Mako's buying a new computer!

here you go also i advice u return that 5500, its just a OCed 5200 and the 5200 is too slow to really make use of the 256mb ram, its called marketing they know people will buy the cards based on the ram on the card it self instead of the card performance.

The PSU is needed for the mobo the mobo req a True ATX 2.0 12volt psu not a 20 pin 23029watts but a true ATX 2.0 12V.

Also the mobo is the best PCIE 939 mobo you can get. the XL matches the 6800GT some games the 6800GT edge out and some games the XL edges out.

atm the X800XL PCIE(279) is the cheaper then the PCIE 6800GT(350) Both will play games great.

also you can just oc the cpu past a 3400+. jus lower the ram divier down and regain it by ocing the cpu. u can get past the 3400+ with ease. on a stock cooler

Also Amd is not gonna have DDR2 for a while and DDR2 has higher lageny then DDR1 and use higher CL. which you dont want to use with a AMD.

This what i recommand.

$993.52 ( you should have enough left over after u return that 5500)

i went by this 1000 that he said he never did give a real budget. if he did then the part list would be diffent.



all you did is talk and attacked me thats all you did. i built more computers and made more part list then you.

i not gonna give him cheap no name mobo, ram and psu to keep the prices down, you dont want to get cheap no name ram psu and mobo. thats 3 parts that you dont want to get cheap no name brand for. cuz it will come bak and bite you in the butt.


Heres one for a 700 dollar budget if he used his current card but i dont recommand that he does use his current card . this is to prove to you that i can, while u haven proved it. change the cpu to a64 2800 754 and a mobo then it can get under 500. also where you list that you said you can do.
