Hi everyone,
well, it's time for me to change my old rig. Here's what i'm going to buy (by the way, it will be the first time i actually choose and build myself a computer)
■Processor: Core 2 Duo E8400
■Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-EP35-DS3R
■RAM: 2x1GB Crucial Ballistix PC2-6400 (or maybe i'll get 2x 2x1GB since i can have it for 20$ each kit)
■Video card: I'm still not sure about this one. I don't need something powerfull, so i tough about a Radeon 2600XT or a 8600GT but i can have a quite good price on a 8800GT so i don't know...
■Case: Antec Sonata III (except for the fixed motherboard tray, it looks good)
■PSU: Antec Earthwatts 500 (comes with the case)
■HD: Seagate Barracuda 7200.11 500GB (i might get another one later for a RAID 1 setup)
■Optical drive: Well, who cares.
So, anyone has something to say about this ? I might order everything today.
Also, I don't plan on overclocking right away, but i sure will do it after a couple of months (or maybe sooner, heh). And it's not intented to be a gaming rig neither, i play games but not that much.
