i am an amd user, and quite frankly im fed up with amd.
im running an amd t-bird 1.33 ghz that runs idle temps at 48C (non oc'd)
it really ****es me off i just spent $790 on new components and cooling supplies and this is what i get in return. so im thinking of switching over to intel. (6 case fans, ArticSilver 3 (which IS applied correctly) and a new psu, a new case, new crucial ddr ram, a new antec psu and the list goes on oh yeah and the coolermaster HHC-001 HS, (upgraded from a thermalright sk6))
however i dont have the cash to shell out for all the stuff i need for a P4 (new mobo, HSF, cpu, etc...)
so i was wanting to go with a PIII which i could overclock. (whats the fastest they come 1.13?)
here is my system specs at the moment:
AMD Tbird 1.33 GHZ
Coolermaster HHC-001 HSF (with a 92mm 60cfm fan still 48C idle)
ASUS A7A266 (i'd rather not buy asus, im not impressed)
512 megs of Crucial PC2100
Geforce 3
SoundBlaster Xgamer 5.1
Antec 400 watt psu
Chieftec full tower case
my nic,
thats about it.
what do you guys think i should get in the PIII line? im not one to skimp on the mother board, i want one that can be overclocked, and must have ddr cuz im not going to shell out more money for sdram when i have more than enough ddr on hand. jumperless is preferable but if there isnt one its ok.
thanks in advanced,
