My last computer that i built was about 5 years ago, and I've only recently had the need to build another one. (Games were getting too advanced for my setup)
I've got a few questions about some of the new stuff out there, and I've got a rudimentary idea of what i want in a new system.
First, i'd like to use this processor:
Newegg.com - AMD Athlon 64 X2 6000+ Windsor 3.0GHz 2 x 1MB L2 Cache Socket AM2 125W Dual-Core Processor - CPUs / Processors
a GeForce 8800 GT 512mb (not sure on brand, since they've changed)
2x 1 GB DDR2 RAM
Running on WinXP. I dont have a clue which mobo would work on this setup, so any advice you guys have got would be awesome!
As you can tell, i've got quite a budget, ($500-600$), but i already have a case, hard drive, cdrom, and floppy (anybody even use those anymore).
Think i might need a PSU greater than 500W?
thanks for your input!!!!
