Im going to build a new computer (it will be my first)
I have researched for hours finding the best prices (im on a budget but want a powerful computer)
Here is what i have found:
*CPU: AMD Athlon 64 3200+ Venice 90nm (Socket 939)
*Disk drive: Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 10 NCQ 160GB 6V160E0 *SATA-II 8MB
*Motherboard: Asus A8N-SLi SE nForce4 SLi (Socket 939) PCI-Express
*Graphics card: Leadtek GeForce 7800GT 256MB GDDR3 VIVO
*Memory: Corsair 1GB DDR Value Select PC3200 CAS2.5 Kit (2x512MB)
*CD/DVD: Sony CRX320E 52x32x52x16 CDRW/DVD Combi Drive
*Monitor: Acer AL1916W 19" Widescreen LCD Monitor
*Case: XG gaming case Blitz Ninja Blue with PSU
*Keyboard and mouse: Logitech Ultra-X Keyboard and mouse
*Floppy disk: not found yet
*OS: Windows XP Professional x64 Edition (Not added to price yet)
This all came around £820 Inc P&P and VAT
This might be a shock to how cheap this will be but i still want to lower the price.
Im not sure on the motherboard and graphics card; they are both SLI ready, but is it worth it because im not rich enough to buy another graphics card! Whats the real difference between having a normal motherboard and that graphics card or a sli motherboard and 2 of thoose graphics cards. You got to remeber that im on a budget.
And please also give your thoughts on the other hardware.
Thank you
