Making a new comp because i need a better comp

My build so far... (these are what im GOING to get, unless noted that i already have...)

(have)ASUS A8N-SLi Prem. Mobo

AMD Athlon 64 X2 4800+ Dual Core

XFX GeForce 7900GTX 512mb graphics Card (or get the 7950 card?)

2x 1GB RAM sticks - Kingston RAM w/ Heat Spreader

(have)120GB Seagate 7200RMS HD

Windows Xp Pro OS

any suggesions?

Yeah, seeing as how the Core 2 Duo kicks the crap out of the AMD for less money, I would buy the Intel. The only problem is that you would have to buy a new mobo of course.

Seen it coming a mile away" core 2 duo"

My god, if he wants to build a AMD system why don't you support him in it rather then bugging him about it.

Because it makes no sense to make a amd build when you can make an intel build for $100 cheaper for the same performance.

LOL, fanboy.

Who in their right mind would buy a lesser cpu for the same price as a cpu that would spank the lesser one.

And who would be arrogrant enough to support a decision like that.

He came to the forums to get help. Not get a response from a fanboy or some one that obviously doesn't know what they are talking about?

Just my view on this.

If you notice at the bottom he is asking for suggestions. unless monkeys are flying out of my ass i think that was a suggestion.

Isn't kingston ourageously expensive?? I would get OCZ or corsair instead

m0nkeh` · 08-28-2006, 07:16 AM

Well, I like AMD, might cost more, but like it, and already have the MOBO...

but I was thinking of getting Corsair, think the XMS series? (if i said the right letters)

and would I need another HD or a bigger one to hold : alotta games, Movies, 2k+ songs atleast, photoshop/flash etc, misc files...

thx in advance.
