You got okay CPU, however your GPU is crap, and is effectively bottlenecking your system. For this kind of system you should've went for a dual core at most.
Also what's the point of 650W PSU? It's a really huge overkill.
@joshhua5 I still use it (up'ed the ram + win7) and it devours pretty much every game i throw at it. The latest ones being codmw2 and Assassins 2. Maxed these two out at 1650x1080. I also have an acer laptop which is pretty high end. I dont get why people bother with expensive hardware upgrades when all your old box needs is some good maintenance and cleaning every now and then. All these idiots can happily waste a couple o' grand every year to gain that 5 extra fps boost, I couldnt care less.
well it depends on other factors as well...such as what brand, which family..but assuming theyre the same brand and family..i wud go for the 2.6 with 1024 cache.
hey thanks for the quick responce , its the athlon 5200+x2 and 5400+x2 i'm comparing so from your responce i guess the 5200+x2 w 1024 cache is better.
I just built my gaming rig with a asus p5n-d nforce 750i sli mobo got it for £100 new. Its amazing for the price. I got Q6600 @ 3GHz with 3GB Ram and 2 X geforce 9600GT's in SLi with everything overclocked. Check out my videos if ya want. Subscribe
i enjoy how a vast amount of people who build custom computers put somethine along the lines of Plays crysis on yadadada settings in the first 2 sentences of their info introduction
auctually, hes the smarter one. Why? In about 6 months or so, your rigs parts will drop in prices alot and I BET there will be new graphic cards, new processors ( AMD is coming out with some pretty good processors) by then.
i tried 8GB ram and its a waste unless u do 3D and stuff 4GB is enough, even thought, im running crysis at max with just 4GB DDR2 1066 and ati 4870 x2 + AMD x4 9550
hey im new to custom computers. i am getting some parts to make my first one this christmas. is it possible that i can e-mail someone the specs to see if everything is compatible. everything i picked out is running just over $2k! i need to lower the price. PM me your email if you will help. THANKS
erm, yea it would, ifact it would be better having it at the other side cus u could also have a rear exhaust fan pulling the war air from the fan straight out, lol
i already have a rear fan, and a fan at the front which is why i need a fan in the mid section so that cool air flows the front and the rear fan acts as an exhaust. having a fan in the middle also keeps my hard drive and other parts cool. In any case, my ram isnt blocked although its about 2mm away from the fan.
I just bought a new comp. but when warrante runs out. i plan to take it out of its case and put it in a antec 900 :D its got Q6600. im gonna overclock it. 4GB of ram. 640Gig harddrive and a shitty ATI Radeon HD3650. but i will get bigger power supply and maybe new motherboard. for my 9800GTX Superclocked X2. my dream XD
no vista pwens it's good for the new games that's why xp don't have windows live or any of that because it's time to upgrade dude vista FTW!!!! WOOOOT
you see. vista is totaly for gaming, but when you look at just raw power of your system in terms of vista vs xp the xp will be on top but if you got a high end rig go 4 vista, i use xp on mine, but 4 hardcore rigs... vista ultimate
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
This looks like it's trying to be a tutorial, but it doesn't really do that very well...Pretty good specs, though. What day is good for mine to rape yours? xD
haha dude im like watching this in the beginning, andwhen i see 680i, i just totally know that you just screwed up your build, cant overclock with 680i mate!!
i think it shud..although u shud prolly do a google on that particular product first..i was reluctant to get vista at first..but so far im more than happy with it.
yeah thats wat i was worried about at first..but its not as heavy as it looks..it fits right in without any trouble or putting any strain on the mobo.
My laptop beats this desktop.
