Hey peeps, my dad needs a new puter so i thought ill let him have this one and i build up a ultracool one once and for all... now i have to decide what to get:
AMD Setup
AMD AthlonXP 2100+ (very likely to oc up to 2300-2400MHz) $85
Asus a7n8x $150
keep my ax7, thus buy a cheapo fan for current comp $12
Intel Setup
MCX400B $50
Asus P4PE $116
Intel P4 C1 .... WHICH ONE??
Other than that, i will buy cheapo stuff for my dads comp and recycle my hd, case, tornado and stuff.
Im an AMD fanboy now because i had not that much money at the time i bought my current comp, but dad has some major $$$ thus im considering the premium intel needs... Theres just a big if...
I WANT TO HIT 3.0-.2GHZ ON AIR FOR SURE NO BS!!! Otherwise i will just go the cheap and secure way and get amd again.
If my oc knowledge is right, i must hit for the lowest rated c1 in order to take advantage of my current memory and thus a high FSB. Could you guys pls post the memory dividers available on this mobo for 133+MHz FSB???
So pls suggest a place to get ensured c1 batches for lets say, a p4 1.8ghz c1...
Sorry if i sound demanding, any help appreciated
