I'm going to be building my new computer in the near future, and i want to know if there is anything that could be improved upon. I am going to overclock, which explains the CPU.
GMC H-60 ATX Case
Abit NF7-S rev2.0
AMD Athlon XP2400+mobile (35W)/Athlon XP2500+ Barton
2x256Mb DDR400 Corsair XMS
ATi Radeon 9800Pro 128Mb
WD 80Gb SATA 7200Rpm
52x32x52 LiteOn CR/RW
1.44Mb Floppy Drive
Later additions will include: (in order of priority)
Thermaltake Silent Tower HSF + Artic Silver 5 thermal compound
MS wireless Keyboard/Mouse (Elite)
WD 80Gb SATA 7200Rpm
Maxpower 400W PSU
Nvidia 6800GT 256Mb
2x120mm SilentX Case fans (the 120mm version will be available in october)
Klipsch Promedia Ultra 5.1 Speakers Just look at the specs!!
1. Which CPU? XP2500+ (Barton) or the XP2400+Mobile.
2. Should i get faster RAM or will the DDR400 be ok for serious overclocking.
3. Anything anyone could suggest to make this system better, for the roughly the same price would be a great help
PS: i think i posted a shorter version of this a while ago, but i dont know what people thought of it.
