Is this build PERFECT?

[Tyr]

I challenge you to make an improvement on this build without spending more money....

DFI nF4X Infinity - $76.00
AMD Sempron 64 2800+ Palermo - $75.50
CORSAIR Valueselect 1GB(2x512MB) 184-Pin DDR SDRAM DDR 400 - $81.00
SAPPHIRE ATLANTIS RADEON 9600XT 256MB - $93.50
FSP Group (Fortron Source) 450W - $49.99

Total - $375.99

I've already selected a case, optical drive, hard drive, monitor, speakers, keyboard, and mouse.

wow.. that's good. I prefer Nvidia tho

Ya.. I'd nab a newer nForce board... maybe a mATX if you're ok w/ it. But it's a good budget anyways.

By saying "without spending more money....", you don't offer anyone to make improvements, but you could make the system worse. You basically contradicted yourself.

Dont get a sempron 64....

Dont get a sempron 64....

Why? And what do you suggest?

 

[Brtnboarder495]

The Athlon 64 3000+ or 3200+ can be found around $160, and deal out so much more power then the Semrpon 64 line.

No. People could say things like "don't get that brand" or "get a less expensive part X so you can spend more on part Y" stuff like that.

 

[Kitire]

Yeah.. Don't get the Sempron.

A product of the same technical specs obviously wouldn't be the same price as a product with the same technical specs of another brand. If it is, it's a rare case and probably not of the same quality.
