Hi there,
So its like this see,
I am looking to upgrade my P4 3.0 PC, to a Core 2 Duo.
This is my current setup:
OS:
XP Pro (No Vista for me! Not yet at least - maybe when it actually works properly......?)
CPU:
Pentium 4 3.0Ghz
Motherboard:
Gigabyte GA-8I915P Pro
Memory:
1 GB DDR
GPU:
Gigabyte GeForce 7600 GT
Case:
Thermaltake "Armor" with 430 Watt PSU
HardDrives:
2 X 100mb SATA II dirives.
I am looking at upgrading the Mobo, CPU, and memory. Below are my current selections.
CPU:
Intel Core 2 Duo E6400 CPU 2X1Mb; Dual Core EMT64T 2.13G 1066Mhz FSB; Allendale; LGA775
MOBO:
Gigabyte GA-965P-DQ6
GIGABYTE - Product - Motherboard - Overview
OR
Asus P5B Deluxe
ASUSTeK Computer Inc.
Currently I am leaning towards the ASUS Mobo.
As for memory, I am yet to make any selections until I finally select a mobo. Any suggestions for memory would be appreciated.
What I am looking at doing is building a good to high performance machine that can be upgraded to a quad processor in the future when i need it.
**So my current plan is to replace the existing Motherboard, CPU, and memory with new components.
**Leave the rest as is for now.
**Use the replaced components as the basis for a new additional PC. I intend to get a new case and use the P4 as a game server.
So, what I would like to know is, does anyone have any thoughts on my selections? Any advice or suggestions?
