ohldboy Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 If you want Intel 775 anything earlier than an E5200 is too dated to buy now. The G31 board is DDR2 and ICH7. Limiting. At least here we are seeing discounts of older stock So an Athalon II X2 250 might be very good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_bowtie Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 And what about this? MoBo: ASUS M4A88T-I Deluxe CPU: AMD Athlon II X2 250 (maybe downclocked for better consumption as it would go 7/24) RAM: KINGSTON 2Gb Notebook DDR3 (SO-DIMM) 1333Mhz *2 HDD: WD 2000GB Caviar Green 5400rpm 64MB SATA2 WD20EARS HDD: for OS:wd_250gb_scorpio_blue mini ITX capable case This would cost around: 350$ Looks good to me....

gotdamojo06 Posted May 10, 2011 Posted May 10, 2011 Here is a DiskMark shot of the WD Caviar Green 1TB EARS drive that has a 64MB cache...not too bad for around 65 US$... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rush77 Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 Well actually this is just a plan so I can modify it whenever I want. If you suggest me that the green is ok but the blue is not that good than I'll look around for other choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
dr_bowtie Posted May 11, 2011 Posted May 11, 2011 the Blue drives are fine....just make sure they are 7200rpm if you want speed... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
