Hi, geeks!
With me, I never have any money. It takes me a while to buy anything over £50. Anyway, my Mum gave my her old desktop computer because she brought a new laptop. It's fully working and everything.
Specs of the AMD machine is:
Gigabyte GA-MA78GM-S2H AM2+
AMD Phenom 9550 Quad-Core Processor (Agena)
1GB of DDR2 memory
80GB HDD seagate
The PC that I'm using now is:
Intel q8300
4GB of DDR3
BIOSTAR G41D3
XFX HD6850
650W PSU
500GB WD HDD
Now, I checked up the motherboard specs and I think the AMD would be the best choice. Better PCIe(2.0), can handle more memory than the BIOSTAR, more Sata ports, eSATA port, RAID support and AMD CPUs are cheaper and the AMD CPUs have integrated memory controllers, right? And more. If I do pick AMD, then I was going put my HD6850, PSU and HDD in the AMD machine. Also, I will be buying more DDR2 memory since it's dirty cheap.
So what do you people think?
