I have always built my own PC's and have had no problems but I have not been keeping up with new technology because I didn't need a new PC.
Now I would likw to build a new 64 bit system, I have always used Asus montherboards and would like to stay that way. I have never used RAID because I had no need to but now on this new system I'd like to connect 4 hard drives, is RAID the only option for this or are there others.
Another thing that has me a bit confused is the dual core cpu's, I have always used Intel and currently have a P4 2.4 GB
Looking at some of the new dual core cpu's it doesn't look like they have gone up in GB's , is a dual core cpu say like a 2.4 GB the same as having the power of 2 2.4 cpu's?
besides answering the questions I have asked I would appreciate if anyone would give me some suggestions on what they think my best choices would be staying with Asus and Intel.
I don't want to build a mega gammer power rig I just want a nice quick system for home use and would like to keep my cost as low as possible but still having quality products.
I'll appreciate any and all input
Thanks
