If I game occasionally and am sufficing now with a Geforce4 MX 420 will I be ok with a geforce4 6800gs instead of the 7800 gt. Planning on using it for dual monitors.
I'm trying to cut costs in my proposed system. I need to drop a few hundred dollars. My main activity is heavy multitasking. Can you guys help me out? What items are not necessary?
Current Proposed System:
AMD Athlon 64 x2 4200+ ($400)
ASUS A8N-SLI Premium ($166) (how necessary is this mb, am I overdoing it?)
Geforce4 7800 GT ($300)
1GB corsair xms ram ($100)
Antec Truepower 2.0 550W ($90) How necessary is this big guy.
1 SATA 80 gig hd
1 IDE 160 hd
16x DVD-ROM
52x CDRW
External usb sony dvd-rw
Ipod firewire
Thanks so much ....
