What do you think of this config ?

[FelipeAMD]

Hi !

AS I said in another post, i'm tired of my atual pc, (signature),it's a good one, i'm planning to stay with it for at lease 1 year...So i'm starting to plan the config of my A64 system...

Take a look:

Amd Athlon 64 3500+ 939 0.13nm
Chaintech VNF4/Ultra (Socket 939, PCI-X16, Nforce 4 Ultra)
MSI GeForce 6800, 256mb, PCI-X
KINGWIN Arctic Liquid Cooler System For Intel P4/AMD K7 & K8, Model "AWC-1"

And the rest, 1GB of RAM in Dual Channel Markvision, HD sata 80gb...etc....

What do you think of this config ? Can I do sometihg better with the same money ?

THANKS !

-Amd Athlon XP-M @ 2.6ghz
-Abit NF7 V2.0
-1GB DDR400 MARKVISION
-Radeon 9800XT

"i'm planning to stay with it for at lease 1 year...So i'm starting to plan the config of my A64 system..."

Wow...planning a computer for next year with today's parts...

Next year, there will be better parts and better price. So wait until you'll be ready then post again.

Yes....

I like to plan things a long time before doing it...

So, just for asking...the prices certainly will be lower next year, but how much %%%, not exactly,...just a estimative...

Well A64s don't run all that hot so you might want to consider ditching the liquid cooling system.

If you are going to overclock see if you can get your hands on a .9nm 3200+, it will clock better than the 0.13 3500+.

Thanks...

But as I said I won't buy it now...

I'm just starting to plan for the future...

Well then, dont plan on such a crappy graphics card. The X850PE will be in the same boat your XT is in today. The gt will be a low to mid end card by then. Bothe Ati and nvidia have new offerings in the pipe.

 

[jammydodger]

Ok but for future reference try and buy a .9nm CPU (although by the time you get it most of the new CPU's will be .9nm).

I'd get a PCIe (PCI-Express) card, because the board doesn't have any PCI-X slots, and there aren't any PCI-X versions of that video card.
