll be using through a large plasma TV.
Im not interested in 3 monitors. Skyrim looks brilliant on a quality plasma.
Obviously the GFX must have HDMI
120gb on SSD is plenty for me too.
PC to ONKYO RECEIVER via hdmi
ONKYO RECEIVER to PANASONIC PLASMA via hdmi
Dolby Digital DTS - 5.1 Surround Sound Speakers
here's what I'm considering.
Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit OEM $99.00
CoolerMaster RC-912A-KWN1 HAF912 Advance Ver w Window $98.50
Microsoft Wired Keyboard 600 $11.00
