Hi,
I am toying with the idea of building myself a new desktop in the near future. I bought in April 04 a Dell XPS with the following specs:
P4 3.4 GHZ
2 GB DDR Ram
ATI Radeon 9800 XT 256
80 GB 7200 HD
just added 160 GB 7200 HD
Basically on todays standards how good of a computer is that? Way behind, close to todays norm or what? Just wondering.
I am thinking of building a new desktop with AMD 64 X2 processor. Is that like todays top? What kinda a processor would I want to use if I want it to last a good while? Also what is this about needing dual video cards? Dont fully understand.
Let me know.
Matt
