Dont go with Dual monitors, they're annoying. Invest in something even bigger, put it back into the hardware, or save it.
Title: High-End PC
Post by: Barney on October 30, 2007, 04:17:22 AM: Dual monitors are actually very useful as I've found out. I was never really into the dual monitor thing but when my mum got her new computer there was a spare LCD, so I took it and I can now just dump programs like MSN, skype, my mp3 folder, cpu/gpu temp programs etc. on it and I can access everything while still in-game. It's also handy doing photoshop work having all your pics on one screen and editing them on the other, or editing a video and having your secondary monitor as a preview window so you have more space to edit. I use a 22" and a 17" so it's not really overkill and I got the LCD for free anyway, so why not lol.

It'll prolly be next year before I get it.

And also, is it possable to have 2TB of HDs in your comp? I plan on having 2TB internal and 2TB external.
(Basicly I don't wanna have to buy any upgrades for this thing for a VERY long time.)

Post by: Ferσή on October 30, 2007, 01:29:11 PM: Umm.. you cant exactly plan a pc build a year early lol. A month in advance is even pushing it. But yeah you can hold up to like 16TB+ me thinks the only limit is your case.

Post by: BoBsaget on October 30, 2007, 02:06:59 PM: Wow, you'll never need a pc which would coust more then 1500 dollars.. NEVER I TELL YOU!!!!!!!

Computers are a bad investement, and I don't get why people would need two video cards. One is more then enough.. The money you save with buying only one, is a step towards a newer/better model in the future. I really don't believe that anyone on here needs a pc that would coust more then $1500,-

Post by: Ferσή on October 30, 2007, 02:13:35 PM: ^true even tho i think anything over $2000 is what he means

Post by: Ferσή on October 30, 2007, 07:03:00 PM: The most you will get out a $3000 computer is about 3 years. In a year it will be already outdated. You can only go so far in the market and the most you can spend is about $2000 unless you get like water cooling, SLI, Skulltrail etc.
Title: High-End PC
Post by: Cody on October 30, 2007, 07:13:08 PM: I don't mind if it's outdated, as long as it can run the newest games on high settings I really don't give a shizzle.

yeah, but crysis' optimization is shit, so its not really a matter of how good your hardware is, but how shitty their software is

Your system prlly isnt any better then mine since their multicore optimization is a joke, and I bet SLI for them is as well.
