Ok, my Dell won't play nice with a GT7600, this is the 3rd one I have gone through. So I was planning on building another box myself (first time in a while). I will now accelerate this purchase and build now because I can't play any games on this email machine right now.
So far I have
- Ultra V Series 500w power supply
- Ultra Aluminous Mid Tower case
- Couple of fans to install in the case
- Soundblaster soundcard
I need:
- Processor - debating between the core 2 e6400 or e6600 (is it worth the $100)?
- Mother board - I haven't kept up to date on these in the last few years. I'm not going to overclock this thing at this time. Perhaps when its about to be a boat anchor I will. I understand the need for a good motherboard but overclocking is not my goal.
- Memory - I will buy a minimum of 2g to start but I'm unsure of what speed will provide the best performance.
Any recommendations? All help is appreciated.
Thanks in advance for your help!
