http://hardware.gotfrag.com/portal/story/30132/ Scrap the 7600GS and use the onboard video. Comments on your list, why two PSU's and extra fans?
link and is it the same socket type and if anyone can build a computer ( list all the parts and links to newegg.com ) that is almost as good for about under 400 bucks ill reward u with 20 credits
so far I've determined a few things... you haven't listened to anything on this part of the site. p4s are mroe or less absoltete... AGP is dead... on a low budget... the crippled PD 805 is a much better deal than the cirppled p4,. it's essentially two of them, if not that then the a64 3500+ kills the cripled 2.6GHz p4 w/o HT x800GTO PCI-e, 20$ less get this case/PSU better one the whole http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16811129158 can't say anything bad about the ram, except that it won't be at that price within 24 hours... don't buy case fans from newegg shipping costs mroe than the fan... and you won't be doing much OCing unless you get abetterboard EDIT: opn the low end, furious' build is pretty good for a singel core system, other than the fact that the 3500+ sells for 109 on newegg right now...
i have to ask what is pci express lite 16x cuz the mobo i posted comes with AGP 8x and PCI-E 16x so wtf is it really a nomral PCI-E for gfx cards? and agp is not dead but dieing slowy. and i really dont plan on overclocking. and what do u mean by the ram wont be that price in 24 hours?
And I really don't see the point of getting the extra case fans or the rediculous 'vent', why not skip those and work on a better gpu/cpu/mobo for the system?
k, on a budget with some upgradeability... on a budget with gaming in mind... a64 3500+ 113$ farcry included with combo package... http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16819103633 1GB OCZ gold DDR2-667 ram 80$ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16820227046 Biostar motherboard(decent ovrclocker!!!) 74$ http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16813138027 x800GTO 95$ after rebate http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814131425 power suply/CASE do w/e i recomend this though, fairly good PSU and a deent case. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16811129158
when k8l comes out or whatever, you should be able to upgrade there... also you should be abel tog et some moderate overclocking in. you might be able tog et it to 2.7-8GHz without too much effort if you're lucky. (remember, athlons operate more efficiently at a given setting than a p4, so don't say it's only X ghz and this is Yghz i shoulda gotten Y, GHz are only accurate when comparing two of the exact same thing...) another option is get a Pentium D 805 insteed. it won't be as upgradeable(conroe aka Core 2 isn't comaptabel with all but the highend motherboars) unless you swap out the motherboard later, but it's dual core and if you're lucky you should be able to push out around 4GHz(you'll need a decent moterhbaord for that though...) at which point it will game compareable to the 3500+ on stock and multitask and do most other things way better...
ok she said yes so heres what im getting MotherBoard - SOLTEK SL-K8AV2-R1L Socket 754 VIA K8T800 ATX AMD Motherboard http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16813180075 $43.99 Processor - AMD Athlon 64 3200+ Newcastle 1600MHz HT 512KB L2 Cache Socket 754 Processor http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16819103483 $109.00 Hard Drive - Western Digital Caviar SE WD800JD 80GB 7200 RPM 8MB Cache SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16822135106 $43.99 Video Card - POWERCOLOR X800GTO AGP 256MB Radeon X800GTO 256MB 256-bit GDDR3 AGP 4X/8X Video Card http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814131010 $155.00 Case - RAIDMAX xA Combo Pack ATX-568WBP Black Computer Case With Side Panel Window http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16811156043 $49.99 RAM - CORSAIR ValueSelect 512MB (2 x 256MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM Unbuffered DDR 400 (PC 3200) Dual Channel Kit System Memory http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16820145477 $45.99 PSU - ATADC PSRPP550-B ATX12V 550W Power Supply 110/220V http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16817704006 $24.99 CD-ROM - BenQ Black E-IDE/ATAPI CD-ROM Drive Model 656A BK http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16827101666 $11.99 DVD-ROM - LITE-ON Black ATAPI/E-IDE DVD-ROM Drive Model SHD-16P1S http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16827106028 $18.99 Cooling Fan One - COOLMAX CM-825-UV(Blue) Cooling Fan http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16835130009 $4.49 Cooling Fan Two - COOLMAX CM-825-UV(Blue) Cooling Fan http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16835130009 $4.49 Floppy Drive - NEC Black Internal Floppy Drive Model FD1231H-302 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16821152005 $5.99
I would suggest 1x 512 MB, leaves it more upgradable if you happen to scrape up another $40 and you can make it 1 GB, which would be a relativly nice computer.
