I MAY be getting a new computer, I know that a thread like this will probably grow to five pages; but, I am debating as to whether I should get Intel or Amd. And for the video card, nvidia or ATI..I am leaning towards the NVIDIA 5900 256mb. card. Vs. the 9800pro 256mb...due to previous experiences w/ ATI.
One thing I am noticing is that you pay more for intel over AMD. All I want is perfomance & dependability, not sure if the extra cost is worth it. -------------------- |

I heard someone saying that the new FX series cards were very loud....Can't say that for a fact though. I just got my new system put together tonight....Can't wait to try it out. Considering I'm going from a 750 Duron with a GeForce2 Vid card, this will be damn near orgasmic! I went with the ASUS A7N8X Deluxe MOBO, AthlonXP 2500+ 333FSB/Barton Core...And a ATI Radeon 9500 PRO 128meg Video card. Should definately make gaming a whole new experience. Oh ya JP? I know you'll add your 2 cents worth here, so I'll leave ya with this message....Bring it on Beeyatch!  |
