daniel Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 i thought he wanted a pci express system.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 pci-e is pointless for that budget. Anyways I'd get the msi 9800 pro bc it has the 9800xt core. Same price also, its 256bit. Besides that, system looks pretty good. I'd say the 1gb might be overkill just for gaming, but that is too good of an offer to refuse.

daniel Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 if he add;s like 30 bucks he will get a pci express system... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Byron Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 Yes, but his system wont benefit from a pci-e card. Within his budget, a pci-e card would not outperfom the same card running agp. So whats the point? He would have to change his whole setup to basically get an intel system instead of a64. IMO, not worth the extra money for pci-e Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
confuzzedintelguy Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 (edited) You could always git a 9800se 256bit and take a chance and soft mod it to a pro. http://www.newegg.com/app/ViewProductDesc....-131-248&depa=1 Edited October 10, 2004 by confuzzedintelguy Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr_Yuck Posted October 10, 2004 Posted October 10, 2004 2500+ mobile - 90$DFI infinity - 90$ 1gb of corsair value select - $160 MSI radeon 9800pro - $200 Thats a decent gaming system when u oc it and its only $540 case+cooling Also I am pretty sure he wont wanna OC. Thanks for the suggestions everyone, I was thinking PCI-E for later...plannin ahead...but I dunno...maybe just an A64, A gig of ram, a 9800pro 256bit, and a raidmax case? or a PCI-E card, dual channel ram, raidmax case and Prescott Processor. Or a Barton, 9800pro and a gig of ram decisions decisions Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
