I'm looking to build (for the first time) a new pc for
myself and I've put together this list of parts that I thought would be good.
-AMD Athlon XP 2600+ "Barton", 333MHz FSB, 512K Cache
-ASUS "A7N8X-E Deluxe" nForce2 Ultra 400 Chipset
-Crucial 184 Pin 512MB DDR PC-3200
-Maxtor 120GB 7200RPM IDE Hard Drive, Model 6Y120P0
-ATI RADEON 9600XT, 128MB DDR, 128-bit, 8X AGP
-Creative Sound Blaster Audigy2 ZS Platinum Pro
I'd be greatful to hear any input that anyone has on this
combination of parts. Is everything compatible? Should I
really get more (or less) of something? Are there any
bottlenecks? Would you suggest something different?
Also, I have yet to choose a CD/DVD drive. I'm thinking I'd
like to get a DVD burner. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for your comments.
