Thread: Building a computer? Need advice/suggestions? Come here!

    Interesting to see that Xet's comp specs are those in the ultimate rig, ha. Done any experimenting with that audio console yet? /cough

    Also, if anyone intends to buy 5.1 speakers, I'll make the decision easy for you: Logitech Z-5500.

    Speakers!
    Dirt Poor: Logitech LS21 2.1 System $29.99
    Low End: Logitech X-240 2.1 System $49.99
    Mid Range: Logitech X-540 5.1 System $99.99
    High End: Logitech G-51 5.1 System $199.99
    Ultimate: Logitech Z-5500 5.1 System $399.95

    I have worked with all 5 of these systems, and I can say that even low end sounds really good. Dirt poor is, well, a bit fuzzy, bit they're not bad for the price. I would suggest saving the extra $20.

    Edit- The S-220 is one system I've always had trouble with. After very little use, the woofer hums. And it gets louder.... and louder... and louder. Save an extra $7 for the LS21.
    Edit2- I probably should have looked at NewEgg, huh? XD Thanks for the catch, Xet.

    The LS21 doesn't cost an extra $7, but I did switch them. Thanks for the input.

    It's better than the Creative one, not to mention cheaper.
