Well, I have jsut got a new comp, 3 months ago, and im wondering if its good for gaming, and also if I paid a good price for it. Its a HP Media Center PC m1195c Available Expansion Bays: No Available Expansion Slots: 1 x PCI Brand: HP (Hewlett Packard) Intel Cache: 1MB L2 Disk Drive: No Fax/Modem: V.92 56K Graphics Card: 128MB Radeon 00 PCI-Express Hard Drive: 250GB 7200RPM SATA Hard Drive I/O Ports: See The Features Section Included Software: See The Features Section Monitor Included: Monitor Not Included Network Card: 10/100 Ethernet Optical Drives: 8X Dual Layer DVD+/-RW And DVD-ROM Drive Other Control Devices: No Preloaded Operating System: Windows Media Center 2005 Edition Processor Speed: 3.2GHz Processor Type: Intel Pentium 4 540 RAM: 512MB PC3200 DDR SDRAM Exp To 2GB Sound Card: Integrated Sound Card Speaker Type: No System Bus: 800MHz Warranty/Service Plans: 90 Days Limited **** I also have around 500 more megs or ram cards lying around, can i jsut instert them, andill havethe ram, or do i have ot get drivers? I paid 680~ USD for it, refurbished. Did i get a good deal, and will it run Doom 3 at optimal speed?
what the hell you talking about, thats a awesome pc, you got good speed a good pci-EXPRESS graphic card and a 512 ram which is great, so you can like play any game that comes out on like good graphic settings
I highly doubt it could run at top speed... Its ok for 680..you could probly do better..especially by building it urself. EDIT: I wouldnt say its an awesome pc^ but its pretty decent wait so it is pci-e....ok thats better then
envy, no, good deal, sort of. for about 750 my friend got an Athlon 3700+ 1gig of DDR400 dual channel ram, XP media center, and radeon x200 GFX, 250gig SATA HDD and an MSI mobo supporting up to 4 gigs ram(3gigs DDR400) and dual channel ram support. As for DDR RAM, no drivers needed but they must have matching clock speeds or else your computer won't even start up(no real damage done, just remove the 512MB strip from the DIMM slot)
