How about the monitor? Maybe I missed that part...

I would now hardly go for anything that supports anything less than 1920x1080,or, preferably 1920x1200 or more.

Umm, the system you configured sounds good. Just that the price is a bit scary.

Dude, if you can fly to Belgrade, you could get it all for approx. $1500-$1600... assuming you don't pay the import duty when you take it home

plus, any warranty claim would be a nightmare.

So, when you suppose to get your new system?

Nearly a month ago, Xacoon got his new computer. The following night, gremlins came out and did what they do best. That explains his long absence from this forum :blink:
