Small pc
Ok, i am doing a build for a friend, who wants a good preforming PC, that is small as can be!
He want's it to be great preformance everywhere but the graphics card, which still has to have PCI-E for a future upgrade to an awesome graphics card! Basically, he wants a very small case housing, what i recommended, which is a 3000+ w/good FHS for OC'ing, 1gb value ram, a dvd burner, larger hdd, and possibly an ATI remote wonder thingy. Budget is good to me since i'm used to working around the same budget. it is $850 integrated, or a low-tec graphics solution should save money here. basically, he wants a shuttle PC only cheaper. OMG i just checked out cyberpowersystem to see what case that was, and i customized a pc, and its actually pretty cheap!!!!!!! specs: 3000+ 1gb corsair 300gb hdd (16mb) nec 3500 series dvd burner lights geforce 6600 256mb (ok card i guess but card isn't important) speakers (2.1) keyboard (logitec) mouse (microsoft optical) $669!

2. NEC3500, while not as troublesome as the 2500s, wasnt perfected until the 3520 (which uses a different core chipset than the 3500 and as such cant be firmware hacked) Quote:

 It doesnt affect the performance of the box and considering theres 160 bucks left till the budget there's tons of room to get the case and all that extra crap

Would the preformance between the 3500 and 3200 be to noticable for like games or any of the such?
