I have read about Prescott's problems. Is Intel still releasing faster CPUs end of this month accompanied by price drops on current ones?
Here is the configuration I am looking to build.
P4 2.4 GHz 800 FSB
Asus P4P800 Deluxe Motherboard
Antec Sonata Case
2 x Corsair CMX512-3500C2 512MB DDR433 PC3500
Maxtor DiamondMax Plus 9 6Y120M0 120GB Serial ATA 7200RPM
Sapphire ATI RADEON 9700 ATLANTIS PRO ULTIMATE 128MB DDR 8X
Creative Sound Blaster Audigy 2
Sony DW-U10A-10 DVD Writer
Liteon LTR-52246S 52x24x52 E-IDE CD-RW Drive w/Nero Software
19" LCD Flat Panel
Windows XP Professional
Floppy Drive
I am hoping this PC won't become obselete in January 2004. Are any new sockets coming out soon? Would I be able to upgrade this PC with a new motherboard if new sockets are on the way, while keeping the rest of the components? Are any of the components already bettered by others? Please help me. Thanks.
