Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

So it looks like your trying to build a budget rig. Definately get a case w/o a psu and by the psu seperately, also since you already have the cpu i'll make some reccomendations around that tommorow, if you didn't already have it i would have reccomended a single core opteron with serious o/cing potential, but i will reccomend some parts that go with your cpu tommorow.

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

Didnt you create the same thread two days ago, but whatever here is what I chose for u.

mobo=100$ (can be upgraded to conroe)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16813130052

ram=178$ (faster ddr2 800 ram)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145590

psu=70$(600w psu for great price)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817190007

graphics card=117$(extremly cheap and more powerful than 7600gt)u r unlucky the 90$ version is gone but here is another one

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16814102483

Case=90$ (or what ever you like not really expert with cases though)

http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811133132

Total=555$ (selling some old parts of your rig will help and good luck )

The psu is the one thing you do not want to cheap out on, people never think of how important it is.

This PSU is reccomended by some pc experts, and it is the lowest priced one i could find on their reccomendation list. NOTE: When looking at PSU's, don't only look at the watts it has, because they lie and it might not be that good at all.
78.99:http://www.monarchcomputer.com/Merch...AFFIL=FRG&NR=1

For video card, i would pick between these two, personally i would go for the cheaper one:
119: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814102688
144.99:http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130283

For memory, you might want to try to look into this on your own, but here are a few:
178: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820145590
151: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16820227047

For motherboard, people seem to like this one:
104.99: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16813186023

For a case, that is really your choice, but here are some inexpensive reccomendations:
89.99: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811133132
79.99: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811133145
68.99: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811133172
59.99: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119074
44.99: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16811119094

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

very, very nice case, with an included high quality 450W psu (arguably better than alot of cheaper 600W's) for $89...if you hurry.

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

ok i like all the stuff u guys have chossen its just i want the possibility to run crossfire or sli depending on which gfx card i choose but all those motherboards only have 1 pci-e slot.

[imported_HIV]

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

Would u like to upgrade to conroe later on because the board I chose is the only one that supports both pentium 4 and conroe ready

[solofowaffles]

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

yeah i would lie to upgrade to conroe but probaly not until prices drop ,as u can see im aon a bit of budget.

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

would u like to use ur old ram that way u can sli with the budjet u have

[solofowaffles]

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

no im getting new ram,im just saying i want sli cpable stuff but im not gonna go sli for a while till i get more money.

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

no im getting new ram,im just saying i want sli cpable stuff but im not gonna go sli for a while till i get more money.

Well if you want sli then you would have to go for an nvidia gfx card, but imo you might want to get a more expensive card right now and not go down the SLI route, you can get a pretty good 7900gt which o/c pretty well for under 250 dollars, and only use one gfx card.

1-Going with the cheapest MB and case price=470(u can buy another video card so add 470+117=587$, so on the budjet

2-Going with the expensive MB and case price=588$ no crossfire

So what do u think?

[solofowaffles]

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

ok thx,and im wondering should i go with that ati card and run crossfire with it because its cheper,and i can run crossfire with the cheper mobo?

[imported_HIV]

Re: new comp,parts ive choosen

This Ati is better than 7600gt since it has 16 piplines while the 7600gt has 12
And the cheaper board has 2 pci x16 with the 600W PSU it should be fine for extra information u can read the reviews about the mobo + the ram is compatable no need to check i already done that and good luck . By the way if u came 1 day before the card was around 90$ 3 days sale.
