Probably I will start my first personal Red Alert 3 review after I finished building my new Quad PC. I simply can't wait to run new RTS and FPS games. Of course, same goes to Window Vista Home Premium OEM. I know, I know, Vista suck. Who care if I can get the Vista license is cheaper than Window XP Pro in Asia.
My only missing parts left is Intel Quad Core Q9400 processor, I really hope I could get it next week or before end of this month. The only sad thing left I won’t be getting is ATI HD4870 graphic card this year. Both my vehicle repairing bill last month and my dead CRT monitor mess up. I have to invest a 22” wide LCD monitor on Dell. I’m going to used Palit GF8500GT Super+ 1GB for temporary setup. Hope next year, I could get a better and faster card from ATI.

if you didnt waste your money on overpriced shit like that cosmos case over there then you would have afforded a 4870 and not had to buy that pile of crap budget GF 8500GT that will give you like 5-20 fps in red alert 3 at the res you run on your monitor @ profile.. because in addition to your quad core processor as 2.66ghz, your setup is bad for gaming (2 > 4). only get quad core for gaming if you are going to get a good graphics card to help it along the way or overclock the processor, in which case you are going to be unable to afford cooling. I have the AMD equivelant except i actually have a good graphics card and i would probably go as far as to say that your graphics card is bottlenecking the cpu - probably at stock aswell. next time get advice before you start putting a system together on a tight budget.
