Ok Im about to buy a P4 1.7 G 128MB and a Gefore3 at dell or at alienware. Or I was thinking the exact same thing but with a AMD 1.33. Now Im only 17 so I know the smartest thing is to go out and put the components together but my paychecks are about 275 every 2 weeks so that takes awhile. So with all the big retailers I can pay monthly sums so that is why I am doing it.
Im so confused on the cpu to choose I have read so many diffrent things saying which is better. I am going to use this system for pretty much every game that is anything that comes out and for graphic programs like photoshop and bryce and alot of other things. But is the performance so diffrent like who cares id amd opens word .2 seconds faster or what is 20 frame when you are already at 130fps. Can someone make a snap judgment for me Im really bothered now. Oh also what cpu is better set for the future. Thank you
