I want to buy a Computer for gaming. I'm looking at the KT-333 Platform with either a MSI KT3-Ultra or an Asus A7V333. I also thinking about an Intel P4 platform with either an Asus P4B533 or a Gigabyte GA-8IEXP. Is the Pentium too much since I don't want to spend over $1100-$1200 on the case. I will be using DDR 2700 Memory, don't want the RDRam. I want to buy something that will allow me to keep up a year or two down the road so this is also a factor. If I go with the AMD I was thinking about a 2000+ or the Pentium with a 2.0 GHz. One of my big questions is if the 533 FSB is worth it or necessary. In the gaming spirit I'm looking at a Leadtek GF4 ti 4200 128 DDR video card. I can't quite afford the 4600 and I may try to overclock it with the dual fans built in. I've heard great things about Light-On CDRW drives as well. I was thinking about a 40x12x40 version. Maxtor seems to be a good choice for a HD as well probably a 60 GB version. THe sound issue is one I haven't figured out yet. Is the on board sound going to be sufficient if I'm only going to have two speakers and a subwoofer. I'm not planning on playing movies on this machine. Any other suggestion, comments or info is welcome. Thanks!
