I Need Some Advice


Recommended Posts

K, this is my AMD 64 Winchester setup:

 

AMD 64

 

Aspire 96.99

MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum. 139。99

AMD 64 3200 @ 2.0GHz 190.99 or AMD 64 3500 @ 2.2GHz 267.00

Lite-On CD-ROM/DVD/CD-R+RW 36.99

Sony Floppy Drive 8.99

ATI Radeon X800XL 299.89

Audigy 2 ZS 86.99

Maxtor 200 SATA 113

Patriot 225

Enermax 600W 159.00

LCD Monitor (Hopefully less than 200)

 

I just plan to surf the net, listen to music, play games and much more. I hate lag. hehe. I love multitasking. I am not really a hardcore gamer. I game once in a while. The games I only play are C&C, all versions, warcraft III, WOW, Starcraft BW, Diablo 2 Exp and Lord of the Rings. If you think I should change something, by all means recommmend it. I don't have a spending limit, but I don't really need the Best of the BEST.

Do you really need the Audigy 2? -- most of the onboard sound on higher end motherboards is pretty good nowadays...

 

EDIT: and I would take the 3200+ and overclock it... save the extra money ... you probably wont see that much performance boost out of the extra 200mhz

I agree, go with the 3500+ but make sure it's the 90nm. they also have a 130nm. the 90nm is the adabibox one. or something like that.

bleah, forget the winnie, go 3000+ Venice, but if you love multi-tasking and quickness I would suggest a hyper-threaded Intel, just get proper cooling.

^ Agreed - as much as I love current amd procs and their gaming superiority, they cant touch the snappy multitasking of a HT p4 :D
