 |
I think its time to upgrade my pc again:
Currently having:
amd xp2500 @ 1866mhz
2x 512mb corsaid dual chan
abit nforce 2.0 mainboard
ati radeon 9800 pro 128mb
--
things as harddisk and dvd-burner i don't need, because i take them with me.
-
Can anyone recommend me a good system and not to expensive. Around 650 euro (or 870 dollar or 440 pound is good)
I would like to play the latest games at a decent quality. I'm also doing some video-editing, so processing speed must be good ;p
i need new:
CPU
memory
mainboard
videocard
Thanks guys & girls

I'd recommend getting a Core2Duo E6600, a lot of bang for the buck.
As for motherboard I have no idea what would fit that budget but perhaps something with core2duo support and the P965 chipset?
2gb DDR2 ram for sure...
GFX? Maybe you should go for a 8800GTS 320mb (640mb if you would have the money).
Behold his GLORY! Bow for the technical master!

C2D E6300
1GB-2GB 667MHz/800MHz (depending on price)
650i motherboard
8600GT (coming late April)
This should be a great value system. If you have more money, invest in a better CPU and a GPU.

LMAO!!! You do realize that the physx card is only going to bog down your system as well as the 8800 series from nvidia have their own physx built into it? If you get both cards your gunna run into some issues.

Out of those, get the 8600GTS... Pfft, it's a no brainer, obviously.
