Ok, While I know my current rig won't run H2V especially since the Vidcard's on it's last legs. I've been researching some nice components for an upgrade.
Motherboard: EVGA 122-M2-NF59-TR Socket AM2 NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI MCP ATX AMD Motherboard <--- Heard good things about EVGA, are they true?
Processor: AMD Athlon 64 X2 5600+ Windsor 2.8GHz 2 x 1MB L2 Cache Socket AM2 Processor <---I'm an AMD guy, so don't bother telling me Intel is better, I don't care, unless you can give me a good enough reason.
GPU: connect3D 3061 Radeon X1950 CrossFire Edition 512MB 256-bit GDDR4 PCI Express x16 Video Card <---Again, I'm an ATI guy, so unless you have a good reason, I don't want to hear how Nvidia is better blah blah blah. I've heard Crossfire allows you to double your GPU power by buying a second card, so that's what I've been thinking about until the New DX10's come down in price a smidgeon.
RAM: CORSAIR XMS2 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit Desktop Memory <---Heard really good things about Corsair.
What I need some advice on is what kind of powersupply I should get with that. Since I'm fairly certain the one I have isn't up to snuff.
I found a CORSAIR CMPSU-620HX ATX12V v2.2 and EPS12V 2.91 620W Power Supply, on newegg and it looks pretty nice. But I'm open to suggestions on another brand/wattage/whatever. Since I haven't paid much attention to PSU's over the years.
