The "66666" Gaming Machine

Graphics:XFX 8800 GTS 320 MB

Nvidia’s domination in the graphic card market is near complete right now. Though ATI/AMD has recently launched a slew of DX10 products, they are only playing catch up. Nvidia now offers a variety of DX10 cards ranging from the budget 8500 all the way to flagship 8800 GTX XXX model. The card we have chosen here is the 8800 GTS 320 Mb, which is a mid-level gaming card and offers exceptionally good performance. This is simply due to the fact that unlike normal mid-level cards, which lose multiple features as compared to high-end cards, the 8000 GTS 320 MB, has only had its video memory scaled down. It retains all the other features of its elder brother and this makes it more than capable of running virtually any modern day game without any issues.

The card that we have chosen here is manufactured by XFX and it does not cost the earth. For a more detailed read on the performance of this chipset, please check out our comprehensive review.

Sound: Onboard: HDA Azalia 8 Channel High Definition Audio
Onboard sound has come a long way in recent years. Today's onboard chips are multi-channel capable, and can easily compete with lower-end sound cards like Creative's Audigy 2 ZS. The chipset that the XFX offers is an 8 channel chipset that offers great audio output in the music, video, and gaming.

LAN: Intel Gigabit Ethernet Controller 10/100/1000
This is the standard Intel Gigabit onboard 10/100/1000 LAN that gives a maximum transfer speed of 1000 Mbps. It is fast enough to take care of your broadband internet (most users have a connection speed of 256 Kpbs or 512 kbps). Though Gigabit LAN is already present, most home networks are only capable of handling 100 Mbps speeds. Hence, you have the right firepower in Intel's 10/100/1000 Lan.

I'd def look at the Ati Radeon HD 2900XT as a alternative to the 8800 GTS. If going for the 8800 GTX,,then by all means nVidia is king,,but Ati Radeon HD 2900XT is both cheaper than the 8800 GTS(atleast going by US prices),,and faster in medium range resolutions. Also 2GB RAM is a definite must in any gaming PCs if you're to use it for more than 6 months

"XFX 8800 GTS 320 Mb" Not future proof !
XFX 8800 GTS with 640 MB is a must.

I don't get why to use p5b-vm, one with IGP, when you are using PCIe graphics card. Motherboard should have been plain p5b deluxe.
