Well, it's time to upgrade my system. I've been poking around newegg for a while now, and I think I'm happy with what I've picked out, and the prices are doable for me.
I was hoping I could get some input on what I picked out. I just want to make sure that all these things will play nice together, and whether I'm overlooking some important specs. And any recommendations for similar components that would be a better bang for the buck would be nice, too.
So here they are:
