Ok so I had a bunch of spare parts lying around so I decided to do a decent but cheap secondary build
Here's the stats:
Biostar Geforce 6100 mATX mobo
Athlon64 3000 1.8 GHz socket 939
XFX 6600GT 256MB
160GB IDE WD HDD, CD-RW. etc.
Cheap, but kinda cool looking Ultra mATX case
And to finish it off in the back of my closet I found an old Allied 350 watt psu, but it only has a 20-pin motherboard connector, but the motherboard has a 24-pin connector. I tried it and it does fit in, but I'm afraid to turn it on and I was wondering if it would work. So has anyone tried it? Also, I'm going to overclock this thing as far as it will go, will this limit me? I'm thinking that it might, but it's a fairly low power system so it might do OK. I really don't want to drop any cash on it since I've got a good system that I'm happy with. Any advice is appreciated.
