So I decided to go with pretty much what I was thinking about in the other thread, altough I have been having some problems with blue screens and updating the bios in Windows Vista 64, which is quite a pain, spent a whole day trying to update the bios because it wasn't a simple "download and install" I had to boot up my old hard disk which had xp on it, download and save the files needed there (because they were not compatible with vista) then update the bios then put back the the new harddrive...It took a while to figure out how to it because the shuttle website had everything on xp not vis 64.

Anyways, the graphics card is fab and runs crysis on high :D, I am yet to install steam and other games because I want to make sure this pc runs without anymore blue screens or errors. :D
 
sowwy :( I have had some blue screen issues again, i contacted shuttle and they said it may be compatibillity issues with the two sets of 2x2gb memory. I took out 4gb (one set) and it seems to work ok, only tried it a couple hours though.

Not to be a dick.... but.... I run Crysis on High with AAx8 with 80FPS.... With a 7900GT... :D
Not that big of a deal, just run it in a lower res until you get the performance you want. Running at full res doesn't really make any kind of difference anyways just looks crisper.... but if you want performance then you can't complain. :3
 
I wasnt trying to say it was a big deal, just that my pc will actually play it now, my old 1 didnt.
