It is actually just an online friend that I am assisting when he has questions and what not.
He is hoping to be building it late May. He says he has about $1,000 to work with.
He wants to get a P4 3.0/3.06 (He wants the Hyperthreading).
That's about all he knows. He isn't too hardware savvy.
As far as a motherboard. I am an Asus fan and told him he should either go with them or Abit, or possibly even Gigabyte.
I know he is gonna want/need a board that can handle some speedy ram (No less than 3100 for sure).
That's about all he has said. He is building the full rig from scratch (Minus probably the CD ROM/R/RW drives).
I'm just looking for some suggestions. Any good input/insight to give him...
Thanks guy, you are always a big help.
