    I was thinking of getting a G5,
    as for the sound card, a default is a fine.

    My processor im content with, im thinking of the ATI 2900xt as one i really want, considering it works well with catalyst drivers, and its top of the line.

    im wanting some more advice.

    Thanks guys.
    ok kid. we've never even played together and your hair looks like a mop covered in **** stains. g5 is alright, my friend has one.

            I agree with g4z33b0... a microsoft mouse owns. It's awesome.

            I'd suggest c2d, and a 8600 or 7900.

                Great sound card, but you'll have to wait for the next product run.

                Buy AUZEN Auzen X-Fi Prelude 7.1 7.1 Channels 24-bit 96KHz PCI Interface Sound Card with fast shipping and top-rated customer service. Once you know, you Newegg!

                  Why would you want a seperate sound card? I find anything built into the mobo is fine. Go for decent ram (I use 2 gigs of mushkin pc6400 ram) a good video card (pay atleast 200 dollars) and basically go from there. Video card is very key when you want a higher framerate, with my geforce 8800 GTS 640 mb I can pull off 140fps on World of Warcraft without much trouble.

                    Listen to me,
                    DO NOT GET VISTA.
                    Also,
                    Check out this card. I bought it from Newegg.com not too long ago.
                    It can run TF2 on highest settings, full-screen @ 1280x768.

                    Buy SAPPHIRE Radeon X1650 512MB GDDR2 PCI Express x16 Graphics Card 100195L with fast shipping and top-rated customer service. Once you know, you Newegg!


                    No matter what the reviews are, know this- It works perfectly for me.
                    Source games run full screen on highest settings... Even anti-aliasing and HDR...

                    I say buy it; its cheap and its good.
                    Sincerely,

                      1280x768 isn't too great of a resolution, kyle.

                      Might also want to contemplate a DX10 card, since you'll probably want to get Vista once SP1 is released.

                      Edit: nevermind your current card is fine and dx10. It's about the same as my card (8600 GTS) but with a faster core clock, and I can run games much more intensive than TF2 at high res and good settings.

                        I got an NVidia GeForce 8600 and it runs TF2 without ANY flaws. I can play most things right now at full settings.

                        "Oh, just my cock." Replied Foil.
                        "That just will not do." was keywii's response as she lunged for the scissors, pulled the blades apart, and clamped them down on the base of foil's shaft. Blood start gushing out of the wound where his penis used to be.
                        "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" Yelled Foil in horror.
                        "Don't worry. I'm a wizard" uttered Keywii. And with that, Foil's penis grew back.
