Hello, im kinda new to overclockers, and decided to try it out,
I am basicly gonna build my rig from scratch except i got the following already:
DVD dual layer.. blah blah, theyre all the same
Audigy 2 zs, xhifi will come 1 day. not enough money currantly to upgrade
XFX geforce 7900 gt.
maxtor, crappy advent hardrive, some hardware store said its corrupted, i think they kinda tried to fix it. but would it cause any danger to run it in the new rig? i tested on my m8s pc and it was fine for over 2 weeks
crappy advent unbranded ram 512 3200, probably gonna put it in, since its lying around, with the high quality ram im getting, any dangers to this etc?
Now this is the rig so far and im pretty happy about it:
Dfi Lanparty UT NF4 Ultra-D maybe sli-D but i dont really plan on getting another card, tight budget
Thermaltake VB100 BWS Soprano super midi tower-black, i love windows basicly
Seasonic s12 600 *** silent ATX 2.0, some wise man said to me once, never cheap out on psu's, so yea i want a psu i can trust 100%
Maxtor 250 16mb cache 7200 rpm
windows xp, ofcourse, lame microsoft, hate them so much for making me pay so much for a disk full of crap. thats basicly it.
So now i need your advice, what ram to get? I was thinking mushkin 1gb ddr 3200 2x512. seems really nice that 1, low latency and the likes, but once again, some people here are experts and know the pro's and con's etc. etc.
probably the toughest decision is the processor, I want to get a good 1, I dont espescialy wanna overclock anything just yet, but if needed then yea i guess. some people say opteron, to me the numbers seem a bit low on that, but yea i dunno, my last cpu was athlon 3400, it was ok i guess, i was hoping for something that runs faster, like the 4000, the cache owns on that and its 2400 not 2200 fsb. but after all my budget is only 600 maximum, i was hoping for 550 really.
please someone advise me,
Thanks, Roger
