I'm building a new system this week and I was hoping some experts could give me some suggestions on it.
This is what I'm getting:
CPU: AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+
MOBO: ASUS A8N32-SLI Deluxe
GFX: XFX NVidia GF7900GT 256MB 550MHz
PSU: Enermax Liberty 500W
SOUND: Creative SB X-Fi Xtrememusic
CASE: Antec P180B
The HDs and memory are coming from my previous system.
Questions:
1. I have 1GB of Corsair PC4000 DDR (4x256MB) that I was going to use. Would it be better to get 2GB of a low latency PC3200 for the new system, or just use what I have?
2. I can't really spend much more than I already have decided on, but do you have any suggestions / changes for the above shopping list?
FYI - This sytem is mostly for gaming.
Thanks |
how about you skip on the creative BS card, skip the amd/athlon altogether, buy a conroe with a nice compatible mobo coming out pretty soon
