Ok, so I'm building a new rig, and was thinking about getting a p4 2.4c on an abit IC7 canterwood board, but have been enouraged to reconsider and get an athlon based rig (more economical, not much performance difference).
So here is my proposed set up, I would welcome any opinions or advice about how to improve it, or if my money would be better spent on other things.
AMD Barton XP2500+ 333FSB
Sapphire ATI Radeon 9800 128MB (non pro)
Abit KV7 KT600 Motherboard
OCZ 512MB PC3200 Performance Series EL-DDR CAS2
Enermax EG465AX-VE(G)(FMA) 460W PSU
Maxtor Serial ATA 80GB 8MB Cache <----- x2 for raid 0
also, would there be any advantage to getting a matched pair of memory modules as opposed to one stick of 512?
Thanks in advance.
