Hi,
I'm new to this forum, so don't rip me apart just yet. I'm planning to upgrade my CPU, MoBo and RAM. My ideas at the moment are:
<font color=red> Athlon XP 3200+ <b>£150</b>
Asus A7n8x-E Deluxe <b>£82</b>
Crucial pc3200 (2x 512) <b>£110</b> </font color=red>
Or I'm considering an A64 3000, but I don't really want to pay more than I've budgeted for, and haven't done my homework on 64bit technology. :redface:
Any helpful pointers you lot want to offer on either keeping the Athlon idea or moving on to a 64, and if so can you tell me which (good) MoBo's and RAM I could get for an A64 within a low(ish) price-range?
My PC's used mainly for gaming and multi-media, no video compression or anythin as exciting as that.
Oh yeah, would an A64 make full use of pc3200 RAM, seeing as the stated FSB is only 200mhz???
cheers
