Hey guys.
This will be my very first AMD based rig and I have some questions. Here is what I'm getting.
AMD 64 3200
DFI Lanparty UT Ultra-D NF4
Ocz Plat rev2 pc3200 v1.1
Sapphire x800gto2
Ocz 420w powerstream
Western Digital 250GB SATAII 16MB 3.5-in HDD 7200rpm
I will be using Windows XP pro w/sp2.
Now on to the questions, sorry, I do have a few
#1-Which core is better based on the 3200? (WINCHESTER) or (VENICE)
#2-How long are the powerstream cables?I will need them to fit in a tower case with the mobo at bottom,instead of at the top.
#3-Will I need any special drivers at boot up to install just this one sata2 drive? Also which sata slot should I use?
#4-What DFI bios will be decent for an AMD 64 3200+My Ocz ram?
#5-I have read about the Nf4 chipset drivers. What should I be installing? I dont need the nvidia firewall. When installing the chipset drivers do I have a choice as to what I want installed?
#6-Which two slots should the memory be use in this board?dual channel.
Thanks for your time guys.
