skylin3lov3r,
Yeah, I had a chat with a pc enthusiast colleague of mine. He stressed on good casing and power unit. Cooler master would be a good choice. I'll opt for a good casing that's about RM400-500 inclusive of power supply. He also suggested that I get 2 x 512MB RAM for dual channel purposes. Apparently, he said 2 x 512MB versus 1 x 1GB RAM, the 2 x 512MB will give a better performance. He also mentioned that 256MB of video ram would be sufficient and I could do a SLI setup later on if required. Well, I'll most probably settle in for an Asus mobo, perhaps with a budget of about RM600 or so. Graphics card, he suggested, to be around the range of RM800 - RM1000. My main focus would be mobo, video card, processor and RAM. The rest wouldn't do much to performance. Am thinking of AMD AM2 processor. hehe
As for car, yeah, if I have extra's, I'd mod my car. I won't do engine transplant, though, as I'm satisfied for now with my stock engine's performance. Future plans for my engine would probably be PowerZone's performance cam shafts, cam pulley, suitable exhaust system from exhaust manifold till rear, fully adjustable abs, stainless steel air intake pipe wrapped with heat shield (have to find a suitable one), port and polish, maybe Haltech or MicroTech engine management, sound proof my whole car with industrial standard heat rejecting foil on roof, bucket seats with harnesses, custom wide wheel arches (you'll be surprised how my silly 15" rims can touch my front fender when I corner hard enough), and if I dream more, perhaps full aluminium radiator and silicon hoses, metal gaskets where applicable, performance plug cables and iridium plugs, semi racing clutch, probably 1 decent amplifier, a pair of tough and decent component speakers and probably 1 pair of sub woofers. Now that should all set me back at a price of a good amount of down payment for a good decent car. hahahahaha But imagine if I take those car modification money to build a new gaming rig. buahahahaha
