Hey guys, I haven't been around much lately, but school has started and haven't had much free time. (and parents rules :tongue: )
Well, this past Tuesday, I got my parts and put my comp together. From opening the case to finishing installing and setting up the OS, it took me only 4 hours!! And remember, this was my first build.
So here's my current system, tell me what you think. I can tell you I'm lovin it!!
Antec PLUS1060 w/ 330W TruePower PSU
P4 2.4B 133MHz FSB; 512K L2
ASUS P4B533
512MB Samsung PC2700 DDR RAM "DTL" :frown:
80GB Western Digital 800JB
Sony 16X DVD-ROM
LG 32x10x40x CD-RW
MSI Geforce4 Ti4200 128MB
3x80mm case fans
I get <A HREF="http://service.madonion.com/compare?2k1=4590695" target="_new">9957 3D Marks</A> stock speed with DDR266 2-2-5-2T. Gonna run it faster and see how I do. Still trying to break the 10000 barrier stock speed. Gonna see if I can do 2-2-5-1.5T for the RAM.
Well, may this be a lesson for all. I was a total n00b and I built my comp from scratch no prob. Saved me money, gave me way more tweaking ability than an OEM system and gave me the satisfaction of doing something myself. :lol:
I'll post benches and stuff when I start overclocking today . Can't wait!!
...And all the King's horses and all the King's men couldn't put my computer back together again...
