Custom made PC

[Michael]

Regardless of the price, what will be the BEST combination of a custom made PC? What are the best respective part to choose?

We will be here a while if we tell you every part...  

For your video card, NVIDIA is supposed to be better, but I favor ATI.

For your processor, if you're into gaming, an AMD chip would be better than Intel...

RAM, I don't favor a specific brand. I would say 2GB if you're a really serious gamer.

HD, I like Maxtor. Go for no less than 160GB if you will be playing today's games.

It all depends on your uses for a computer (which you didn't state) and your budget. that's like asking "What's the best flavor of ice cream? or What's the best car? It depennds.

Rum & Raisin ice cream & Ford cars are the best, everyone knows that.

[GX1_Man]

Chocolate Raspberry Truffle and Isuzu.

But Ford isn't the best if you work there or have a family member who works there... (The big employee cut a bit ago)  See, it depends

If you plan to get the most pimped out system and you're going for gaming.. I'd go with a motherboard that supports SLI technology (with two evga nvidia 7800 gtx's), dual-core processor, 2+ gb ram, 200+gb hard drive, dual layer dvd rw's, a power supply of 600+ watts, 19+ inch LCD monitor, optical mouse... Any other addons?  lol maybe a nice sound card or something.. and some nice top notch games to play =)

LOL .......Based on your post .....Is this a test .......?
Well ok .......lets see ..........
Do you want the very latest and greatest?
Are you into d/L and burning movies ?
Are you a gamer ?......or do you just want to do what you do now ........
Play the odd game , surf the net , send and receive Email , Instant message .....yada yada yada .
Are you planning on using this machine for business or pleasure ?
Are you planning on building this pc yourself ......and do you have the knowledge and experience to complete the build ?

Once you decide what you want to use it for....we can probably point you in the right direction .

Sorry guys for late response to the thread...been busy..

As I mentioned in the first post, let's assume that my budget is unlimited.
Therefore we can go for the latest and greatest.
And the combination is to be custom built.

I use the computer to play games (all kind), graphical work (2-D & 3D), multimedia editing (audio & video), programming, surf net of course, and what else....basically that's it.
