DNA June 23, 2008 Share DNA Member June 23, 2008 (edited) With the help of Cujo on which direction I should go I am doing a little rebuild b4 FF. I should have all the parts in by weeks end. I am changing from: Asus A8n-deluxe (939) MB 2gb DDR Gen ram AMB Opty 165 (Stock cooling) 8800 GTS I am changing to: e8400 w/ artic freezer 7 cooler Mem MB and I am sticking with my 8800 for now. I think my 3D Mark score last month was something like 8900's it may have been a little lower or higher but I think it was around there. I have heard these chips can easily be O.C. to 4+ so I think this should be a major inprovement from my old system. I will see what the new mark score is this w/e YEA!!!

DNA June 25, 2008 Author Share DNA Member June 25, 2008 (edited) If you're looking to sell the ram let me know. Is it 2x1GB dimms? Yes, I would say $40+ shipping...Good? I had thought about 50, but I thought that $40 was a better deal for someone. Edited June 25, 2008 by DNA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
