Looking to build a PC almost strictly for CS:GO that can get me hopefully 200+ frames in both deathmatch and 5v5 on my 144hz monitor (1080p, low settings). Have put together the build below, but am quite out of the loop on today's hardware; any critique would be great
1) What will you be doing...
I've got one Vista PC, and one XP PC on my network. One of them is wireless (the vista one) and the other is wired(XP).
After much trouble, I can finally access the files on my XP system from my Vista one. Can play them, put them on my HDD and all that, but the case is the opposite on my XP...
I've been looking at laptops lately and I'm really quite stumped as I know nothing about them. My price range is about $1000-$1300 ish and i'm not really sure what to get.

That's one of the ones...
I've got a couple things for sale here that have been in my closet un-used for quite some time, and am just looking to get rid of them. All items are OBO, reasonably of course :)
I will ship to the states. Depending on how much it costs to ship, I may pay half of whatever it is.

My CRT monitor is dead, after like 6 years of using it I guess it's time to move on (my screen vibrates/gives waves at any resolution other than 800x600).
I've been doing LOTS of research lately, and I haven't really came to any sort of a conclusion.. I've heard good and bad things about EVERY...

Logitech G5 [1st edition, 1st Revision]
$30 --> $25
Bought it and used it for a while before switching back to my 518 (I have an emotional attachment to the 518). Its in great condition with the only notable problem being that the small mouseskate is...

Now, I'm not entirely sure that all of you know what this is, but i'll give you a little info :) Basically, it's a mod on the Source engine that is essentially porting 1.6 over to the Source engine, but with a few changes in recoil etc, it's not...
I tried to get my buddy on vent, but his mic isn't working.. I disabled "Microphone" under playback, and now he doesn't hear himself in his headphones, which is a good thing.. But I go into recording and "stereo mix" is selected, where microphone should be.
I cannot change this so microphone...

in the market for something I can use in games aswell as listen to music, i've heard good things about both of these headphones, looking to get a final opinion on these, thanks.
I've got a P4 Northwood 2.6, which should be easily overclockable past 3.0ghz, but I can't seem to get it past 2.8, it just seems to reset even when I try anything past it. Temperature doesn't seem to be the issue, because it is running in the mid-low 20s. I'm not sure if it's this Apevia power...
I'm looking to breath a couple more months of life into this rig, and am wanting to get some other people's opinions.
Lately its hit me as to how bad my frame rate is while recording demos in CSS, and for competitive play it's kind of a nuisance. I'm wondering what kind of frames i'll get in...
Gigabyte GA-8S661FXM MATX
Moved my old motherboard into an Q-Pack case, it all went well.
When I went to boot up the computer I got no video and a bunch of continuous beeps, then it stopped. I'm not sure how many times it beeped.
I was looking over a couple sites and noticed these things, never really payed much attention to them, but i've been wanting some lights in my computer as of late.
One of the questions I have is.. Are they even very bright? I want my computer to light up when its dark, and I usually have a...

They're quite nice actually, just finished playing with them.. Went 32-7 with my L33T crew and my AK blazing.
I was going to buy a new HDD, but then I came to realise that I don't have any extra drive rails. I've looked around places like NCIX, and asked a couple people around my area.. But they can't say they know where to get them.
Can you even buy them?
Anyone have any experience with this headset? I couldn't really dig up that much about it, other than the manufacturer (Sennheiser) specs, and they seem nice from what i've read. They will run me about 100 dollars though, so if you have anything bad to say about them, it'd be nice :P.
I'm...
Within the next month or so, i'll have accumilated up to about $1000, and was thinking about buying a new computer, but decided I might still have some use out of the current one.
So what i'm saying is, is there any way I could upgrade to be able to play such games as Counter Strike: Source...
I havn't been keeping up with anything Intel lately, and am thinking about building an Intel based comp.
Which is the best motherboard at the moment? (LGA775 specifically)
I'm looking for some nice gaming headphones that I can use at a large LANparty, could anyone direct me to a place that I may get some for under 100 bucks?
Most people I know don't use one, and some maybe have never even heard of them. But I know some of you out there use them. If you can give me your opinion, and your experiences with them would be great, i've also attached a survey for Yes/No.
I've never used a Band when building, just using...
I remember a long time ago, these guys use to make computers at future-shop, the way you wanted them. One of my rigs is a Cicero, I bought it from that program a year or two back. I've noticed that they are no longer providing this service, anyone know?
I havn't found they're official site...
Has anyone played it? I'm looking to buy it. It looks like really good game, i've seen a couple videos of it but I need some actual information before I buy it. But from what i've seen its very good looking, except the gun textures make it seem like the guns are brand new.

Yes I know what your thinking, and I agree.
I just need some simply opinions on this, some of them seem pretty good deals, but it doesn't sound too reliable.
Also, i'm Canadian as you can tell.
