I am a die hard AMD fan, combined with the new nForce2 mobos & you have a solid base for a gaming rig at an incredible discount to Intel based systems.
it really depends on how experienced you are with putting together a system & how large of a bank roil. You plan on overclocking? If I was going to build a new gaming box today with limited funds, I would pick up the Epox 8rda+ ($83) AMD Athlon XP 2100+ (65) if overclocking you need good cooling, HS & fan ($40-50) 512MB Twinmos/Winbond (CH-5 chip) PC3200 RAM ($91) Video card, I prefer Nvidia, anything above Ti4200 should fly,Albatron Geforce FX 5200 AGP 8X ($70) What else do you need? If you plan on buying on-line, make sure you get it from http://www.newegg.com -------------------- Win XP Pro Epox 8RDA+ OC'ed @ 2.3GHZ 512 DDR 3200, ATI 9800 PRO 128 |
