hi, I have been building computers for a little while now, and i decided today that I would offer people 4 choices of computer systems if they dont want to have a totally custom one. If you could look at the ones below and give me any ideas on what to change but keep the computers in the same price range (or lower) that would be great. Home Basic Computer Includes: -Thermaltake Wing RS 100 Piano Black Case -Intel Pentium Dual Core E2140 1.6GHz -Asus P5L-MX Mainboard -Crosair 1GB 667MHz Memory -Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950 -LG SATA LightScribe DVD and CD writer -Seagate 160GB SATA hard drive -Thermaltake Power supply -Windows Vista Home Basic -AVG Anti-Virus $779.95 (total price) Performance Computer Includes: -Thermaltake Wing RS 100 Piano Black Case -Intel Core 2 Duo E6420 2.13GHz -Asus P5K-SE Mainboard -2GB (2x1GB) 800MHz Extreme Performance RAM -BFG GeForce 8500GT 256M graphics card -LG SATA LightScribe DVD and CD writer -Seagate 320GB SATA hard drive -Thermaltake Power supply -Windows Vista Home Premium -AVG Anti-Virus $1199.95 (total price) Extreme Performance Computer Includes: -Thermaltake Matrix VX w/ window -Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 2.4GHz -Asus P5W DH Deluxe -2GB (2x1GB) 800MHz Extreme Performance RAM -BFG GeForce 8800 GTS Graphcis Card -LG SATA LightScribe DVD and CD writer - Seagate 640GB(2x320GB) SATA hard drive -OCZ GameXStream Power Supply -Windows Vista Home Premium -AVG Anti-Virus $2049.95 (total price) Gaming Computer Includes: -Antec Nine Hundred Case -Intel Core 2 QUAD CORE QX6700 2.66GHz -Asus P5W DH Deluxe -3GBs of Extreme Performance RAM -BFG GeForce 8800 GTX 768MB graphics memory -LG SATA LightScribe DVD and CD writer -Seagate 1000GB (500GBx2) SATA hard drive -OCZ GameXStreme Power supply -Windows Vista Home Premium -AVG Anti-Virus $2889.95 Thanks for any imput. If you would like to see the whole booklet i made then i need to send it as a word document.
looks good to me... To me it seams like the Extreme Performance Computer has alot of HDD space, maybe to much....
I think the extreme's Hard disk space is reasonable, I've filled 1300GB of my storage array, and I need to re-organise it soon! I think it should probably have 2 or 4GB of RAM though rather than 3GB, it'll probably run better that way. As for the performance computer, the 8500GT is ass, put a 7600GS or 7600GT in. Even the 7600GS beats the 8500GT senseless.
Don't I need a 64bit OS for that to show up? My plan was accually to put 4GBs of RAM in there, and just have 3 show up. I will look into that, but what if people want support for direct x 10?
Then it's gonna need to be an 8600GTS, I suggest doing that on request. Unlike previous generations, the 8000 series (well, the midrange cards anyway) are no faster than the previous version for the same number, i.e. an 8600GT is the same as a 7600GT, not faster.
