Yes but its way better than Compaq's ridiculous Presario 735 !

amd chips are generally used for lower and medium level desktops from the big pc companies as well... most of the ads I see for pc's have p4 systems as the 'high end' option (although high end is relative, since they often equip those pcs with terrible video cards)

<i>My life wasn't complete untill I tried sse-2 optimized pong</i>

Know that well, my friend was wondering why his games werent running smooth on high detail on his new viao.. to find the answer I looked, and lo and behold, a 32mb video card... ati rage something or another... and sdram too.. shame to choke the hell out of the P4 like that..

Once I thought, then I <A HREF="http://www.warroom.com" target="_new">learned</A>

Choke? Lol first look at the RAM! It's SDRAM, how's that for choking!

I set my graphics aperture to 1024MB, why can't I open anything now?

the main reason i compared them, even though different processors, mobo, ram, vid card, etc, is becasue i am not going to buy a geforce2 pro for him, and i am not going to buy myself a viao...if i could do that, then i would not have an athlon 900 and a geforce2 pro would i?
i was trying to point out that they do put crap video cards in there...and overcharge for it.

it really is sad...
and people believe it too..that is the saddest part..because they dont know!
they see the big hard drive, and the p4, and they assume it is a good computer.
oh, and now if the manufacturer throws in a cdburner and a dvd drive...MAN...that must be one helluva system!

not what i was getting at...i was showing that they are ripping people off, and choking the p4s...
OBVIOSLY in a system of the same specs, a gf2 would beat a tnt2m64 (debateable about a tnt2ultra and a gf2mx...lol).
but my processor is like half the speed of his, it is just strange that they put those video cards in there.
even a geforce2 mx, which is CHEAP would outperform the tnt2m64!!!!!!!
i wasnt trying to compare my video card to his...i should have said that i was trying to point out the fact that they are ripping people off, and choking the processor.
sorry.
