Building the right PC - AMD v Intel?

There was one with no window for less money.

 

yea man thats the one im talking about.mine sits on the floor and looks pretty.too old to cary a pc aroud to a lan party[lol]if he`s going to take to lan parties this isnt the case for him.this case is for gamers that like a nice solid case that isnt to heavey to take out from under desktop ,when and if you have too and work on it.its light in that cense of light,not steel,but if your going to strap this on your back,dont buy,as lava lamp said.not that type of case,more like an elegant case thats lights up nice,is very quit,and looks pretty, wouldnt you say lava lamp.i thought there was two the same,one aluminium and one steel/ aluminium was the one with no window,sorry about that.i was alittle cranky last night ,sould of change my name,i was bad[lol]well anywhy, this dudes or babes heatsink and fan is working.feels good when you can help somebody out even though i went through some changes[lol]...peace

 

It is the side door that most impresses me. Solid, hinged and easy to shut and open. It makes for a satisfying build experience.

 

hey don,
also like the fact that you can take the two cages out[hard drive and floppy]that gives you so much room to put the mobo in,who needs a removeable mobo right?thats what i liked about it, besides what you said, and there is so much more...lol...just like i said, this case is just awesome right?[lol]love that lava lamp[lol]

 

god i didnt think you were still posting chris, banking that good is it.

I have a gigabyte 916p (ga-81915P : intel express)
64 bit board but not the windows xp 64 bit version as it seems there are still to many problems with it.Give it a year and maybe there will have them sorted

suggest you get the sata drives as 1. they are faster
and 2. no more of the crappy ribbons just thin cables link one hd to the 2nd etc.

nice card slightly better than the fx 6600 pci that i run (with pci express)

Nice amount of ram but doesnt this support the same as mine 4gig in 2 gig sims

would also suggest you get a dvd rom drive as well depending on how you burn your dvds

the rest looks ok but maybe get one of those anti rsi keyboards that also comes with an optical wireless mouse.

 

love that ninja,but look at that lava lamp bubble[lol].hey,andmerr how are you doing?sorry about the misunderstanding on dvd forum in post.sometimes words in the two countries are so different[lol].well im glad to see your still around helping.still cant figure out this damn dvd burner,i must have 10 dvds that will only play in the pc but i have been reading alot and i am going to give it another go at it.thanks for your help.i will be back to dvd forum soon when i buy more disks.i will be looking for your help mate.again sorry,hope we are back on the right foot again....peace

 

rugripper theres nothing to apologise for, all cool.


Lets ee if we can fix that dvd vd problem

 

Thanks for the replies again guys. Im still around Andmerr, just not posting so everyone else can catch up with my c.7500 posts lol...nah just kidding, i am just too busy for much posting or gaming or anything.

As for building the PC, I wouldnt mind building it myself, and i appreciate the offer of help in doing that. Im just not sure if i can commit a few hours to building and testing my own system. I remember i used to build systems quite a lot, built 12 seperate ones inside a month about 2 years ago lol.

But seriously, i am liking the idea of getting it build. Im buying from Konplett.co.uk and they allow you to make a lot of choices with regards to what you want to put in it. They dont give you free range though. My choices are these so far:

- AKASA Powersupply ATX/EPS 12V 550W
- Corsair TWINX2048-3200C2 DDR-DIMM 2048MB
- Gigabyte GeForce 7800GT 256MB DVI
- Cooler Master Wave Master Black
- Samsung 19" LCD Syncmaster 930BF TCO-99
- Sony Floppy Drive, 3,5" 1,44MB Black
- Asus A8N-SLI, nForce4 SLI, Socket-939
- AMD Athlon 64 X2 4400+ 2.2GHz Socket
- Seagate Barracuda 7200.8 250GB SATA
- Logitech Cordless Desktop MX3000,
- Sony DVD±RW burner, DRU-810A, 16x, Dual,

 

why not wait on the hard drives a little longer.Terrabyte ones are actually droping in price.Within the last 3 months they have dropped by around $200 aus.

2 of those puppies and you wont need much more

As for the post count think you'll need to do a bit more as creaky's passed your total and ddp is over 10,000, scubapete is also around that mark and neph well think he's up to about 15000.Me well i'm near the 4000 mark

o' chris still think it would be a good idea to have another rom/burner as well

 

thanks kool,i`ll see you in the dvd forum soon thanks again for your help.dont want to go off subject here and get yelled at again[lol]....peace....had to make sure, dont like bad blood.still love that ninja...lol

btw my name is chris too,you through me alittle[lol]
