I already have a graphics card (ATi X700 Pro 256MB PCI-E)

 

Anyone wanna help me finish finding parts for this? I need to keep it around £400-450 though. Don't worry about RAM, I'll get some off of eBay, seems to be alot cheaper, I found brand new 2GB RAM on eBay for about £10 more than 1GB in shops. I don't really know fuck all about sockets or any of that shit, all I want is the processor and graphics card to fit, any help is greatly appreciated.

get yourself a nice MSI Lga 775 socket board to go along with that cpu

make sure its compatible with your ram + has sata

screw that ata hdd and get a sata hdd, 3gb a sec = fast......

get a good cpu cooler

w00t, thanks < 3

 

IM COMPUTER IGNORANT

 

To a certain degree

 

EDIT: Do I acutally need one like that expensive? Could I get a good one for abit cheaper that's still PCI-E?

 

EDIT TWO: http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?MSI-915GNP

 

Eh? Saves me abit of cash for other shit.

yea u can get a cheaper board as long as it had pcie, lga775 w/ 800mhxz fsb and it supports your ram

(http://www.novatech.co.uk/novatech/specpage.html?MSI-915GNP<--uses ddr2 make sure u get ddr2 then)

Alright, thanks for the help bro. :D

I think its crap all around,

 

why an intel processor? I wouldnt be caught dead with an Intel Processor if I had the choice.

 

here you go:

 

AMD X2 3800+

Socket 939 nForce 4 Motherboard compatable with the X2, with PCI-Express 16x

2GB PC3200 DDR

SATA Hard Drive

nVidia GeForce 7800GT (or GTX) 256mb (ATi sucks ass k?)

 

Ill find the parts on newegg and put the links here later today, off to bed for me.

well, then tigerdirect maby?

 

all i know is, you need to get what I said k? the stuff you have now isnt worth the money it costs, espessially since its not AMD.

 

youd really be satisifed if you got a PCI-E 16x GeForce 7800, they are the bossliest cards out there.

Don't have that much to spend, only about $700

I would advise getting an AMD for gaming- the AMD Opteron 148 has served me well in all intensive situations... BF2, HL2, HL2: Lost Coast, BF2: SF, F.E.A.R.- I can run em all at max settings with very limited "map change lag" and a good FPS

 

I run:

 

AMD Opteron 148 @ 2.2 ghz OC'ed to 2.5 ghz

nVidea GeForce 7800 (GT or XT or soemthing T XD dont' remember which and I'm at school right now)

1 gig DDR2 Ram

SB Audigy 2 ZS Plat sound card

nVidia is for jews, sir.

 

I just lost all respect for you SOBEIT, you are removed from my friend list for that comment

 

NVidia own yuor face k?

i'll probably get flamed for saying it but oh well.

 

sometimes if you look around for coupons online, you can get a very good deal on dell pcs. i got one that was top of the line, but with a shitty graphics card and didn't order a monitor or speakers. it was like 600 dollars. i upgraded to a new video card later and hoooked it up to my stereo and the crt monitor i already have. works great for me and didn't cost me too much, plus dell's tech support is good for broken keyboard/mouse/speakers, because they just airmail you a new one and let you set the old one outside for pickup. whenever i get too much dried cum, cheeto crumbs, and pubic hair stuck in my keyboard, i just order a new one.

 

i'm not saying it's your best option, but it's worth looking into before actually putting the cash down for parts.

yeah the amd proc 4200+ that i have is a lot less for the money than intels brand whihc would be the 820 or 830 and performs better with the hyper transport bus of like 1600 or 2000 mhz and and the high closk speed for multitasking. the 3800+ is still great though and is better than intel's 600 verisons by far. for a mobo i would choose either the A8NE or the SLi versio if you are going to use crossfire with your ATI card.

This is what im getting pretty soon, just need to order the parts *pops a boner*

Some of the things are pretty low in price but are really nice for how low the price is, had to go cheap, if $1269.00 is cheap for a really good custom build computer.

 

COMPUTER CASE

POWER SUPPLY

MOTHER BOARD

GRAPHICS CARD

CD BURNER

DVD/CDROM

HARD DRIVE

PROCESSOR

TWO HALF ASSED FANS

KEYBOARD

SOUND CARD

RAM, TWO OF THESE (4GIGS KEKE)

MICROSOFT XP(WILL DOWNLOAD LINUX LATER)

 

TOTAL= $1269.00

 

(also didnt need new mouse or monitor, but needed a new keyboard cause i spilled fucking milk on it and had to bust it open and wash it out, some keys still fucking stick. To add to that I did it again not too long after that. So dont eat milk and cookies at your computer, people, for fucks sake.)

 

 

AND CAN YOU BELIEVE THIS FUCKING GRAPHICS CARD IS WORTH MORE THAN THIS WHOLE COMPUTER?: FUCK

i have a pentium with water coolin on it , and it works just fine... the diference is that mine is 3.6.
