Almost bough a new computer at christmas but looking at the prices i think i could pretty much build one myself for cheaper, but containing everything i want. Most computers i have seen around £500 have average everything, but iw want a good graphics card, processor and memory mainly.
I know i can easily add new dvd drives or memory so this isn't a problem. What i have heard is that the processor is not really worth changing because often the motherboard and pc setup is based around it, and if changed, things could go wrong. I have a gigabyte GA-7VAXP motherboard and an amd athlon 2400xp cpu.
Does anybody know any processors that would work well with this motherboard because i quite like the motherbord don't really want to change.
I'm thinking under £100 for the cpu and would like one for gaming.
Thanks a lot guys.
