Recently IÂ’ve decided to finally build a decent computer, instead of relying on ones Dad gets from work, as I donÂ’t even have admin privileges on it (and neither does he), and the specs IÂ’ve gone for go like this:
AMD64 3800 Dual Core 939
256M MSI 7800GTX VIVO PCI-E
Asus (AMD64-939) A8N-SLI Premium Motherboard
Geil Ultra-X 2-2-2-5 UTT 2x512mb RAM
2 x 300GB 8MB SATA Seagate
Silver Soprano Case
Pioneer 110d oem
DVD-Rom 16x
Floppy
Wireless mouse + keyb
Tplink wireless router
PCI wireless adapter
Leadtek TV 200Xp expert
Microsoft XP Media Centre
Now the thing is, that IÂ’m not sure wether to get 2GBs of RAM or another 7800GTX card.. the difference in price is about $AU445, but the main thing is the speed, should I get the extra video card or the extra RAM?
Or neither or both or one later and one now, any thoughts?
Also, the comp is going to be on my desk, which wonÂ’t allow a lot of air-space around it, and is quite hot, do I look into liquid cooling as well?
Thanks in advance.
