i m building 1k rig for my friend and i need you guys to help me out here,
its been very long since i read tomshardware articles.
so here we go,
my friend has 1k to spend for his new computer ( he already has monitor)
i was thinking of building him a core 2 duo system, but I found it pretty hard not to go over his budget. (1K is in canadian dollars).
he is planning or should i say wishes to use this computer for at least 3 years.
so, here are the parts i chose out so far..
Core 2 duo e4300 1.8GHz
BIostar Tforce 965PT
FSP Forton 450W
Ati x1600
i dont know how much and what type of memory i should give him. i am planning to overclock his cpu to around 3.0GHz. can anyone suggest me a descent ram that is under his budget.
I still have lot of other components such as harddirve, computer case, dvd drive and etc.
can anyone recommend me any of this components?
and hows the rig looking so far?
feel free to say what u want , i really do need your inputs.
thanks,
