Will this PC work??

grazhopper · 01-09-2006, 12:37 AM

I'm about 100 USD from getting the computer in my signature. I checked everythings compatability with my friend, but I figured that can't do any harm asking you guys if it is all compatable and will run. Also, does anyone have any suggestions of any component that I should reconsider or replace with another??(especially my motherboard) Thanks a lot y'all.

Yup, I'm pretty sure it's all compatible (from memory).

How is it you have 516 MB of RAM? Oh, and I'd recommend you get 1 GB of RAM, becuase it looks like you've built that system for gaming / audio recording, which both require a decent amount of RAM. Heck, if you can afford it, get 2 GB!

The video card is excellent, nice choice!

I'd say a good overall choice, but wait for someone else's opinion first!

Yeah sorry bout that, I just fixed it though. But thanks a lot for confirming. I'm so psyched for tyhe computer to come. Does anyone have any suggestions for a motherboard? Or do you think the one I have is fine?

Well, the motherboard you want is a good one. I don't know much about motherboards to be honest... But the one you have chosen is meant to be a good one!

I do not recommend the ASUS A8N-SLI Deluxe. For that price range, rather get the DFI Lanparty UT or the SLI version.

I would recommend this RAM also over your current one.

It is $30 cheaper and it is part of the OCZ EL series.
