Well it's about time my pc gets upgraded. This is what i had in mind of buying: Mobo: GigaByte K8NSC-939 (Retail, sound, Gb-LAN, RAID) € 79,- Processor: Athlon64 3200+ (2.0 GHz) € 139,- Memory: (on top of my 512MB Ram) Kingston DIMM 512 MB (Retail, SD133-X64-C3) € 89,- Power supply: Q-Tec 13263 Low Noise (Retail) € 22,- Graph Card: Asus V9999/TD (Retail, DVI, TV-Out) (6800) € 129,- Now my question is will this setup last me for another 2 years? Thanks.
everything looks fine except the graphix card. I dont know anything about that and neither the psu. I would imagine that you'd probably need a better psu with all the new dvd technology coming out. But thats just my 2 cents
If you get that 6800 vanila try and unlock the pipes to a GT. The psu is cheap and tacky at least get a cheap branded one. For example a Thermaltake TR2 430Watts. its cheap and is silent.
since that board has pci-e get this video card : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16814102574 that will last you for like the next 3 years with all the new games power supply : http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?...N82E16817153023 get this power supply its a good one and will power your rig and even if you add stuff it will still power it
Go for a branded PSU like the reputable companies eg Antec, ThermalTake,Enermax etc These are amazing companies not only for PSus but their cooling stuff eg Thermaltake I got a Antec Dual Fan Silent 550W PSu and its amazing for about i think £50-60
Everything looks good to me except the Athlon, I find they run to hot for my liking, I will stick with Intel...........lol
They dont get hot if u got the right cooling im running the AMD64 3500 and it hasnt gone above 33 degrees approx with 3 fans in place + 1 CPU fan
wow. currently they are the best processors and intel is lagging behind. maybe in the K6 series they were poor but since the thunderbird range they have been on top.
