help!!! need a new computer THE BEST POSSIBLE

[PV5150]

So when are you looking at purchasing all this, all together or in bits and pieces. As the X2 is yet to be made available for purchase, the items we list here for you may not necessarily be the best when it comes time for you to acquire them. My advice is read up on components, ask peeps what they find works best with what and don't restrict yourself to purchasing based on hype....make yourself informed.

[FragTek]

I'd build an X2 system to experiment with... I just don't think they're gonna be worth a shit in the overclocking department tbqh... Could be wrong though

You dont want that much memory dude, thats gonna kill the speed of it completely. Stick with a pair of 512mb sticks if possible, even 2x1gb sticks is stretching it a bit.

 

[{TAS}Lone Shadow Wolf]

First quick list of parts that I would choose if I has the money:

1 x DFI SLi-DR Motherboard

1 x AMD 64 X2 CPU - Dual core 2.4GHz 1mb L2

2 x 512mb Gskillz PC4800 RAM or OCZ PC3200 Rev 2 Platinum (1GB)

2 x 512mb 6800Ultra's

1 x OCZ Powerstream 600w PSU

1 x Any decent 19" TFT Screen with 16ms or lower refresh rate

1 x Lian Li PC-V2100 Full Tower Case (like this one: http://www.kustompcs.co.uk/acatalog/info_1015.html)

1 x Any DVD-RW

1 x Floppy drive if ya wanna (can get one with 7in1 card reader.

2 x WD Raptor 74GB 10000RPM SATA HDD (in RAID 0)

1 x 300GB SATA HDD (storage only)

1 x Razor DiamondBack 1600DPI Optical Mouse

1 x Ratpadz Mousemat

Bet I've missed something!

Yes...yes I did - a Mach II GT for super-cooling

No - probably a nice Air-cooling setup if you don't want to fiddle around too much!

Well that lot would cost a bomb...so a budget and probs someone who knows where to get the stuff would be nice!

i think thts a pretty good setup with the X2 is that the 4800+ model? :worship: :worship:

 

[{TAS}Lone Shadow Wolf]

any one got any idea on how much tht would cost in aussie dollars????

If I had to take a stab at it w/o looking over that list too hard....

$4500 USD, dunno what that turns out to be in AU dollars, something like $8000 maybe? That's w/o the Mach II, hehe.
