Hey everyone just built my first computer. What do you guys think. out of 10? out lof low - mid - high? Whatever you want, here are the specs: Amd 3700+ (Overclocked to 2.7Ghz) A8N-Sli Mobo X1800Gto Sapphire 2Gb Ram Pc3200 ( 2 x 512mb Dual channel Corsair ) , ( 2x 512mb unknown brand dual channel!) Evo33 Alaska Heatsink Alien Case (Search ebay for it) Floppy Dvd LG 16X -+ 8 Fans 160Gb HDD Soon to be 240Gb Jeantech 450W PSU Cheers, im doing this as i want to see the difference in rating compared to my old computer which was in short Sempron 3000 Asus Av600-x X700 256mb Radeon 1.5Gb Pc3200 Ram
I give it a 7.75, due to the fact u have a ATI card on a nVidia chipset! Power supply is ok, Antec would be a booster and a 500 watt at that. Processor is pretty good no complaints there. Here's my rig: i just recently upgraded so pay no attention to my sig Thermaltake Tsunami(modded for the Raptor window so u can see it) AMD Athlon X2 4800+ Oc'd to 2.8GHz Asus A8N-SLI Delux 8 GB of Cosair Ram (using the 4 slot PCI card) 2 x nVidia 7900 GTX both Oc'd BFG AGEIA PhysX card Antec 550 watt PSU 850 GB of HDD space (1 Raptor 150 GB with the window) 2 x Plextor DVD-Ram burners both at 18x speed I think it's a 10? i dunno that's my guess
I hate you! Hows dual core? Just wondering does dual core mean all together from that u get 5.6Ghz?? Cheers lecsiy
WOW, im surprised you can run all of that with a 550 watt powersupply. I think your power supply should be more at about 750w to 1kw. I'm pretty sure those GPU's need a lot of power. It's a good rig, but they powersupply has to go. That cpu is also pretty demanding as I have it myself. Take a look at this psu. It should be enough. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=N82E16817256006 A little pricey, yes, but those 7900's do require a lot of power in order to render graphics properly.
@lecsiy : I give it a 10 for average gamers and a 8.0 for hardcore gamers. It's a nice rig indeed and will play anything out there maxed out.Also no that doesn't mean 5.6 ghz because a 5.6 ghz will smoke any dual core on the market.However dual core is a powerful new option and is better than a single core... @AxFactor nice ride man I wish I had that! You got ageia damn! Man when more games start supporting it that will be awesome. @a7xsoad The 550 watt would do fine.750 watt is overkill and will make noise and heat up everything.But I know what you mean.
Id say a 7. I have an x2 3800 and its great. Im not a fan of ATI and you could have a better ram setup (2 1gb sticks are better than 4 512 sticks).
Are you sure? I thought the ebst setup would be: 2 x 512mb Dual channel 1 x 1gb bit of ram! Or maybe just: 2 x 512mb Dual channel 2 x 512mb Dual channel
