I have a job interview on friday and if I get it I want to build a new computer once i've saved up enough money. I'm looking to spend about £1k, maybe more cause I want a 19" moniter aswell. It'll mostly be used for gaming and the odd bit of paper work/web browsing.
The thing is, what cpu would be best? I know the 3700+ SD is considered and old chip now but it's still good. How would a 3800+ X2 match up against it, or even one of the opteron's?
What other components would you fine people suggest? I like the look of the Epox motherboards but they're always out of stock. The graphic card will either be something like a 7800GT/X or X1800/X1900. Maybe 2GB Geil value? What would work best within the budget?
